Your plugin appears to break my SSL certificate so no padlock appears on those pages where the plugin is installed. Do you know about this?

I tried this code:
[skype-status skype_id=“ronmann8888″ user_name=“ronald l. mann” button_theme=callme_mini_blue]
and it does not call ronmann8888. This is a secondary user I want to add. It calls to the Primary user defined in setup.
How do I get this secondary user to work?
Thanks,
Ron

]]>Version 3.0.2 of this plugin (and perhaps earlier versions) contains a readme.txt in which contains the following line:
– **Japanese** * Ryuei Sasaki https://ryueisasaki.com/ (version 2.8.2)
That web site has been identified as leading to various redirections to various scam/spam pages. I base this information on an analysis done by a highly reputable wordpress security firm.
While the presence of this URL in this file probably does not represent any direct danger to a site where it is installed, if a search engine detects it and flags the site as a risk, you could be in for some trouble.
I note that the same file also includes various other bad or broken links, probably just old and out of date stuff.
The author of the plugin might wish to do something about that file, however minor the issue might appear to some.
]]>I am getting this:

Runtime Error
Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.
Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a “web.config” configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its “mode” attribute set to “Off”.
<!– Web.Config Configuration File –>

</configuration>Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the “defaultRedirect” attribute of the application’s <customErrors> configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.

Are there Chinese versions of the buttons available? Thanks!

]]>Hello
I am trying to call from smartphone, from galaxy s5, but when I click “call me” button it opens a window where it says “download skype” .. “already have skype” which does not fit in mobile screen and freezes on the screen and does not give an option to continue to call.
How can i deactivate that screen and directly call when i click “call me” button?
thanks
]]>I wish to adda new template but I wonder if, if I add a template in template subdirectory of plugin, it could be removed next time I upgrade to new version. On the other hand I cannot use advanced options because template code uses PHP too. Where could I place that template? Do you have a shortcode that allow me to specify template url?
]]>I have a Dropdown placed on a contact page just above a contact form generated by ContactForm7. When I drop down the menu, the contact form fields are placed above the drop down menu, obscuring the dropdown options.
I was able to fix this with CSS, by adding “z-index: 1” to “#skypeDropdown-transparent, #skypeDropdown-white”.
Simple enough fix…might be of interest to anyone else experiencing the same issue with the dropdown!
]]>When I select any My Status button in the Settings or Widget area, it shows this text and no button.
“Call me – my test call
My status is Error”
Maybe this is related to the Skype May 15 changes. I also got the email.
It also shows a small icon which is typical when an image file is missing.
Until this is fixed, my only option is the “transparent” dropdown, which unfortunately not well branded as a Skype call.
A suggestion for the Transparent drop down. Provide the option to select which of the drop down changes are available… I frankly don’t want Transfer a file… this is an invitation to Spammers, and Sype Options doesn’t have a settings area to disallow this from “Anyone”
BTW. Most of the other buttons, including Custom button work fine, but they all have a white background. However, my website footer is dark, so I need buttons with transparent background. I don’t understand why you implemented buttons with a background at all, it really limits usability unless your website background is white.
Thanks for all your hard work… despite the issues reported, your plugin seems to work better than all the others I’ve tried.
]]>Hi, Skype sent me a message about changes that will take place on May 15th. This is going to affect the plugin? Do we have to do something?
Thanks
Update your old Skype buttons now
Hello
We’ll soon be making some important changes to our old Skype
buttons. These buttons allow customers to embed icons or
buttons on their website that show their Skype presence status
(for example, I’m online), by using an API.
After 15 May, 2015 all legacy Skype buttons that show your
presence will no longer work. You can replace these old buttons
with the new Call and Chat buttons.
Hello, I love your plugin, it’s very simple to use and well designed.
Is it possible to and a randomly generated parameter at the end of the Status Image Link such as below?
https://mystatus.skype.com/balloon/abc1234.png.en?dummy=1232141
This will prevent browser caching, therefore giving you a live status instead of cached one.
Thanks!
]]>Hi,
It’s a good plugin.
It works fine on desktop PC and my iPad.
However, it’s a prolbem for android mobile, Samsung S4.
When I try to click “call me”button, it will show the message box.
However it is not responsive and message box is out of my mobile screen. I can’t choose to open skype app on mobile.
Hope it would be fixed.
Anyway, thank you for your plugin.
Best regards,
Alvin
I have changed the text associated with {chat} from ‘Chat with me’ to ‘Skype chat’.
The change is not reflected in the page.
I noted a similar post about a year ago and you suggested that the issue was associated with the cache not being refreshed.
I have refreshed the cache and it makes no difference.
Pls advise.
Thanks
Hamish
p.s. A great plugin!
]]>Hello,
I use this plugin on my website since a few years, and never had issues, but since today under each button appears an error page from Microsoft website.
It seems there is a link to a page on Microsoft website which is not there anymore.
Can you resolve the issue? In the meanwhile I must disable it temporarily as it makes the website really ugly ??
Thanks!
Hello,
It fails for me to see this plugin on my website. Im using Avada theme. Can someone help me what to do?
]]>Hi,
I don’t know what I’m doing wrong, but even after entering all the tags and uploading a custom image (and modifying the template) I can’t seem to get the plugin to display in my language.

Please help!
]]>Are there plans to update this link:
https://www.skype.com/share/buttons/wizard/
which is both in the FAQ and in the dashboard settings options. I’m having a hard time getting the icon to show on my posts (from the quicktags).
When I get to the option from the kitchen sink to add the theme I am typing in the exact phrase from the theme I’ve selected (in this case it says: button_theme=”‘My status’ button (small icon)” ) and the quick tag seems to work but there is no icon.
I tried to look through the FAQ’s and followed that link but as I said it’s broken.
thanks!

]]>When i change my skype status to “away” it does not change the button to display the away status. Is this possible to do, if so how?
]]>Hi there, sorry if this is a repeat but I couldn’t see an answer…
I’m trying to change the Call me! on the drop down but can not work out how to do it.
In the online status options I did the following
“Tag texts
Define texts to replace their respective template tags relating to the Skype button action.” and change the label to what I wanted but its not reflected when saving.
It would be great if you could point me in the right direction.
Thanks.

]]>Hi RavanH, my site uses https only, when I activate the plugin, I get errors indicating that https://api.skype.com/detection/detection_as3.swf needs to be https.
Is there any option to enable this plugin on ssl only sites?
]]>-on smaller mobile screens the skype pop-up is LARGER THAN THE SCREEN, so buttons are inaccessible;
– having this box in english makes a multilingual site look bad;
– a user that clicks the skype button should have the Sype already downloaded, so I think the pop-up is “spam”.
Could this pop-up be disabled? I remember a skype link didn’t throw pop-ups, instead was opening skype chat instantly.
]]>WordPress 3.9
Wordpress 2012 theme
Skype Online Status version 2.9.5 (First install)
Site: SilverfishComputer.com
This plugin looked just right for my purposes and thanks to the developer. However I do have a problem with icons not being visible.
I have installed v2.9.5 for the first time.
Edited the setting as required, but there is no way I can get the Theme icons to be visible. There is a marker where the icons should be, but they are all transparent.
Using the Theme “‘My Status’ plain text link” does work, but I would much prefer icons.
Any ideas please, all helpful hints would be welcome.
Cheers
I want to know how to disable the skypeCheckNotice windows which appears when I klick on the skype button so it starts skype directly.
