Disable Start a chat button on loading

[valepetros]

Hello,

I've implemented a chat using ChatGPT AI Module and works fine!
When User starts a chat, the system needs 3-4 seconds until the chat definetly starts without having a feedback (like a spinner for example) so sometimes he presses multiple times the "start a chat" button.

How can I solve this problem?
Can I use a css class or a callback js function?

Thanks

Two things

• You should be using php-resque extension and offload all rest api calls to background worker. Will eliminate this problem at the core
• Perhaps you are using older start chat form, because new widget does not have this problem and forbids this issue on it's own. Demo address https://demo.livehelperchat.com/chat/begin if you make slower bandwidth you would see that button is disabled as soon you click
