Based on PHPFreeChat.NET.
PHPFreeChat is a free, simple to install, fast, customizable and multi languages chat that uses a simple filesystem for
message and nickname storage. It uses AJAX to smoothly refresh (no flicker) and display the chat zone and the
nickname zone. It supports multi-rooms (/join), private messages, moderation (/kick, /ban), dice rolling and more
Installation:
Upload the phpfreechat directory to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
Activate the plugin through the Plugins menu in WordPress
Go to Settings -> PHPFreeChat Settings and set our options once.
Create a page on your site and embed the shortcode [phpfreechat] inside the page.
faq:
This is not fully tested on all hosting/server types.
The theme looks corrupted in IE8.
Add this to your header
<?php if ( is_page(chat) ) { ?>
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=7" />
<?php } ?>
where is_page(chat) is the page your phpfreechat resides on, rename the word chat for your page name.
Page doesnt come up, or stops with the loading box.
This is generally due to the page being cached, with wp-supercache and the like you can specify which pages dont get cached, this is one of them. =
Warning: session_start() [function.session-start]: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent
This means that your there is a session problem usually another plugin is already creating the sessions, contact me to further debug, WebComic Planet Forums
Uh, what are the requirements of my web host?
Same as the standalone phpfreechat - REquired COnfiguration
Im having another problem.
Check the PHPFreeChat Forums.
Make sure youre running the most recent stable version of Wordpress - PHPFreeChat,
as there are a lot of critical bug fixes between versions.
If its a serious problem, such as WordPress becoming non-functional or blank screens/errors after you perform certain
operations, you will be asked to provide error logs for your server. If you dont know how to get access to these,
talk with your Webhost. At that time just remove the plugin from the plugins/ directory. If it still
continues it is probably not a PHPFreeChat problem.
