IRC Style Chatroom for website

Dokinator · 30 Dec 2012 at 18:19

Just need a little help. I want to create a chat window on a website and need to be able to moderate it. Is there anything in-expensive and easy to set up that I can choose. I don't mind paying a small amount.

I can't remember the name of the script, but nearly all networks now run a javascript webchat for IRC of some sort, moderation of channels is the usual command line means of doing it as you would in an irc client.

I use Blab! chat on my website. Awesome chat script. Even the free version is quality.

Okay I now have 'Blab' installed. Does anyone know how I can edit the chat so that when a new user logs in, the chat is clear, and if I can display a system welcome message?

Probably will be in the config, read the readme that come with it maybe?

OK I have never installed this chat script, however I can see;

"install\config.dist"

There is a line;

$latest_mssg=20; // Messages to display when users enter the chat, recommended value: 0-50.

What you need to do is edit that to 0, save and that should work!

Also;

$topic='/topic';

^^ This will display a welcome message.

I will see how I get on

There already seems to be a line in the config file which says:

$topic='/topic'; // Topic. If found, the posted text appears with larger letters and clears the screen.

I forogt to say it needs to be an automated welcome message for new users that join the chat

maybe there is a site with all the additional settings for the config.php file?
