[Ajax] Chatbox by:Dream


Please click Mark as Installed if you use this modification >>>>

This adds a simple Chatbox to your forum home for your members to chat in.

The Chatbox is like a thread, members leave small messages in it for others to see. Think of it as an off-topic thread that never ends. The Chatbox can also help keep chatting out of the threads.

This mod is light on the server, it uses little server resources to work. The default refresh rate is set to 5 minutes. You can disable automatic refreshing entirely in the options.

Warning: If you set your refresh rate to 10 seconds this mod stops being so light on the server. You can do it, but be sure your server can handle it.

Features:
- Ajax (no page refreshes)
- Pages
- Set refresh rate in seconds
- Hide Chatbox contents from certain user groups
- Set user groups that can't send messages but can view chatbox
- Moderator user groups that can delete messages
- Prune messages by user ID, user name, days old or all
- Enable/disable smilies, bbcode and [ img ]
- Automatic URL parsing
- Users can delete their own messages
- Smilies popup with all smilies you can use in messages
- Who's Online Support
- Show message dates or not
- User names linked and colored with their user group colors
- Banned Users
- Hide refresh button
- /me code
- Message colors
- Other misc options in the Admin Control Panel

Re: [Ajax] Chatbox by:Dream


i can't do chatboxes, IMO they detract from the site but to each there own, a lot of people use them and love them so its all good, i used to have them on my sites and the convos tended to get out of control so i nixed it

Re: [Ajax] Chatbox by:Dream


I'm not into chatboxes at all either.

They are annoying IMO. But, lots of other sites use 'em so I guess they serve a purpose.
