I am intrested in making a chat room for my forum, visible only to moderators. How may I go about doing this?

How do I integrate 3rd party chat applications to the forum?

Download ASPChatNow-v1.zip-81081.zip from http://www.aspchatnow.com/ and unzip to your WWF in a folder called chat. Inside that should have some folders like "Functions and images and files like default.asp and chatroom.asp etc If different just amend the path to the code below
 
Try this in includes/navigation_buttons_inc.asp. Only add what is in red
 
---------------------------------------------------%>------------------------------------
'Dispaly a welcome message to the user in the top bar
 If blnBanned = False Then Response.Write ("&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=""member_control_panel.asp" & strQsSID1 & """ class=""nav""><img src=""" & strImagePath & "admin_icon.gif"" border=""0"" align=""absmiddle"" alt=""" & strTxtMemberCPMenu & """ />" & strTxtSettings & "</a>")
 If blnModerator OR blnAdmin Then Response.Write ("&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=""chat/chatroom.asp?txtUsername=" & strLoggedInUsername & """ target=""_blank"" class=""nav"" accesskey=""2""><img src=""" & strImagePath & "chat1.gif"" align=""absmiddle"" border=""0"" alt=""Chat"" />Chat</a>")

Change the gif image to whatever you wanted but copy the gif to forum_images. I think that would work.
 
NOT TESTED SO BACK UP YOUR FILES FIRST.

I just tried the info below, which worked, but I had to manually type in my user name.
 
What else needs to be done to get it to transfer the user name to the chatroom?
 
I am missing something here  ;-)

Does your chat folder contain a file called chatroom_engine.asp?. If not try downloading it from http://downloads.invisionportal.com/mods/wwf/7.9/chatmod.zip. Delete all files and folders in the chat folder and then use the new ones. If so you need to add a bit more: You need to add the room name that you want to go to as setup in functions/setup.asp at about line 70

 

This is what I originally posted and below are the change from this in Blue.

Change the italic text to the room name. If there is a space in the name then put an underscore _ in.

Hi Justin,
 
I have all the files listed in that zip file.
 
I am running v8.03 now and the chat room is only for those users who are logged in.
 
When I click on the link, it doesn't take me directly into the chatroom, but asks me to put in my username.
 
The chatroom in general does appear to work with no problems, just the part of it not transferring the user name to the program doesn't appear to work.
 
Any thoughts on this?
 
Thanks for your help,

Rob
