Re: Online chat
Sure I can, if you let me know what modules for phpBB3 allows that I will gladly investigate it.
Re: Online chat
Hi Paul,
No idea if this would be any use, but as you know a lot more about php than I do, I'm sure you'll find it interesting. http://www.gagalive.com/live/livechatexamplephpbb3

Re: Online chat
Hi Paul, now need to let everyone know it's up and running. Maybe post it on every board topic.
Re: Online chat
The chatroom works OK, although there was no one there at the time - I could see conversation from a (short) chat earlier though.
What about organising regular chat time/days along with including time zones so there's no confusion?
I would have one/two big regular chats every week but if people want to talk every day, that would be no problem either

Re: Online chat
Hi Paul, it would be good if we could have some way of knowing if the chat room was active. Every time I come to this site I look to see how many registered users and guests are on. If there are/is a registered user, except the likes of Google etc, then I log on and go to the chat room. Todate I have never met someone in it.

Re: Online chat
The forum and chat room operates separate from each other. If a user want to chat they can go to the chat room, if they do not want to chat they will most likely only spend their time on the forum. Personally I hate when I am on a site and a chat window popups. However when I am in the mood for killing time I will go to the chat section of a site and wait till something happens.
My guess is that most users of this site do not want to chat, hence they do not go to the chat room.
