Code to add chatbox to the forum
« on: March 07, 2011, 04:08:20 pm »
Forum Url: onderkoffer.smfforfree3.com
We would like to add the smfforfree (Ajax) chatbox to the forum. Not just as a seperate tab, but in a board, or in the header or footer. I already found how I can do that, but now I need the HTML-code to do that. Can you write it for me please?
Thanks!

I would like the chat to the header (or footer) or in a boarddescription. Or to an EzBlock perhaps. I have read in serveral topics here that that's possible.
So now I need to know the html-code to do that (because I don't 'speak' HTML enough to figure it out myself ;)).

The Ajax Chat Addon for SMF for Free can not be done that way.   Once paid for, and set up, it is accessable via a tab on the tab bar (as you see here at Support)   That is how it works.

If you are looking for one that you can put in an Ezblock, Board description, or Header or Footer then you would need to find a different chatbox/shoutbox and get the code for it from them to use.

Here is a list of chat/shout boxes:
     
www.cbox.ws
www.yellbox.com
www.myshoutbox.com
www.shoutmix.com
www.shoutbox.us
www.tag-board.com
www.tagboards.tk
www.tagboardsite.com/
www.xat.com/
http://chatango.com/

I now integrated the shoutbox and chatroom on our forum. That's the option I was looking for!  :)
(Features and Options > Chat > Integrate shout box and chat room)

Doing it that way will only give you the option of the tab. Which is what you said you didn't want...

No, that's not true: We now have a shoutbox / chat on every page of the forum, which is the same as the chat from the tab.
