PHPFreeChat

Author: Philip M. Hofer (Frumph)

PHPFreeChat is a free, simple to install, fast, customizable and multi languages chat that uses a simple filesystem for message and nickname storage. It uses AJAX to smoothly refresh (no flicker) and display the chat zone and the nickname zone. It supports multi-rooms (/join), private messages, moderation (/kick, /ban), dice rolling and more!

PHPFreeChat is all contained on your server with no extra daemons or connections to other hosts.

Includes 2 widgets, showing who is online and the latest chatter going on in a chat channel you choose.

Warning: This is untested with quite a few hosts, it uses sessions and mysql-innodb, ctype-* functions and flock.

  • Once activated add a page in wordpress and put [phpfreechat] in it.
  • Go to the dashboard -> settings -> phpfreechat settings and change settings, save.
  • Remember to save the settings once and all of the settings are appropriate.
  • To refresh your settings after making changes, change your name to admin with the command /nick admin and type /identify <password> the password being the one you set in options, then type /help to get a list of commands, /rehash resets all the settings to what was changed in the dashboard administration.
