I'm looking for a new Chat Room Feature for my site. Right now we are using one but it's not much to write home about.

I would love to have it so that when folks click to enter the chat from my site, they are automatically signed in with their account/login name and password from my vBulleting site.

Even if that's not possible, at least something decent.

So, who can recomend a good chat feature for me to look into for my site. Also, do you know if it's possible to find a good one that will work with or use my members existing login/acct and password for the chat names and login.

Thanks!!!

Flashchat will do that for ya.

www.tufat.com for the script

And search here for Flashchat in thread titles only (I believe Paul M made the mod) for the vB integration. I wrap mine in Logician's Webtemplate hack (also available here) and it works very well.

It will log you in/out as your membername, and recognize you as the admin (and your mod staff) as well.

Nice, Thanks! Is it a free application or do I have to pay for the software?

It's five bucks for the script. :) Well worth it for something that so easily installs/integrates, imo, and there really isn't a better chat (in my opinion, again) out there that just works without cross-browser madness or server load issues.
