Probably asked before, chat in forum sidebar/block?
 

I'm looking for a chat option, like the shoutbox option, that will fit nicely into a forum block on my sidebar. Is there anything out there that might work for me? I've searched the forums, but can't seem to find anything that takes the shoutbox solution and moves it into a block.

Any ideas?

Bump...anyone aware of a sidebar chat solution that I can host? VBChat or the shoutbox, only I'd love to have it in a sidebar forum block...

Try this one....

I'll give it a shot. Are you sure it works in a forum sidebar block?

Not sure of anything.... ;) but if you go to the live demo link, it appears to be working in a side block just fine.
That might be a CMS widget but I'm fairly sure if it works in a widget it'll work in a forum block.

You do have a test install you can try it on... right?

Should ALWAYS try things out on a test vB before installing them on your live site.

It's installed and working great at the bottom of my forum. Actually it's not too bad, but I'd love to incorporate it into the widget...just not sure how.
