About the Envolve Chat Plugin
This module will connect your vBulletin forum to Envolve chat. Envolve is a chat toolbar similar to Facebook's chat bar that allows your users to have group and one-on-one chats with each other while browsing your forums.

This mod requires an API key from Envolve in order to function. Visit http://www.envolve.com to get one. A free version is available that provides a full feature set for up to 25 concurrent users. Higher numbers of chatters require a paid account.

This mod integrates your forum's account system with Envolve so that when users are logged into your vBulletin site it also logs them into the chat. In addition, it integrates your profile pictures / avatars and profile information. With the 2.0 release of the mod, other users can now view your profile information and get a link to your profile simply by placing their mouse over your name.

The Envolve chat system is a rich solution for community chat. Some of its features include group chat (both public and private), one-on-one chat, the ability to pop chats out into their own windows, moderation controls (boot / block / ban / timed ban), chat message translation, resizable chat windows, chat sharing, and drag-and-drop chat invitations. As a hosted solution, all chat traffic is handled by Envolve's servers and will not place any additional load on your server.

Installation:
Detailed installation instructions can be found here:
https://www.envolve.com/docs/vbulletin-chat-plugin.html. They are also provided in the Readme.txt file.
You can see and try out the chat at http://www.envolve.com.

This version of the mod will work for both vBulletin 4.x and vBulletin 3.8.x.

Screenshots:
Here the "People List" can be seen open in the lower right hand corner of the page. This shows all users who are currently viewing the forum. This site owner has chosen to only allow logged-in users to chat.


Here a public group chat has been opened, and the user has moused-over another user to see his profile information.


Here a user is creating a new group chat that will be shown to the other users on the site. He has also "popped-out" the "General" chat into its own window.

There is no way this will work with tapatalk, tapatalk doesn't run the "hooks" that this mod uses. It's also not a web browser so javascript just won't work in it.

I purchased this plugin awhile ago but only thing I dont like is that I cant block members from typing in certain urls of competing boards or other things. Has Evolve changed so that I can get a list of banned words I dont want to show up in chat?

Thanks for the purchase vividbreeze! We don't yet have a way to block URLs from the chat. I don't know when that will be available, but we'll let you know when it is!.

FANTASTIC mod, however it is wayyyy too pricing. $24/mo?? Seriously? That's more than half of my whole phone bill of my iPhone.

Hi Voeltz - we have a free version which is large enough for most forums! The $24 / month one is for larger forums that need up to 75 concurrent users (that equates roughly to 100,000 visits per month on the average forum). So keep in mind it might be half your phone bill, but split 100,000 ways it's not so bad : )

Awesome mod! Thank you.

Installed and testing now.....

If the price can be made more affordable, it would be great and you will win the game of being the best chat.

When viewing on iPhone, the chat bar is not correctly placed at the footer but somewhere floating at the middle of the page.

However, when using iPhone to view the Envolve's website, the demo chat bar is correctly located at the footer. So, I don't think this problem is due to iPhone. I suspect this could be due to integration problem with vbulletin.

Any plan to release an updated version for fixing this problem?

Thank you.

Can you disable this for certain usergroups? This way, you can control how many people access it.
