Chat Modifications - [CTech] Chat: IRC (Webchat)

About the Add-on
This add-on utilizes qwebirc to provide a web irc interface to your forums. I have created this for my site and releasing here for everyone (free to use). You are not allowed to remove the copyright text.

Features

• Easy to configurable admincp options
  • guest name/prefix
  • channels to join
  • server to use
• Automatic tab in navbar
• stylevars support

Features to Come

• some navbar related options (dropdown menu)
• chat window as a popup window (in menu)
• irc:// link in menu
• ability to work even if your site is closed (and may be during database problems too)
• facebook styled chat (might release it as a separate add-on though)

Supported vB Version
check above. It may or may not work on previous versions. I don't really care.

How to Install
Estimate Install Time: less than 2 minutes.

1. Extract the zip file in your computer
2. Rename the admincp folder to match your server admincp folder if you have changed it
3. Upload all the files in /upload to your forum directory
4. import the product XML using add product in admincp
5. Configure the product [ admincp > Crimson Tech Products > Chat: IRC ... ]
6. Enjoy!

Support
I will try to support this add-on and add-on users for as long as I can. But no support unless you click INSTALL!
Also, don't forget to rate the add-on.

Please PM as well if you respond...thanks in advance.

Make sure you are on latest vBulletin (at least 4.1.0) and try to disable all other mods. Then check again.

admin in channel is not determined by this mod. It is determined by the irc server you are using. If someone has taken over your channel, you need to contact the irc server's support channel; usually /j help

If you already have qwebirc hosted, just use that url in the options and it will work just fine.
