Chat


If you installed this mod and/or you want get support, please "Mark as Installed".




Not much to explain, everybody knows what is chat.
I have the honor to present the first ajax chat that built for vB5

How to install:

1. Download the attachment
2. Upload the content of 'upload_to_root' directory to your root
3. Make sure that Plugin/Hook System is enabled, it is disabled by default.
4. Reload your site (twice) - this mod uses the Auto-Install feature.

Auto-Install it's a feature that allows vB5 install addons automatically after all files uploaded.
There is no need to upload xml manually anymore.
