I've looked all over the dashboard and the admin pages, but I can't seem to find the page that allows me to change the PJIRC settings. There's no settings option under modules. Any ideas?

It is under "Configuration" menu, and reads "PJIRC Configuration".

Anyway, I'll look into make it appear on "Configuration page" and/or have a "Settings" option under Modules.
Thx for making me notice that ;)

Hmm, still not seeing it for some reason. I have tried removing and re-installing the module, so I'm not sure why it's not showing up under configuration. That's where I thought it would be too. It's not under any of the available categories, and I don't know enough about drupal or php to go fishing through the files to find it and enable it. I did manage to find the file with the settings for customizing which network it connects to and whatnot, but beyond that I'm a little lost.

It's working for now, and I can manage it myself. I was hoping to give my admins access to the settings, in case they need to change something. Thanks for looking into it, it's much appreciated. And thanks for this module, it helped a lot!

You should be able to access PJIRC settings by going to this location inside your site: /admin/config/pjirc if the module is installed and enabled. It informs you about this location anytime you enable the module in /admin/modules. Are you using user #1 to installa and enabling the module? Module permissions only allow access to PJIRC administration to privileged users. Please check user permissions for your role and user if you are not using user #1 and configure them accordingly.

I'm very surprised that you could manage to make the module work by editing the configuration file of PJIRC because the module does not use that file at all. It is only included as part of the source code examples of PJIRC itself for use on standalone installations and not by Drupal PJIRC module. That file could be deleted an the module will still work. All configuration of PJIRC module is stored and retrieved from the database.

What URL are you using to access PJIRC chat page? It should be like www.example.com/pjirc or an alias pointing to that.

Are you using Drupal 7.x or 6.x? Did you downloaded the module from drupal.org? Do you get any errors right after enabling the module? Please check Drupal's Watchdog and look for related errors.
Are you uploading the module under /sites/all/modules or /sites/default/modules?

After some testing I realized that is very difficult to find Pjirc Configuration page if Overlay and Toolbar are enabled. When overlay is disabled or you close it, it is very easy to see the Pjirc Configuration menu option under Administration / Configuration menu.
To mitigate this when using overlay I added an option to show a link to Pjirc Configuration in the modules table.

You can check this out in the -dev release of the module.

still no luck when I turn off Overlay and Toolbar. I will definitely try the -dev release. Thanks for looking into that further!

The good news is that I've been able to access the settings via the direct link. Still no luck with finding it under Configuration. I will definitely try the -dev release now!

I will collect the answers to those questions and will post them here when I get a chance.

Don't look the configuration page. Please look the 'Configuration' Menu.
