Can't figure out how to actually USE a non-block module (Mibbit IRC)

Nositi - June 30, 2008 - 07:41

Maybe I just don't know where to look, but I can't find any support on how to actually embed this in a page. Putting it into the right folder, enabling it and giving access to both anonymous and authenticated users is a 5 minute job, and these are the only things detailed in the help file. I can't find any other support for this particular module, and any general help on setting up + using premade modules seems to be exclusive to block modules, which Mibbit IRC does not appear to be.

So how do I go about actually embedding this widget in a page? I'm absolutely lost. I would think that it would be the same as a lot of other modules, but this is my first attempt and I'm on a fresh install.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I've been trying random things and looking for resources that might help for quite a while. Thanks.

I think its settings are at

I think its settings are at admin/settings/mibbitirc and its page is at irc.

Thanks, appreciate it! Yeah

Thanks, appreciate it! Yeah the config page is really easy to find but I had no idea that it was just /irc for the widget.

Here is a handy cheat: If you peep in the mibbit_irc.module file and look for a mibbit_irc_menu() function you will see all the paths which it defines and a description of what they are for. That works for all modules.
