Description
after downloading the module from drupal (and putting it in the modules folder) goto
http://www.phpfreechat.net/download
click on
Download 1.x (stable) version
click on
phpfreechat-1.2-setup.php
this will download another folder called something like 'phpfreechat-1.2'
put this folder inside phpfreechat module
rename phpfreechat-1.2 folder to phpfreechat
download 'the script' (vague, I can't remember where I got the script at this point because all the confusion) and put in the sites/all/phpfreechat/phpfreechat
PM for info

"Download the script?". I too am getting a message in Drupal saying this but cannot fathom what dam script or where it comes from. Please if you or any other reader remembers where the script is please tell me.
Frustrated of Wales!

This worked for me. I had to put the files in the /sites/all/modules folder.
I downloaded from http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpfreechat/files/
I downloaded the files under the branch 1.x (stable) - 1.2 - phpfreechat-1.2.tar.gz and phpfreechat-1.2-setup.php
Renamed everthing to phpfreechat
Then I went to admin/settings/phpfreechat and setup a Default Title and Default Channels.
Created a new content type admin/content/types/add. Out a Title and Name. Under Workflow settings - Show Chat Room, I selected Always and I deslected the option to promote to front page
Then I created new content for my new content type. node/add/chatroom. Gave it a Title, Added it to the Menu I wanted it on and set my URL path.
Now my users can go to the chatroom I just created.
I hope this helps everyone.

After about 7 attempts to get this installed properly... I can't figure out how to change the smileys at the bottom. I have read all the docs on the phpfreechat site but none of the "customizations" work.... does anyone know?
