Chat Room

Darren Oh - June 25, 2006 - 10:49

This module enables chat rooms to be set up on Drupal sites. No additional software is required. Chat Room uses AJAX to update chats without page reloads. Chat rooms are nodes that provide access to chats and chat archives. This module does not support pop-up windows or invitations.

Credits

The original code for this project was contributed by Justin Randell, who maintained the project from June 24 to September 16, 2006.

David Notik provided the demo site from October 2006 to November 19, 2007.

The Drupal 5 release was sponsored by Expat9.

Known issues

There is a bug in Drupal versions 4.7.6 and below and 5.1 and below which prevents chats from working properly.
Chat Room requires MySQL 4.1 or higher.
The Drupal 4.7 branch of Chat Room will not work if it is installed outside the Drupal directory and accessed by a symlink.

Volunteers needed

I am looking for volunteers to help with future development and to maintain older versions. Visit the Chat development page for more information. Or, if you prefer, you can to chat development.
