I wound up just creating a block and throwing the live chat code into it. I can then control on which pages it displays just like any other block. Probably not the same functionality as in the module and it required a little php but was simple. Still, I think that people will be using 6.x for awhile since there are still some major modules that haven't been ported to 7.x.

Hi ledom ,

I have added scripts and css to the variables as Drupal 6 will not support including external script via drupal_add_js.

I have added latest module here http://mohitsharma.net/content/banckle-live-chat using drupal_set_html_head Hope this will help.

Also scripts and css will be loaded on the pages having visibility settings

Thanks let me know if still have any issue

Thanks

Hi Mohit,

I see you have posted a Drupal 6 version of this module on your personal website to download. Will this be added to the module page soon as a stable release that is supported by Banckle?

Edit: Just noticed that you aren't the developer of this module. Do you work for them or did you make this custom script for your own purposes?

Thanks.

Hi ejohnson,

I'm not the developer of this module and didn't work for them. I have backported it for one of my project requirement. Posted here so that it helps the people who need it in drupal 6

Thanks

@saqib.masood - any plans to use Mohit's backport and release it? Would love to have this in place!

When I try to activate it and input the department name, it says

The department was not created, please try again.

Nothing there in watchdog as well.
