Testing a simple chat room

(link removed)

 

It's not very pretty yet but you should be able to have private chats. I have not read all the instructions yet. I set it for logged in users only.

Oh lovely, a chat room!  I'm very pleased Danny, have belonged to other forums where there was a chat room and it's brilliant to be able to talk in real time to friends.  Thank you.

I've had a look, but think I might wait until it's all set up and ready to go whistle

Good luck!

I think when you type something in when someone else is in the chat room they see it and can reply straight away. A bit like being glued to the forum!

That's it exactly, it's just like us all being in a (virtual) room together chatting away.

I took it down for the time being. At least we know it works after a fashion but I would need to present it a little better than that attempt! doh

Never used the FB chat thingy, Janet, but I guess all chat capabilities are similar.

This one seems very basic though but it's free software and hosted on our server.

I will play with it once we have ironed out the final glitches in our new layout.

I didn't know there was a chat thing of FB!  There is a lot I don't know about FB, in reality.

I'll try that again!
