The most popular means of exchanging information on sites is chat. It can be used to communicate in real time. This is the main advantage of chat. Also worth noting is its multi-user interface. Undoubtedly, it is better when several people communicate at once. This allows the problem to be solved quickly and for everyone. Therefore, a site builder must be able to put a chat on his resource.
Instructions
Step 1
There are three ways to embed a chat on your website. The first method is suitable for those site builders whose resource is on the engine. Almost every engine has its own modules and plugins that allow you to expand the portal service. For example, the Joomla engine has a special interface in the admin panel for loading plugins and modules. Download the chat module on the official website of the extensions. It is free.
Step 2
Go to the admin panel, find the menu "Modules and extensions manager". Browse the path to the chat archive and click Unpack and Install. The installation will take place in automatic mode.
Step 3
Download the chat application you like. Unpack it on your computer. Now proceed to the second method of chat installation. It is universal for engines and handwritten sites (with php support). Open your site after copying the chat folder to the resource root. Copy the location of the chat installation php file to the address bar of your browser. The chat setup window will open. Now create a MySQL database for the chat. Then complete the installation by following the instructions.
Step 4
To install a chat in the third way, you need a site script. You can write it yourself, download it from the Internet or make it to order. After that, open the main page of your site with the editor. Copy the contents of the script to a convenient location. The chat will work. Consider the platform of the script. If the chat is not a Java script, but php, then create a MySQL database to store the chat data.
