Hi, not sure if I’m allowed to ask this, but looking for chat add on or software that integrates with EE members info like username ect. I currently use arrowchat, but I’m unable to really customize it because it’s compiled JS and I have no idea how to add/change features for my site’s needs. Looking for something that does like group chat/chat rooms vs. one-on-one chat only.

Thanks.

Comechat works fine with Expression Engine, could be easily integrated to EE thanks a PHP integration script.

Registered Members of your EE website are added to the chat system list. Guest members too. I

“chat/chat rooms vs. one-on-one chat only.” You colud easily to this with CometChat

Thanks. do you know how customizable it is? I want to add a link on the chat list that lets you click on a user’s name and would pull up their member profile, but I can’t do this with Arrowchat. Hoping to find a system that let’s me make little tweaks like that without having to dig into crazy compiled code that’s way over my head.

It’s easily customisable with CSS and Html code. Modifying design, font size etcc

You’re welcome.

Some months ago, you could buy a CometChat llicence for 1 year. It was cheaper.

Try to contact their support team if it’s possible to acquire the 1 year licence version.
