Installing


Point your browser to http://path_to_ipChat/install.php , where path_to_ipChat is the url to ipChat folder.



If your site url is http://mysite.com/ and you were extracted the files to your server root. Then the url will be http://ift.tt/1ixTOGi.

If the file config.php exists in your server already, you will an error message saying “Configuration file found, Please delete conf.php and restart the installation”. At this point you cannot continue the installation.

To overcome this situation goto ipChat/includes/conn/ folder in your server, then find and delete “conf.php” file.

<script type="text/javascript">
var chat = new ipChat(); // Initialize the Impact Plus class
$(function() { // jQuery document ready event
chat.start(); // Call the method "start"
});
</script>

You can also set the options with `set_options` method of `ipChat`, after initializing the `ipChat` object



<script type="text/javascript">
var chat = new ipChat();
// Set a single option
chat.set_options( "useCache", false );

// or an object
chat.set_options({
useCache: false,
canUploadFiles: false
});
$(function() {
chat.start();
});
</script>
