Adding a chatroom

There are three basic options when adding a chatroom:

Option One

You can add a Meebo Chatroom by using the Meebo widget on the right-hand sidebar.  This is how:

1. Click on the "Advanced" menu, drag and drop the Meebo Chat Room widget onto your page.
2. Enter your Chat Room Name and add any other optional features (e.g. size, color).
3. Click on "OK" to add the chatroom to your page.
4. You can edit any settings by clicking on 'Edit' on the top left of the green widget toolbar.
5. Please note: the connection on the Meebo chatroom does not work in certain areas where ISP caching is used. Unfortunately this is something out of our control.

Option Two

You can add a chatroom widgets by using the Widgetbox Gallery, this is how:

1. Drag and drop a Widgetbox Gallery widget onto your page.
2. A dialog box will open, click on the "chat" category.
3. Choose the chatroom that you would like to use on your site.
4. Customize the settings (remember to register on the related site eg. www.meebo.com, as you will need to add your identification details).
5. Click on the green "Get Widget" button and it will be saved and added to your page.
