Component body

The module is based on the free gabbly.com chat widget technology. It allows you to embed a chat system in your site with minimal work.

The chat window uses AJAX to avoid page refreshes.

Standard Gabbly chat widget features include:

  • Mute individual users from conversation
  • Sounds on/off
  • Show/hide user list
  • It doesn't require Flash, Java or an IRC server - just JavaScript.

In addition to the standard Gabbly features i've added:

  • Ability to provide your site users with multiple chat rooms.
  • Access control for chat usage
  • Make chat rooms semi-private so people cannot just guess the name and join from outside of your site.
  • If you allow anonymous users to chat, they can configure their nick name. Logged in users must use their Drupal username.
