Ajax Chat Setup

[coco3chat71]

Hi there,

I'm wanting to install a chat script to my site called Ajax Chat. https://blueimp.net/ajax/

Is this allowed to be installed on our sites?

Some posts say that no chat/shout boxes are allowed as stated in the terms of service, but I read them and I don't see it listed: http://x10hosting.com/terms

Chat scripts are now allowed and run reasonably well, like you I asked first because I was not sure
and somebody from admin should be able to confirm this for you later today.

Had a copy of the 'X7 chat' script running on STOLI a few months back, worked pretty well though a little slow.

However there is the unseen limit of server resource useage
so how many people a chat room will support before the
account gets a temporary suspension is very uncertain.

Ajax chat is a very good chat engine im planning to set it up myself but i recommend u make a few changes in config.php located in lib folder

ajax chat saves all chat in the database by default and by the default he never prune it either so after awile and a few users your database will grow for noting^^

line 181 to 184 u will find

// Defines if old messages are purged from the database:
$config['logsPurgeLogs'] = false;
// Max time difference in days for old messages before they are purged from the database:
$config['logsPurgeTimeDiff'] = 365;

change false to true and 365 to something more within reason like 7 days or 14
