*** Requirements ***
*********************
It is recommend that you use an FTP client for uploading and changing
permissions on files and directories. For assistance in obtaining and
using an FTP client please visit http://help.x7chat.com.
X7 Chat requires that you have a properly configured HTTP server which
supports PHP Version 4.2.2* or higher. X7 Chat also requires some type
of database server. X7 Chat provides built in support for the following
database servers:
- MySql 3.23.54* or higher;
Additional modules may be available at http://x7chat.com that will allow
you to use different database servers. Instructions for installing
these should come with them.
If you are unable to find a module for your database, you may also
program your own database module for X7 Chat to use. Intermediate to
advanced knowledge of PHP is required to do this. Support is not
provided, but documentation is available at http://help.x7chat.com under
the developer section.
* X7 Chat may function properly with some lower versions but Tech
Support will not be provided to people who do not meet these system
requirements.
*********************
*** Pre-Install ****
*********************
X7 Chat will automatically detect Joomla and configure itself to use the same
database as Joomla. If you are an experienced user you may configure X7 Chat to
use a different database during installation. Creating a database beforehand
is not necessary.
*********************
*** Installation ***
*********************
Follow these steps to install X7 Chat:
Step 1) Upload all of the files and directories included with this
download to your webserver. You should put them in a new directory
on your server. This new directory *MUST* be directly inside the Joomla
directory. After uploading you need to be able to access the chat room by
going to http://yoursite.com/Joomladirectory/x7chatdirectory/install.php.
Everything should be uploaded in BINARY mode**.
WARNING: X7 Chat should NOT be placed into the Joomla modules directory,
placing X7 Chat in the modules directory will cause integration to fail.
Step 2) CHMOD 777* the following files and directorys:
- /logs/
- /mods/
- /uploads/
- /config.php
Step 3) Visit http://yourwebsite.com/Joomladirectory/x7chatdirectory/install.php.
Of course you must replace "yourwebsite.com" with the actual address of
your site, "/Joomladirectory" with the actual path to your board. And
"x7chatdirectory" with the actual path to the X7 Chat directory.
The install.php file will guide you through the rest of the installation
process. While running the installation file it will automatically configure
itself to integrate with Joomla, leave the default settings on step 1 in order
for this integration to work properly.
Step 4) Follow these directions to add a link to the chat room on your Joomla.
1) Enter your Joomla admin panel and click the Menu Manager button.
2) Press the button under the "Menu Items" column next to mainmenu (or
whatever menu you want Chat to appear under)
3) Press the "New" button.
4) Choose "Link - URL" under the Links section and press "Next"
5) Enter "Chat" or another appropriate name into the Name box,
in the Link box put "./x7chat", but replace "x7chat" with the name
of the directory that you put X7 Chat in. Choose anything you want
for the remaining options and press Save.
Assistance) If you need assistance with these instructions please
visit http://help.x7chat.com.
* If using a Windows server then the file needs to be made
writeable by everyone. After installation set the file so it is
no longer writeable to everyone.
** This is usually the default setting for FTP programs. If you don't
know how to change it then chances are its already on BINARY. Images and
sound files that are included with X7 Chat will not work unless they
are uploaded in BINARY mode.
*********************
*** Post-Install ***
*********************
After installation you MUST deleted the install.php file. If you do not
anybody can get administrator access.
For added security you may change the permissions on config.php to their
former values.

Pues mira, yo trabajo con Joomla tambien y la verdad es que te recomendaria que lo tubieras independiente por ejemplo tú página web, sea www.patito.com y en un sub-dominio tubieras el chat; así le das la posibilidad a tu cliente de página web, que tenga abierta la página solo para administradores, en www.chat.patito.com , y para activar el chat, únicamente en el boton que te genere, lo copias y lo pegas en un modulo en tu página web en joomla y listo! totalmente independiente ;D
