Chat enabled, cant find room anywhere..?

[alistairgd66]

After enabling Chat in ACP, where do we find it or how do we add it to the nav bar?

 

Thanks!

You've enabled it - have you give people (groups) permissions to use it yet?

List everything you've done to enable it so that people know exactly what you have done already.

Yes all groups given permission for it.

How do I get it to appear in the nav bar?

It's as simple as enabling it for all (turning 'application online') or enabling it for some groups (by selecting the specific groups) - and then it appears.

So....what's different for you? Post your URL...make chat visible to guests (and post a screenshot to prove you have done that) and we'll go from there.

If you want it to appear in your menu, you may need to go into your Menu Manager to add a link to the app.

Which you don't have to do by default. If he does want to go down that route then the url is http(s)://www.domain.com/chat

I have a licence for the forums, not the full community deal...? I don't think I have a menu manager, but the chat module shows up in the ACP.

Accessible, so it is just a matter of it not appearing in the menu. As it's supposed to, then it's possible that it could be down to the theme (looks like the default, is it?) or it may have been deleted from the menu manager already (you do have a menu manager - open the ACP and look at 'System -> (Site features) Menu Manager') or maybe the option in the Menu has been modified to only show it to certain groups too.

Thanks for the help Nathan!

I was able to add it to the menu manager - many thanks!
