Parameter

Änderungen auf Parameter anwenden ist einfach und erlaubt dir anzupassen, wie dein Chat funktioniert. Um sie zu ändern, öffne zuerst die index.php im Hauptverzeichnis deines Php Free Chat-Ordners. Halte Ausschau nach einigen Zeilen, die mit $params; anfangen, das ist nämlich die Parameterliste. Die Parameterliste ist in das $params Array gespeichert und wird dann durchgegangen und in die Klasse geschrieben. Um einen neuen Parameter hinzuzufügen, folge einfach derselben Syntax wie bei den anderen Parametern:

$params['parameter_name'] = [Parameterwert, entweder als String oder als Array, hängt vom Parameter ab];

Note for the Php Free Chat team:This part is not translateable

• serverid

  This is the only mandatory parameter used to identify the chat server. You can compare it to the server ip/host like on an IRC server. If you don't know what to write, just try : $params["serverid"] = md5(__FILE__);

• language

  Used to translate the chat text and messages. Accepted values are the i18n/ sub directories names. (By default, this is the local server language.)

• output_encoding

  Set a sepcific encoding for chat labels. This is really useful when the Web page embedding the chat is not UTF-8 encoded. This parameter should be the same as the chat web page. Could be ISO-8859-1 or anything else but it must be supported by iconv php module. (Default value: UTF-8)

• nick

  If you have already identified the user (forum, portal...) you can force the user's nickname with this parameter. Defining a nick will skip the "Please enter your nickname" popup.

  Warning : Nicknames must be encoded in UTF-8. For example, if you get nicks from a databases where they are ISO-8859-1 encoded, you must convert it: $params["nick"] = iconv("ISO-8859-1", "UTF-8", $bdd_nickname); (Of course, change the $bdd_nickname parameter for your needs.)

  (Default value: "" - means users must choose a nickname when s/he connects.)

• max_nick_len

  This is the maximum nickname length, a longer nickname is forbidden. (Default value: 15)

• frozen_nick

  Setting this to true will forbid the user to change his/her nickname later. (Default value: false)

• nickmeta

  Contains some extra data (metadata) about the user that can be used to customize the display. For example: the user's gender, age, real name, etc. can be setup in order to display it in the user's info box. A example for gender is : $params["nickmeta"] = array('gender'=>'f'); (Default value: empty array)

• nickmeta_private

  Can be used to set user metadata that is only visible to admins. (Default value: array('ip') - means that the user's IP address is shown to admins only)

• nickmeta_key_to_hide

  Can be used to hide keys in the final displayed whoisbox. (Default value: array() - means that nothing is hidden)

• isadmin

  Set this parameter to true if you want to give admin rights to the connected user. Attention : if you don't use any external registration system, all your users will be admins. You have to test current user rights before setting this parameter to true. (Default value: false)

• admins

  This parameter contains a list of key/value that identify admin access. The keys are the nicknames and the values are the corresponding passwords. Note: The "isadmin" parameter does not depend on this variable. (Default value: nick 'admin' with no password is available. Don't forget to change it.)

• firstisadmin

  When this parameter is true, it gives admin rights to the first connected user on the server. (Default value: false)

• title

  Used to change the chat title that is visible just above the messages list. (Default value: "My Chat")

• channels

  Used to create default rooms (auto-joined at startup). It contains an array of rooms names. (Default value: one room is created named "My room")

  This parameter can be used to restrict channels to users. If the array is empty, it allows users to create their own channels. (Default value: empty array)

• max_channels

  The maximum number of allowed channels for each user. (Default value: 10)

• privmsg

  This array contains the nicknames list you want to initiate a private message at chat loading. Of course, the listed nicknames should be online or it will just be ignored. (Default value: empty array)

• max_privmsg

  This is the maximum number of private message allowed at the same time for one user. (Default value: 5)

• refresh_delay

  This is the time to wait between two refreshes. A refresh is an HTTP request which asks the server if there are new messages to display. If there are no new messages, then an empty HTTP response is returned. This parameter will be dynamically changed depending on the chat activity, see refresh_delay_steps parameter for more information. (Default value: 2000 it means 2000 ms or 2 seconds)

• refresh_delay_steps

  This parameter is used to control the refresh_delay value dynamically. More the chat is active, more the refresh_delay is low, that means more the chat is responsive. The first parameter is a refresh delay value, the second is a time inactivity boundary etc ... (Default value: array(2000,20000,3000,60000 ... that means: start with 2s delay after 20s of inactivity, 3s delay after 60s of inactivity ...)

• timeout

  This is the time of inactivity to wait before considering a user is disconnected (in milliseconds). A user is inactive only if s/he closed his/her chat window. A user with an open chat window is not inactive because s/he sends each refresh_delay an HTTP request. (Default value: 35000 it means 35000 ms or 35 seconds)

• islocked
  When this parameter is true, all the chatters will be redirected to the url indicated by the lockurl parameter. (Default value: false)

  This url is used when islocked parameter is true. The users will be redirected (http redirect) to this url. (Default value: http://www.phpfreechat.net)
• skip_proxies

  Contains the list of proxies to ingore. For example: append 'censor' to the list to disable words censoring. The list of system proxies can be found in src/proxies/.

• pre_proxies

  This array ocntains the proxies that will be handled just before system proxies. You can use this array to execute your own proxy. (Default value: empty array)

• proxies_cfg

• cmd_path

  This parameter indicates your own commands directory location. The chat uses commands to communicate between client and server. As an example, when a message is sent, the /send your message command is used, when a nickname is changed, the /nick newnickname command is used. To create a new command, you have to write it and indicate in this parameter where it is located. (Default value: empty string - means no custom command path is used)

This parameter isn't true by default because on IE and Konqueror/Safari, reloading the window (F5) will generate the same event as closing the window which can be annoying. (Default value: false)

• focus_on_connect

  Setting this to true will give the focus to the input text box when connecting to the chat. It can be useful not to touch the focus when integrating the chat into an existing website because when the focus is changed, the viewport follows the focus location. (Default value: true)

• dyn_params

  Most of the chat parameters are stored in a internal cache for performances issues. It means that for all the clients the chat will have the same parameters. However sometime you need to customize some parameters for each clients. For example: the 'language' parameter could depends on the chatter profil so it could interesting to ignore the cache for this parameter. The 'dyn_params' contains the parameters that need to be dynamic (not stored in the cache). (Default value: array())

Phpfreechat unterstützt Befehlsproxies. Diese Proxies können mit Plugins verglichen werden. Einige Proxies werden mit dem phpfreechat Quellcode bereitgestellt und können konfiguriert werden. Sehe dir die Proxydokumentation an, um die verfügbaren Parameter zu erfahren.
