Is there a way to add phpfree to an existing website?

[midorialexandros]

Alright I know the short answer is YES.

I can do it through my cpanel.

But when I do this, it creates a whole new directory... this is not what I want. I want to take one of my preformatted pages ( I am currently using cbox ) and I want to replace the area cbox is taking up with phpfree. While it is like my inexperience with php in general, I have spent four days trying to make this happen and just cannot figure it out. I love this program and its features and would really love to add it to my website, but I don't want to loose the headers, footers, and other content I have already created when the user navigates to the page.

Anyone have experience with this? Advice? How to?

Have you read through the FAQ stuff? I know this is covered somewhere in there.

[midorialexandros]

I scoured the internet and I am not finding very good resources.

It seems like I will need to manually install the chat, does anyone have a good walk through? Examples? Cheatsheets? The little I did find on the FAQ wasn't incredibly helpful to my situation.

Shoot, that's my fault. I could have sworn we had this in there really clearly, but we definitely do not.

The chat is structured in two parts: the header includes, and the chat itself.

The basic form of the header includes look something like this:

Code: Select all

require_once "src/phpfreechat.class.php"; // adjust to your own path
  $params["serverid"] = md5(__FILE__); // used to identify the chat
  $chat = new phpFreeChat($params);

You'll note that the parameters will all be included there, after the 'require_once' but before the '$chat =' lines.
This whole section must come before any html output, and must be surrounded by php tags (or in a section of php)

The second part, the chat itself, is really just this one line:

Code: Select all

 <?php $chat->printChat(); ?>

It is simply placed in your HTML, wherever you want the chat to actually print.

What to do, when I have a page in PHP?
And side from chatem is in such a building site:

Code: Select all

if($page=="chat"){
echo("<div id=box_right style=height:580px><div class=belka_right><div class=napis_belka2>CHAT</div></div><div class=bg_right>");
echo("");
echo("</div></div>"); < --- How here to put this code? - PrintChat () <php $ chat->;>
}

How to put cottages in then?
