Configuration path: <PHP-Fusion installed directory>/infusions/chat_panel/flashchatconf /config_free.php Configure the following parameters: $room_name = "YourRoomName"; (If you leave $room_name as blank, the default $room_name's value will be your domain's name.) Thirdly, install the module in PHP-Fusion admin panel. 1. Login: PHP-Fusion Admin Panel -> Find: System Admin -> Find: Panels -> Click: add new panel.  2. Configure parameters as following.  3. Click "Enable" in panel options. 
Fourthly, integrate your chat with PHP-Fusion user database, after doing that, users can single sign-on your PHP-Fusion chat, it means they won't have to enter their accounts again. If you choose running mode (1) or mode (2), you need to set Auth-URL by following the instructions below. 1. Log in the Chat Admin Panel. 2. Server Settings -> Integration ->DataBase -> SELECT: URL -> edit.  3. Change URL to http://<PHP-Fusion installed directory>/login_chat.php?username=%username%&password=%password%  4. Press OK to save your setting. 5. Restart chat server at Server Management -> Restart. The following image describes how auth-URL integration works.  The Auth-URL application will perform as the communicating medium of the chat server and the database, i.e.: in fact, when a user logs on a chat server, the server won't connect to the user database directly, instead, it will send the username and password to the Auth- URL. Then the Auth- URL requests the database to authenticate the user. Finally, the Auth- URL will return the feedback to the chat server in a predefined way, whether approved or declined. Integration done, enjoy your chat.
