Sounds interesting. I am pretty new to programming so I am interesting in implementing such feature in my website http://www.gluecksspielschule.de/. I would appreciate if you could have a look at it and tell me how I can implement this feature. This is my website. I would love to build a forum for my website so I still have to figure out how this all works. Would appreciate your feedback. And please be honest. Thanks already in advance!!

So, phpBB mChat have to be installed, is required (RMcGirr83 version).
If you really need these options (offered by my addon) just install it in such a way as typically installed other mods (by AutoMod or manually - read install_mod.xml file in your borwser).
