[edit] What can this extension do?

Adds a hook function that allows you to use the syntax <lace></lace> to embed the lace chat client in a wiki article. You can add any other text etc that you like into the article with the chat client.

There is a demo here http://www.wikichat.org/LaceDemo

[edit] Installation

1. Download the lace chat client from here http://socket7.net/lace/files/lace-0.1.6b1.zip

2. Unzip it and copy the www directory in the archive, into your wiki root directory. Rename it something like lace. You should end up with a directory something like mine - http://www.wikichat.org/wiki/lace

Note: It has to be in the root directory to work for some reason that I'm trying to track down.

3. Copy http://www.wikichat.org/WikiLace.php and put it in a file called "WikiLace.php" in your extensions directory. /!\ This URL doesn't exist anymore.

4. Change the following line in WikiLace.php

$wgLaceLocation = "http://www.wikichat.org/wiki/lace";

to point to the directory where you have installed lace.

5. Add the following line to the bottom of your LocalSettings.php

include ( "$IP/extensions/WikiLace.php" );

6. chmod 0777 or whatever works best for you: /data /data/activity.dat /data/lace.dat /data/log.dat /data/logs

7. Open config.php and set at a minimum LACE_URL_ABS and LACE_URL_REL. You may also wish to change: LACE_INTERVAL, LACE_TIMEOUT and LACE_ACTIVITY_IDLE.

8. Edit an article and add <lace></lace> somewhere. The chat client is now embedded.

See the README.TXT in the lace directory for more info .
