My apologies for a very basic question, but I'm converting from SMF to MyBB and am feeling *very* lost.

I've installed Ajax Chat, which works, the SMF integration inserts the "Chat" on the menu for me. Not so in MyBB, would someone mind pointing me in the right direction to insert the Caption in the menu and the link to chat.

I may have a few other question, but let me get this out of the way so I can see how MyBB does things and they may all be come academic. Appreciate *any* suggestions.

Add this somewhere in your header template with the other header links:

<li><a href="http://example.com/ajaxchat"><img src="http://example.com/exampleicon.gif" alt="" title="" />Chat Room</a></li>

This doesn't load any who is online lists or anything of that sort. I had partially begun developing a plugin to better integrate ajax chat with MyBB, but lately I've been pretty swamped with projects and haven't gotten around to finishing it. Anyway, this should at least get the link in your header.
That'll work, I hope, thanks. //al

Admitted it took me a few tries (spelling never was a strong suit) but it does work, thanks!
That also give me a little insight into how MyBB handles things! Much appreciated!!//al

Haha no problem. I've got quite some experience working with Ajax Chat, so if you run into any additional issues, let me know. Toungue
