Support: Dropping users directly in rooms in AVChat 3
Prerequisites:
- working AVChat 3 installation
- acess to the web server where the client side files are installed
Intro
By default, when a user joins AVChat 3 he is presented with a list of existing rooms. He can choose one and join it! You can however skip that and drop users directly into the room of your choice.
How to do it
You need to edit avc_settings.xxx and change the value of the dropInRoom variable with the id of the room you want users to be dropped in.
Every room in AVChat 3 has a unique id. When you log in the AVChat 3 Admin Interface using admin.swf the leftmost colum of the rooms list shows the id of each room.
