phpBB Integration Introduction
Basically the module can integrate the chat and the phpBB seamlessly.

So what the module can add to phpBB? It adds a chat button which links to a fabulous chat room, with multiple skins and multilingual support, written in flash or HTML/Ajax, and a visual setting panel, etc.
1. Chat Button
Firstly a chat button will be added to the top menu of the phpBB as the chat room entrance.

2. Auto-login
After installing the module, the phpBB user database will be automatically immigrated to the chat room and auto-login will be enabled.
Therefore the phpBB users may click the "Chat"button or directly choose a chat room to enter, without being asked to login again.
3. Custom Settings in phpBB ACP
Enter phpBB ACP and you will find "123FLASHCHAT" tab, click it to enter the setting panel of the module:

[ externes Bild ]Server Modes of 123 Flash Chat
1) Free Trial Edition of 123 Flash Chat

Advantages: It's free but has full functions, even the optional modules including audio and video chat.

Limitation: Only 10 concurrent users may use the room and you need to host it by yourself, which means a dedicated server with SSH access is required.
2) Free Hosting of 123 Flash Chat

Advantages: It's hosted by TOPCMM 123 Flash Chat team, free of charge, no limit to the concurrent user number and provides the basic chat functions.

Limitation: Some management functions are missing.
3) Commercial Server Software or Hosting Service

Advantages: No advertisements, full support service, multiple client choices, etc.

The remarkable change of the new module is that a free hosted chat will be offered to a phpBB, and the back end admin console has been enhanced.
