After over 18 months of development, the Chat Messaging system for Vicidial was added to svn/trunk on December 13th, 2015(svn revision 2428). Our Chat messaging allows for customers to chat with agents from websites, as well as allowing managers to chat with agents and agents to chat with other agents all within their existing agent screen.

There is a new folder in the web directory called "chat_customer". You will find a file in this folder called "customer_chat_code.php" that you can use to write your own web page for a customer to chat from, or you can just use that page as your Chat URL. The Chat URL is a field in the System Settings that you need to populate in order for the customer chat to work. To use the default for this, just add "chat_customer/customer_chat_code.php" to your current Vicidial webserver URL. For example, if your current webserver url is "http://192.168.1.2/" then you can use this as your Chat URL: "http://192.168.1.2/chat_customer/customer_chat_code.php"

|

available_agents - only allow chats to start if there are LOGGED_IN agents or WAITING_ONLY agents available
