Re: [Tikiwiki-devel] Clarification on feature request for Shoutbox

[Michael P. <mlp...@gm...>]

Hi Dave,



I think it could be simpler, just to allow multiple shoutbox channels
- maybe this can be done already.

We can control module access by group, and put shoutboxes in modules.
That shjould be secure unless there is a way access shoutbox by url
directly.

that would be a cool tweak to have.

PS. I've tested the IM feature in tikiwki, and in my tests it was too
slow to be useful. Expanded shoutboxes could replace entire IM
feature.
