Issue and questions
For anyone else looking search for DBPASS until you reach a section for database parameters that include DBHOST, DBUSER, DBPASS, and DBNAME. That function for me is on (at this time) line 4909 and it is called "function load_config."
Secondly, I'm not sure if this is an issue with my setup but if I just put the folder in into the url I get the folder contents. That seems like a security risk to me. I actually had to add chat.php to the link to open up the site. I renamed chat.php to index.php and I don't have that issue but will that break anything?
Also how do I add a VIP member group with at least a separate section in online listing and if possible a group chat? Also related on the online listing how do I change staff to mod?
I used your example chatters_list_on_right_example.css and put that into the CSS box on the set up page however it's not doing spacing correctly. I have a user name directly above the group with no gap. How do I change that?
Also is it possible to delete specific messages and not purge all of a member's messages or clean the chat?

This as always been where the settings have been, there nested in that function so the script then call the function at the start as the way PHP works it must load the hole script first before running it.

This isn't a index page there for it wouldn't do what you wanted and was never made to do that, you embed it in to your website how you feel fit so if you really want to make it lets say url.ltd/chat you can use the folder and renaming to index.php like you did or you could use a .htaccess file or alike depending of the web platform your using.

Yes in the main chat option when logged in as a admin you can delete any message you see.
How do I create a special group and have it show up under the logged in members? Also how do I change the logged in members show mods rather than staff.
