November 6, 201411 yr Since IRC has become wildly popular lately with people squatting in the channel waiting for release announcements, maybe it is time to incorporate a web-based IRC client into the unRAID GUI? It could be made its own tab or part of a larger tab called "Support" or "Help". If the latter, other info could also be contained within (i.e. wiki, support docs, etc). I see this as a quick and clean way for users who are not familiar with IRC to be able to easily join #unraid. The only real setting required is to supply a nickname. Of course other things could be incorporated: SSL, etc. I guess it would just be a matter of whether this could be baked into the GUI or better handled via a plugin. John
November 6, 201411 yr A plugin and webGui page that can present, and forward, to the freenode webchat should suffice. http://webchat.freenode.net?channels=%23unraid&uio=d4
