johnodon Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 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 Quote Link to comment
WeeboTech Posted November 6, 2014 Share Posted November 6, 2014 A plugin and webGui page that can present, and forward, to the freenode webchat should suffice. http://webchat.freenode.net?channels=%23unraid&uio=d4 Quote Link to comment
