Version 6.x-1.6 <-Last update: 20 Mar 2015

Some obscure bugs fixed, code comments clarified, and error checks added.

Version 6.x-1.5

When the user logs out of Drupal, s/he also is logged out of phpFreeChat (a phpFreeChat /quit command is issued programmatically when the Drupal logout event occurs).

Version 6.x-1.4

Packaging errors - wrong files in 6.x-1.2 and 6.x-1.3 releases.

Version 6.x-1.2

Removed t() functions from phpfreechat.install to comply with later versions of Drupal 6.x (tested on Drupal 6.34).

Minor change in phpfreechat.inc and parameters.txt for compatibility with phpFreeChat 1.7 (prior version had been tested with phpFreeChat 1.2).

Updated the INSTALL.txt instructions to clarify and update some details.

Reformatted all files to comply with Drupal formatting standards.

Chatbox options were not displaying on the "Add content" form when they should have been. Now they are.

The block options were not previously working. Now they are. You can configure blocks showing who is chatting across all rooms, or in up to two specific rooms (configurable).

Version 6.x-1.1

Same as 6.x-1.0 - the files were uploaded incorrectly and the system bumped the version number when the package was re-uploaded.

Version 6.x-1.0

The module has been updated to work with Drupal 6.x (tested on Drupal 6.9). There have been no functional changes.
