A friend and I started a web site and the other admin addied a couple of chat rooms. We want to delete them out and can't figure where to go. If someone can walk us through it. I would be most thankful.
Thanks From this Broken down old war horse.

Was it a SMF mod that you added?

Did you try going to
Admin/Packages/Remove Package?

Alternately you can remove the files with the mod coding in them.

You know. Im not sure what it was. I would imagine so. I didn't add it. Even though i am an admin. I don't have the server intel or can't find it anywhere. I did find the chat section. Just didn't say anything about deleteing it. We have two chat icons in the message logout bar. And i can't seem to access it. I will admit i new to this fromat and still trying to figure out SMF. It is a good program to and i want to learn more. Just want to take it step by step.

It should not require coding to delete it than.

Go to Admin/Packages

Find the one that says something like

irc chat
or chatroom


Than go to uninstall.. Confirm .. Delete

I did as you said. And it says. No packages Yet.   Still when you go to the top bar on the logout, members, profile. There is two icons that say chat. And we want them gone.  Any other places we might look?

Na maybe another member or forum admin installed it already do you have a forum link so I can see what files it should be affecting?

Can you attach your index.template.php file here?

/Themes/default/index.template.php

No that would be in your FTP client. You can usually extract the file to your desktop.

I know i really thank you for this. Maybe it has to come from the package that he unzipped. There might be a link to uninstall that way.

No thats irrelevant if its already installed on your forum. It would be installed under admin/packages.

If he knew what he was doing tell him to attach the index.template.php here. Are you able to access FTP?

Im not sure which one he is using.  I do know he deleted the arcade and it dissappeared off the task bar.
Thanks From this Broken down old war horse.

This is what the task bar looks like
     

    Home    Help  Search  Admin  Profile  My Messages  Chat  Calendar  Members  Chat  Logout   

South Park Junkies

And when i go into the Admin area this is what we have there.

The only place that shows anything to do with chat is



Integrated Chat Settings
Choose the language of your board   
Type in the name of your chat room   
Type in 3 or 4 letters to append to every user name. This prevents duplicate names from the server, ex _app   
Type in the Width of the chat applet (default 700)   
Type in the Height of the chat applet (default 500)   
If you want to put a password on your room put it here, otherwise use NULL   
How often do you want the chat stats updated, in seconds   
If you do not want a list of other chat rooms to appear set to false, otherwise true   
Leave true to help support the chat server and show ads. Otherwise set to false   
List the number of users and their names in chat on the board index   
Show the number of users logged in and who they are at the top of the site   

I hope this is enough intel so you can help me.

I don't think he was using a FTP.
Thanks From this Broken down old war horse.

Unless if he uninstalled it and got an error but thats found in your index.template.php. I don't find it very hard to go into your ftp client and post it. Does not require much there. You should always know your FTP information at all times. Theres not much more I can do.
