If you wish to set up a Web:IRC configuration for Mibbit, please follow the following steps.
- Choose a WebIRC password.
- This password should be between 6-20 alphanumeric characters. Please don't use special characters.
- Configure your servers. How to do so is listed below for each server type.
- IP addresses are in the section above for reference and in each IRCd specific section below.
- Please have your settings saved and rehashed
- Gather the following information so that you may supply it in the following step.
- Network name
- Will be shown in the server tab, so keep it short but meaningful. For irc.example.net could be "Example Net"
- A list of all DNS entries that point to your network.
- e.g., irc.blah.net, blah.com, oldname.com etc.
- In the case that not all servers in your network are set up with WebIRC, a list of the servers with WebIRC enabled.
- Preferred connect server or round robin and the port number (if not 6667)
- e.g., irc.blah.net:1234 (will be used by the main client)
- If you have SSL, we prefer that port (and please tell us that it's SSL).
- Server admin's Email address
- Server admin's nickname on server
- WebIRC password (maximum length 20 characters)
- Public (yes/no)
- Only say yes if both:
- you have more than 100 users. No, services and bots do not count. IRC OPs do not count either.
- you want to see your server listed in the main client's Home > IRC: dropdown list.
- If there are reports that the Mibbit client cannot connect, once the entry is set up, then the "public" entry will be removed.
- Only say yes if both:
- IRCd version
- General description of the network
- A tag such as "Gaming", "Support", "Politics", ect.
- Network name
- Send an email to ircstaff@mibbit.com or contact a staff member on IRC.Mibbit.net in the #help channel (if you are lucky to find an active ircop):
- Staff member (ircop) via IRC
- Make sure the person is a staff member (/whois). Staff members are listed in the /motd.
- Ask if anybody is available to add a WebIRC entry.
- If a staff member responds in the positive, send them the information gathered above via a private message.
- Pastebin your information to save time.
- If not, send an email. You can send an email without trying on IRC, but it can be faster to set up through IRC.
- Send an email.
- The subject should include "WebIRC" and your network name. For example, "Example Net: WebIRC Configuration".
- Send the email to ircstaff@mibbit.com.
- Include all of the gathered information.
- Most emails are processed within 24 hours.
- Staff member (ircop) via IRC
- Once your information is added to our database, we will give you a confirmation message, whether through IRC or email.
