autoConnect (for the widget on a per channel basis)

• Modify the Uri parameters for your widget:
  • Add &autoConnect=true

Note: this setting seems to make the connection to the server fail in some cases atm (endless spinning, especcially when using a chrome browser), will be fixed in the next release.

• • Add &delay=30 for heavily visited pages (default is 2)
  • Remove all &xxxPrompt=true parameters (they override autoConnect)
  • You must have &settings=<yourManagerID> (not needed any more in upcoming releases)

Switching autoconnect

• Join #yourChannel using the mibbit client (widget preferred, using the main client results in a delay of up to 15 minutes).

• Make sure you are op (or higher).

• To enable autoconnect type /autoconnect on , response notices:
  • SYSTEM: Auto connect (widget) for #<your channel> : on
  • SYSTEM: The widget will be able to auto-connect here.

• The command /autoconnect off disables autoconnect, response:
  • SYSTEM: Auto connect (widget) for #<your channel> : off

The commands are only needed once, the setting is stored in a db.

Auto-connect for the main client is done in the "Channels" tab, see: Autoidentify
