How to use the chatrooms on this site
Did you know that our site has a chatroom facility which
allows you to talk to other members in realtime?
Probably not, to be honest - it's so well hidden, we sometimes have trouble finding it ourselves. So here's a handy guide to accessing the chatrooms, joining in and creating topics.
1. With MoreToLifeThanShoes.com open in your browser window, look for the chatroom icon at the bottom left of the screen, and click it.
2. The chat window will open. Chatrooms are live - they only exist when someone is online and using them. If they're inactive for 10 minutes, they disappear. So, you might find some chatrooms already running, or no one may be chatting at the moment. The active rooms are listed on the right.
3. If there's a room you want to join, click on it in the right pane. The conversation will appear in the main pane. You can join in by typing comments in the bottom text box and pressing Enter. Everyone in the room will see your comments.
4. If there's no active room you want to join, you can start your own. Click Create Chatroom at the bottom left and give it a name. Now other people can join your room.
5. If you want to get a chat going, why not use the forum to set a date and time and invite people to join in - then you'll have someone to talk to when you set up your room. You can start chats to discuss MTLTS groups, meet-ups, or any topic you like. We'll also be announcing MTLTS chatroom events soon.
