Add a Web Chat To Your Web Site



"This is actually what Lockergnome is using...we're using the WyldRyde IRC Network...Its fantastic, I would consider using virtually no other chat software at this point. It works! I don't have any complaints about it!"
- Chris Pirillo of CNN.com, TechTV, Lockergnome.com, & Gnomedex     
The WyldRyde Flash Chat can be added to any web page on any web server, even free web hosts such as AOL, Blogger, Geocities, and Yahoo! The only requirement is a web browser that supports Adobe Flash
We do not display banner ads or popups on your site or install adware or spyware. But donations are greatly appreciated!


We have made adding a free chatroom to your web site as easy as possible. Please take a moment to read our Terms of Service to ensure your channel will not violate our common sense polices.

If you already registered a chatroom (channel) on WyldRyde, jump to step #4. Otherwise start with step #1.

  1. Connect to WyldRyde: If you are a novice computer user we suggest you use our Web Chat to join the server and start chatting right away. If you are more experienced with computers we suggest you download and use your own IRC chat client. (With an IRC Client there are three basic steps involved in joining the network -- selecting and downloading an IRC chat client, configuring the client, and logging on to a server.)

    All commands in the following steps are typed in to the Web Chat or an IRC chat client that is connected to WyldRyde. If you should require any assistance with the following steps please do not hesitate to ask for help in our Help Chat.


  2. Register your own nick:
    1. Make sure your nickname is one you want to use while moderating your chatroom. To change your nick type /nick new-nick. Replace new-nick with the nickname you want to switch to and hit enter. Note: Your nickname should only consist of English letters, may not include spaces, and should not include punctuation.


    2. Copy the following /msg nickserv register password email to the chat client. Replace password with a unique password you can remember, replace email with your email address. Please remember that passwords are case sensitive. Double check your password and email address then hit enter. (When ever you reconnect to the network you will have to Identify yourself to NickServ, to do this you'll type /ns identify password .)


  3. Register the channel name:
    1. To create a channel, select a channel name under 18 letters long (not including the pound [#] sign) and type /join #channelname. Example, if you wish to select the channel name #MyFirstChannel, you will type /join #MyFirstChannel. Note: Your channel name may only consist of English letters and may not include spaces. Do not use punctuation or numbers. Once joined be sure you have Ops (@) besides your nickname.


    2. To register a channel, you can use /msg chanserv register #channelname password here channel description here. In this example, we will register the channel #MyFirstChannel using oUet562 as the password and A Cool Chat Channel as its description. So, you will type:

      /msg chanserv register #MyFirstChannel oUet562 A Cool Chat Channel

      Please remember that passwords are case sensitive. Example, STAR and star are not the same. (If you do forget the channel password, you may use /msg chanserv sendpass #channelname your email .) Once done, you will get a response message from ChanServ informing you it was successful and some information that is important to be read. For more information on ChanServ commands and options, you can refer to our ChanServ Commands Guide.
