* [Home](help)
There are two possibilities to use a chat on your friendica site
* IRC Chat
* Jappix
##IRC-Chat Plugin
After activating the plugin, you can find the chat at [yoursite.com/irc](../irc). Note: you can use this chat without any login at your site so that everyone could use it.
If you follow the link, you will see the login page of the IR chat. Now choose a nickname and a chatroom. You can choose every name for the room, even something like #superchatwhosenameisonlyknownbyme. At last, solve the captchas and click the connect button.
The following window shows some text while connecting. This text isn't importend for you, just wait for the next window. The first line shows your name and your current IP address. The right part of the window shows all user. The lower part of the window contains an input field.
