Make a Private Chat Room by Setting OFF Social Sharing

image

In the beginning, we built RumbleTalk chat room with an advance social sharing features. Private chat room was not in the picture back than. The chat service was all about allowing chatters to engage easily with other chatters and easily invite friends to the conversation. Only latter on we added the option to transform a social chat to a private chat room.

At that time most of our customers used the chat to engage with their communities and were glad that the group chat widget allowed them to invite friends and create a buzz around their topic/event. Many of the companies needed a group chat room for:

  • Live Radio Shows
  • Live Events
  • Open Group discussions

RumbleTalk Social features are divided to three areas.

  1. Allow social media sharing (facebook & twitter) in each message sent.
    Allow the users to share parts of the conversation on your facebook & twitter pages
  2. Show “Invite Friends” on the top of the users list.
    When enabled, the “Invite Friends” button will be shown and chatters can invite their friends from facebook and twitter.
  3. Enable auto invite
    When enabled, a user logging into the chat using Facebook or Twitter will be automatically prompted to invite his/her friends to the chat (From our experience, it generate traffic to your chat / site!).

Private Chat Room – Social Sharing Removal

As time passed, RumbleTalk got matured, featureד were added and there was a new type of request from potential customers. Customers started to request the option to have private chat room, or private event which means to remove social sharing capabilities. These were mainly for:

  • Social Stocks Trading
  • Online Support Groups
  • Education Groups
  • Private Events
