Any Size User Base and Communities can now integrate Chatwing directly.

Custom login feature allows you the developer to integrate your own account system into your chatWING chatbox so that your users can start chatting without having to registering a new account or using another account from Facebook, Twitter etc...



Use the Following Instructions to Integrate:


How to automatically login user

Once you have custom login enabled, you can also integrate it within your website so that users won't have to login twice. In order to do so, you must follow the process of encrypting the user session in "How to integrate" section.
When you have the encrypted session, simply append it using the query param custom_session to the chatbox url (if you are using iFrame code)
http://chatwing.com/chatbox/83206479-8cb4-455a-a0ef-59506057fa13?custom_session=<?= $encryptedSession ?>
or direct url
http://chatwing.com/admin1626?custom_session=<?= $encryptedSession ?>
If you are using Javascript code to embed chatwing chatbox (either it is embedded or popout version), you need to do this. chatWING Javascript code automatically picks any encrypted session stored in window.chatwingSession and appends it into the chatbox url.
<script type="text/javascript">
  window.chatwingSession = "<?= $encryptedSession ?>";
</script>
NOTE: If you have more than one chatbox in the same page, you need to generate different encrypted sessions using different secrets (from each chatbox) because one encrypted session can only be used for one chatbox.

How to integrate (in English)

In order to use custom login feature, you must provide the login URL, user icon and login button icon.
  • Login URL: When an anonymous user wants to login, they are redirected to this URL. In the login URL, you must provide a way for users to login and/or register new account. You are responsible for handling any errors that may occur during the process. After the user is authenticated, you must redirect them back to redirect_url (it is provided automatically when calling login url from the chatbox) along with a new query param called custom_sessioncontaining the encrypted session of the user (more on it later).
    For example, if your login url is http://mydomain.com/chatwing-login, the redirecting url would be
    http://mydomain.com/chatwing-login?redirect_url=http%3A%2F%2Fchatwing.com%2Fchatbox%2F83206479-8cb4-455a-a0ef-59506057fa13%2Fcustom
    
    After authenticating and encrypting the user session, you must redirect the user back to us by using the above redirect_url and append the encrypted session in custom_session
    http://chatwing.com/chatbox/83206479-8cb4-455a-a0ef-59506057fa13/custom?custom_session=[the encrypted session]
    
  • Secret: This is used to encrypt the custom user session. Here is an example of the PHP implementation
    $data = array(
      'id' => 1,
      'name' => 'Custom Login',
      'avatar' => 'http://mydomain.com/avatar/1.png',
      'expire' => round(microtime(true) * 1000) + 60*60*1000 // in millisecond
    );
    $data = json_encode($data);
    $blocksize = 16;
    $secret = '';
    $md5 = md5($secret);
    // Strictly maintains the length of key and iv
    $key = substr($md5, 0, 16);
    $iv = substr($md5, 16, 16);
    // We need to pad the input manually to match with the server-side's padding scheme
    $pad = $blocksize - (strlen($data) % $blocksize);
    $data = $data . str_repeat(chr($pad), $pad);
    $encryptedSession = bin2hex(mcrypt_encrypt(MCRYPT_RIJNDAEL_128, $key, $data, MCRYPT_MODE_CBC, $iv));
    
    • id (required): It can be anything as long as it is unique to identify each user
    • name (required): Name, just name
    • avatar (required): Absolute path to the avatar (must start with http:// or https://, otherwise, http:// will be appended automatically)
    • expire (optional): The lifespan of your custom session (in millisecond). It is recommended that you set it to a reasonable value to avoid identity thief
  • User icon: The icon displayed near the name (must be 16x16) Custom login user icon
  • Login button: The button displayed in the login method dialog (must be 88x25) Custom login button

One of the most useful features of the Chatwing platform is the network or group system.  Through these networks, you’ll be able to market your products efficiently. Accessing the networks is easy and you can be exposed to hundreds of people worldwide.



To access the networks, you need to go straight to your dashboard. From there, you can link the chatroom into any of the available networks. These networks are divided according to popular niches; it’s advisable to select a niche that’s parallel to the products or services that you’re offering. With your chatroom connected, you can access various streams of information related to your target niche.

There’s no limit when the chat widget comes to network connections—you can basically connect and reconnect to any networks, but only one can be active at a time. Currently, the Chatwing developers are planning to add new networks for better variety.



When it comes to Internet marketing, Chatwing’s networks can give a significant boost. It has been estimated that every network has over dozens of active chatters, and all of them are seeking for timely information. Some of the popular networks are Forex, Sports, Fashion, Hollywood Movies, Anime, and International Chat.

More importantly, all of your active Chat Wing chatrooms can be connected to networks. This is a diverse communication strategy that will make your Internet marketing effort more productive.

A popular Chatwing use is convergence among Twitter communities and niche chatrooms. Here are some reasons why convergence is important between Twitter and ChatWING.




Both Utilize Communication

Twitter is all about micro-blogging, just like Tumblr. Chatwing, on the other hand, is about the usage of chatrooms. Nevertheless, both of them tackle communication to a certain degree.

In Chatwing widget, you can benefit from the Twitter login system. With this, visitors can use their Twitter accounts to log in. From there, it’s possible to send friend requests to these Twitter users. Now, there’s a mobile way for you to grow your followers.

The effect is also mutual. You can share your Chatwing chatroom to your Twitter wall. Simply generate a shortlink from your Chatwing dashboard and your Twitter followers can just click on it. Upon doing that, your chatroom will pop up and regular conversations can begin.

The Exposure is high

Exposure is an important factor in the cyberspace. Without this, websites will never grow, and products will have a hard time reaching people. There are hundreds of ways of generating exposure, and Chatwing-Twitter connectivity is an easy tactic.

Apparently, Chatwing chat widget can provide up to 65% exposure rate to any website—provided the usage is continuous. If the widget is linked to Twitter, the rate can even go up, depending on the niche.

If you know how to utilize the convergence among these two platforms, you’ll have greater communication within your reach. Just be patient in trying out new communication strategies from time to time.
