This plugin only takes care of the integration with WordPress of the AVChat software, but does not contain the actual video chat. After you obtain the AVChat archive from our site, follow these steps : 1. Connect to your web site hosting account using FTP 2. Upload the avchat3 folder (from avchat-3.zip) to your ***/wp-content/plugins*** folder 3. Upload the contents of the folder named Files to upload to your web site from the AVChat 3.0.zip archive to ***/wp-content/plugins/avchat-3/*** 4. Chmod the ***/wp-content/plugins/avchat-3/uploadedFiles*** folder to 777 (otherwise the upload function might not work) 5. Create a new folder tokens (***/wp-content/plugins/avchat-3/tokens***) and CHMOD it to 777 (otherwise we might have token generation issues later on) 6. Go to WordPress admin area and activate the plugin from the Plugins page 7. Enter the rtmp connectionstring in Settings -> AVChat 3 (in the PRO version) . It should look like this: ***rtmp://myFMSserver.com/avchat30/_definst_*** where myFMSserver.com is the domain name or ip of the server where your media server is installed. Otherwise, got to the avc_settings.php file and look for the "connectionstring" property. There you should put the connection to your media server. 8. Create a new page with this content: ***[chat]*** 9. Login the video chat, you will be asked for the license key (it's in your client/trial area on avchathq.com). 10.
