Hi,

Does arrowchat nor have a standard installation script for any feestanding wordpress site? When i work my way through the installation it comes to a page where i can choose the software but all i see is 'wordpress.com' option and not normal wordpress. Sureley there is a script to install simply into wordpress without having to get into filling database fields out?

You do need to enter your WordPress database details so that ArrowChat can read your existing users to log them in automatically.

You should select WordPress during installation so that the details are already filled out for you.

so the wordpress.com icon will work for a normal non wordpress.com hosted website? where should i put the arrow chat folder as the installer couldn't find it last time when choosing the wordpress install. can i put it in the wp-content folder or even in the primary wordpress directory?

You put it in your integration's folder. In other words, put it in the same folder that all your other WordPress main folders are in.
