roomlio

Roomlio is an embeddable chat platform. It allows you to simply and quickly embed a chat room anywhere on your WordPress pages or posts. It differs from existing chat applications because it focuses on embedding group chat 
rooms in existing pages instead of sending your users off to a 3rd part chat application. You can think of it as offering 
embeddable “Twitch style” or “Youtube style” chat for your WordPress users and visitors. Although Roomlio focuses on embedding chat rooms inside of WordPress, it still provides an app 
for admins and operators to manage all the embedded channels and chat with embedded users.

<li>Automatically securely identify your logged in WordPress users. No separate login required. (If users are not logged in they will be identified based on geolocation)</li>
<li>No code required. Our plugin lets you place chat room widgets where you want them in a user friendly way.</li>
