How to make Chatbox on every page

Hello, this tutorial will go through the steps on how to put the Chatbox on every page!

Step 1. Go to Admin Panel>General>Messages and Emails>Announcements.
Step 2. In announcements set Activate Announcements to-Yes, Set Announcement Display to-All Pages, Set Scrolling to- Deactivate
Now press save on lower bottom
Step 3. Make a new Announcement by pressing the green + sign at very bottom of announcements page. Name the announcement chat or Chatbox and enter this code in the text area-

Code:: <span style="margin: 0 auto;width:99%"><iframe frameborder="0" width=100%" height="300" src="/chatbox" marginheight="2" marginwidth="2" scrolling="auto" allowtransparency="yes"></iframe></span>

(sometimes the width has to be adjusted to look good)
Now save the announcement.
Step 4. Go to Admin Panel>Modules>Chatbox>Configuration.
Step 5. Make sure Activate Chatbox is on Yes, if it isn't then change it to yes. Now Change Chatbox Display From "Top of the Homepage" to "Do not display" (this prevents two chat box's from showing.) Now click Validate at bottom right.
Step 6. Return to forum and be able to chat on every page!
