JTZL's Chat for WebIRC
This plugin provides a shortcode that renders a lightweight IRC client written in vanilla JavaScript. It supports direct WebSocket connections to IRC servers (IRCv3-friendly) and includes an optional WebIRC gateway. Security-conscious defaults: Server allow-list (host:port format), WSS (WebSockets over SSL/TLS) only Optional WebSocket subprotocols (e.g., text.ircv3.net) Optional WS path (e.g., /webirc) Optional CSP connect-src helper (off by default) Input sanitization and validation Proper escaping of output Features: Modern Responsive Design: Mobile-first approach with adaptive layouts for all screen sizes Enhanced Mobile Experience: Touch-optimized interface with proper virtual keyboard support Smart Responsive Behavior: Overlay sidebar on mobile, collapsible on tablet, side-by-side on desktop Editable Username: Click-to-edit nickname with real-time validation and user persistence User Persistence: Automatic nickname saving for logged-in WordPress users Lightweight vanilla TypeScript/JavaScript implementation (no frameworks) Fully responsive design with semantic HTML Internationalization ready (i18n strings) Configurable server allow-list with strict validation WebSocket subprotocol support (IRCv3) Optional WebIRC gateway fallback Comprehensive IRC slash commands: 30+ commands including /join, /part, /nick, /msg, /whois, /topic, /away, /help, and more Automatic nickname generation and collision handling Debug logging and connection status indicators Optional Content Security Policy (CSP) header generation WordPress hooks and filters for extensibility Follows WordPress Coding Standards Usage Basic Usage: Simply add the shortcode [chat_webirc] to any page or post where you want the IRC chat to appear.
