Getting Started

Create your first chat room and embed it on your website in under 5 minutes.

Quick Start

Sign in to the Dashboard using your Discord or Patreon account. This creates your owner account and lets you manage rooms.

Click "Create Room" in the dashboard. Give it a name and optionally configure settings like authentication requirements and moderation options.

After creating a room, you'll see an iframe snippet. Copy this code:

<iframe
  src="https://chat.ninjachatter.com/?room=YOUR_ROOM_ID"
  style="width:100%;height:500px;border:none;"
  allow="clipboard-write"
></iframe>

Add the iframe code to your website, streaming page, or blog. The chat will load automatically and viewers can start chatting!

The free tier includes 1 room with up to 100 concurrent viewers. Upgrade to Pro for more rooms and higher viewer limits.

Customize the embed appearance with URL parameters:

https://chat.ninjachatter.com/?room=YOUR_ROOM_ID&theme=dark&showHeader=false

For a transparent overlay in OBS or Streamlabs, use the overlay URL:

https://chat.ninjachatter.com/overlay.html?room=YOUR_ROOM_ID

See the OBS Overlay Guide for detailed setup instructions.

Configure how users join your chat:

Requiring authentication helps with moderation since users have verified identities.

Room owners and moderators can:

Ban users - Permanently remove a user from the room
Mute users - Prevent a user from sending messages (timed or permanent)
Stealth ban - User appears normal to themselves but messages aren't shown to others
Delete messages - Remove specific messages from the chat

Access moderation controls by clicking on a user's name in the chat or through the Dashboard.
