Hi,

Great work.

Is it possible to make a private chat room and when user reload the page chat history load from the database?

Thanks

Yes if you enable the database in config.php you could show chat history in the chat. However every time you reload a page a new random user is created so it would not make sence. You should first make the user not random and then load the chat history from the database. This will not be hard to implement.
