  Dear moderator,

  Could my page embed a chatroll directly? The help page on chatroll suggested that I contact the wordpress staff regarding this matter.

  Thank you for your time.

  Where are you getting the Chatroll from?

  chatroll.com

  The site suggested these steps
  from http://chatroll.com/forum-publicum/install?platform=wordpress-com

  1. Host your own WordPress blog: http://wordpress.org

  2. Contact WordPress.com to request support for the [chatroll] shortcode: http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/
  
  3. Use a free blog service that supports Chatroll, for example: http://blogger.com

  Well, but we can’t support their embed code for security reasons, but we’ll take the shortcode into consideration.

  May I know how to use the shortcode? would it just be like any other link to the chatroll?

  Also, are there any alternative chatboxes that wordpress has available?

  Thank you so so much for your time.

  Chatroll is not currently a supported service on WordPress.com. As an alternative, you can create a link to your Chatroll chat by copying and pasting the HTML code from Chatroll to your WordPress blog or Text Widget.

  Additionally, we do not have any chat services available on WordPress at this time.
