Playlist

This guide will help you get a playlist for your xat chat. Please follow these steps carefully!

Registering

xat.com does NOT have their own playlist service. For this guide, we will use Playlist.com (so register there). You can use any other service, but the steps may differ.

Creating a Playlist

After you login to your account, you should see a search bar. Enter a song title/artist, and press the enter/return key. You will see results appear. Click the PLAY button to preview the song, or click the PLUS button to add it to your playlist.

Putting the Playlist on your xat chat / xatspace

Getting the Code

After you setup a playlist, press "My Playlists" at the very top of the page. You should see this:

Click the SHARE button, and fill out the information it asks. Then click "Get Code", and you will see the embed code your playlist.

Putting it on your chat

Press the "EDIT" link at the bottom right of your chat (must be a Group), and then enter your group password and scroll down to the media box. Enter the embed code to your playlist there (you can put it onto any page), then click Save Changes. Then your playlist will appear under your chat! (Note may take upto 10 minutes to go live.)

Putting it on your xatspace

To put it on your xatspace, go to http://xat.com/web_gear/chat/editprofile.php and enter your login information. Then input the embed code into the second box (Media box). Then save changes and it will appear on your xatspace. (Note change may take upto 10 minutes to go live.)

Note

• Consider turning autoplay off, especially if you have more than one playlist or your playlist is hard to see. Users who have a tough time figuring out the source of the music on your chat may leave.
• Make sure you are obeying the xat terms of service with your playlist.
• Other playlists work on xat, but the steps to set those up may differ from this article.
• If you want a radio instead of playlists (radios play lots of music while playlists play from a list), see the Radio article.
• Playlist.com is not affiliated with xat.com in any way.
