-=====Pidgin===== 
  
-How to set up Pidgin to connect to our Jabber server. See the main [[.:​|Jabber]] page for more details. 
- 
-  - [[http://​www.pidgin.im/​|Download Pidgin]] (A common Jabber Client), install, and open. 
-  - Either from the Welcome screen or the Account menu select **Add a new account**. 
-  - Select the **Protocol** as //XMPP//. 
-  - Fill in the **Username** with the first part of your Jabber ID (e.g. if ''​[email protected]'',​ use ''​account''​). <​sub>​NB if you are in DAWWW specify </​sub>''​[email protected]''​ 
-  - **Domain** is ''​pleaseignore.com''​ 
-  - **Resource** as //Jabber//, or whatever name you want to use (fill this in and it'll save you some pain if you're disconnected). 
-  - Fill in your password in the **Password** field, and tick on "​Remember Password"​. 
- 
- 
-Click **Add**, and Pidgin will attempt to auto connect. It will prompt you about an "​untrusted certificate",​ accept the certificate and you should be connected. 
- 
-NOTE: When you try to fetch the room list or add a room, make sure **Server** is set to //​chat.pleaseignore.com//​. 
- 
-Protip: Enable the '​Join/​Part Hiding'​ plugin. ​ 
- 
-Also, if you use PeerBlock it may block connections to the Jabber service - check this before assuming it's broken! 
- 
-====Can'​t connect==== 
-Set the //connect server// to **jabber.pleaseignore.com**. For Pidgin that's account settings -> advanced tab -> connect server. 
-If you still can't connect please contact your ISP.
