• On: logs transcripts automatically, turn rotates transcripts on or transcripts will stop when they have reached 4mb in size.
  
• Off: does not log transcripts automatically.
  

Enable via room room.profile file

The following addition to a ParaChat room profile (.../ParaChat/ParaChat550/rooms/<room_name>.profile) is required to auto-log text in each chat room that you create:
channel.logfile=<file_name>
For example, if you wanted your transcript file to be called ChatRoom.log, the statement would be written as:
channel.logfile=ChatRoom.log
The addition of this statement to the room profile for each ParaChat room will auto-log all text in the main chat window, and will continue to append the log file until the statement is removed.

The log file for each ParaChat room is located in the "logs" directory (.../ParaChat/ParaChat550/logs/#<room_name>).

Once you have added the channel.logfile=<file_name> statement to the room profile, enter the ParaChat room for which the statement has been added using your server or room admin name and password, and execute the following command:

/room reread
This command will ensure that the chat room is using the most recent room profile configuration.

The default maximum length of a transcript file for each ParaChat room is 4M bytes. If you would like to increase your transcript file size to 40M bytes, for example, you would need to add the following statement to each room profile:

channel.max_transcript_length=40000000
