This chat plugin relies on the XMPP protocol (also known as Jabber).It is therefore possible to connect to the chats using [XMPP client software](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XMPP#Clients).This can be useful for example to facilitate moderation operations.
The features described on this page must be enabled and configured by your Peertubeinstance's administrators. You may therefore not have access to them.

By default, the share button is only visible to the owner of the video, and the admins/moderators of the instance.However, admins can decide to display this button for everyone.
