add mChat to custom style

I have a custom style done by someone else, no idea what it's based on.
(prosilver subsilver2 or whatever)
Installed mChat and it works great with standard styles of pro silver, subsilver2 but I forgot to screen capture the files that were changed after the auto mod was done.
Where can I find a list of changes to any style to try and mod my custom style?
Thanks

That is a prosilver type style I saw going to your site. You have to do the prosilver edits for that style.
Instructions on what templates need to be edited are in the install.xml file that came with the download.
Open that file up with your browser. And you will have to enable mchat for guests if you want us to look at it.

ok, all done, almost works
index page works, missing chat link in top right
going to refresh style and theme, purge cache, see if that helps

That did the trick.
Everything is working.
Turned of Guest access to chat.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
Love it when stuff works the way it was coded.
