I've go it running every 5 minutes and gave it the nick Census. With a nick that reflected what it was doing, it became less annoying.

This page uses its output: http://www.daily-web.info/modules.php?s=&name=Live

Open two browsers to this page. Leave one there. In the second, enter one of the discussion rooms. Doesn't matter which one. Wait until you see the census bot join and leave.

Refresh the first browser and verify that the info updated and that your nick in listed in the room.

Hmm, well I waited for about 10 minutes in a channel yet no census ever showed. Nor the page ever update. :ermm:

You're correct. As I said, the script is really an lightweight IRCbot and, like many bots, it got temporarily k-lined. I switched it over to a new bot-friendly server and its fine.

First of all, I've been begging for this for months....thank you!

I could use a little help though. I'm not sure exactly how to fill out some of the values.

Okay, you stated that it is case sensitive, so I assume something should be edited here. I only have one channel, #reefaquariumguide, do I enter this into the #channel spot? And do I leave a 0 after it?


In this line from the perl script:

Do I edit that with the name of my channel as well?

I've got it setup now but get nothing. I am monitoring the chat and the bot never shows up. Just in case I setup the cron wrong I also tried running it in the command prompt. I checked the error logs and I don't see any errors it caused, but nothing shows up in the chat.

Thanks for any help :)

Okay, solved my own question through trial and error I think. For others who might be as dumb as me.....put your channel in the first part I asked about....the second part stays as is.

The database is updating for me now. Could you give me a quick clue on what to edit in the php/templates? I tried putting $channelusers into the forumhome template but think I need to do something else because nothing displays.

Any help? Or maybe at least point me to a place for the answer?

I'm feeling soooo unloved :( :(

Come on guys, someone help me out? I have the hack basically working, but being a PHP/SQL dummy I don't know how to make the variables work so I can display it. I know how to edit a template and put the variable where I want it.....but it is empty. I think I need to edit index.php maybe? I've been waiting for a who's in chat hack that didn't require eggdrop since January.......now I'm so close but not quite there.

You're on the right track. You have a variable in a template, but it contains nothing because it hasn't been loaded. Go into index.php and add the sql commands to load the variable.

Sorry for the late response, but I've been working on a tcl script for an eggdrop bot that does the database inserts directly via Mytcl on JOINs PARTs KICKs, QUICKs and server pings. That way the data will always be current since it'll be even driven, not time driven.

any help about mysql query please how to add can any body send to me a copmleted copy paste query please
