Done. Will be in 1.0.7
I've added Floris's IRC server to the first post. :)

Thanks for the release! Been waiting for an IRC chat since I'm running on 3.7 now.

can i view a live demo?

Sure, but you'd have to register in order to view anything on IRC.

(Just started today)

And of course, I'm running 1.0.7 on my board. I run Beta versions.

maybe for an update you can add on the profile the options for the nickserv
like /identify and the password, so the users can auto register on the irc channel

Hmm..I will look into that.
I was thinking about this in 1.0.2

Cool :D

About time someone made a new vb irc integration mod and actually kept it up to date!

A few things that I've hacked into my vbjirc install that I'm sure more members would find useful:
  • Being able to add pjirc applet params in the config. There are a massive amount of variables used to configure pjirc, giving users more access to these would make this a lot more popular. Simple things from the basics like making it so people can't leave certain channels to completely skinning the applet, having the default blue on a theme that isn't the same colours just looks ugly. Also being able to change the applet width, there's no problems with it being set to a percentage if you're using a fluid theme. Obviously these can all be changed in the template, but would be handy to have them in the options.
  • Different params depending on usergroups? Restricting channels/colours/smilie usage if they're a guest, giving more options depending on other groups, etc.
  • Nick/ident checking before connecting. One thing where vbjirc fails is it doesn't rewrite the nick names if they're not irc compatible. Obviously every network is different, so this really has to be something set by the administrator. You obviously can't connect to a server with spaces in your nick, and on some networks you can't connect if your nickname starts with a number.
  • Multiple servers. Most major networks have more than one, and will only allow connection from ones closest geographically. For someone who doesn't know about IRC, having the client cycle through several different servers if it doesn't connect the first time would make life easier.
All of these are just ideas, in reality 90% of my users never heard of irc (Even though our community started there, and grew into a forum..) and still find it a bit too complex!

Obviously these can all be changed in the template, but would be handy to have them in the options.
  • Adding a vBulletin option for extra default configuration values can set this up quite easily, do you just mean the normal pjirc config?
  • Different params depending on usergroups? Restricting channels/colours/smilie usage if they're a guest, giving more options depending on other groups, etc.
  • Restricting channels is not possible from the client side I think. This would require usergroup bitfields which I have no clue how to use. Smilies and colors cannot be limited as far as I can see.
    Or I can just add
    <param name="authorizedjoinlist" value="none+$vboptions[ezirc_allowlist]">

    which will only work properly if set up properly.
  • Nick/ident checking before connecting. One thing where vbjirc fails is it doesn't rewrite the nick names if they're not irc compatible. Obviously every network is different, so this really has to be something set by the administrator. You obviously can't connect to a server with spaces in your nick, and on some networks you can't connect if your nickname starts with a number.
  • Hmm I thought I did this somewhere in 1.0.4, maybe it deleted itself cause I run on a live board, not a debug one.
    I will readd this in 1.0.7
  • Multiple servers. Most major networks have more than one, and will only allow connection from ones closest geographically. For someone who doesn't know about IRC, having the client cycle through several different servers if it doesn't connect the first time would make life easier.
  • So, like alternate servers should one go down? Easy. :)

I've replied in the quote.

Is there a easy way to configure this to only join a specified irc server. Then stop users from using the /server command?

If so were in the configuration could I do this?

Nadiar 05-19-2008 12:17 PM

Is there a way to change the username someone logs in with?

Right now if the name is taken it appends a 3 digit number
I'd like to see something like Username-Java or something before it tries using the digits.
