Works like a charm on 3.6.4. Any ideas how to fix the special chars being displaced correctly? Ä, ö, ü, etc.

Hey guys I'm having a little bit of a problem. I got the eggdrop all setup and configured, added the script to its config file. I changed the settings in the Administration panel, but when I type in my IRC server, chat.3wheelerworldforums.com its cutting off the .com I guess because its so long. Consequently, my stats on the index are not updating or even showing anything other then zero. I'm using 3.6.5 Any help would be really appreciated.

Well the stats seemed to have fixed themselves (refresh period perhaps or something?) But My server name is still to long to be displayed on the forum. Not a big deal though.

Thanks for the most excellent mod that does infact work with the 3.6 series :D


edit: The only other thing I did notice that isn't working, is the activity bar. You can check it on my homepage http://www.3wheelerworldforums.com

Installed(thanks).

It looked like it's working but I have to admit it wasn't easy getting this mod to work on a local testserver /windrop. Took about 2 hours of tinkering and adjusting to get it going.

Problems encountered were as follows:
---------------------------------------------------------------
1. Install says to add "sources scripts/ircrefresh.tcl" to eggdrop.conf

Windrop uses "source scripts/ircrefresh.tcl" command instead

2. Windrop http package wasn't configured to load.

Copied http.tlc from X:\Windrop\lib\tcl8.4\http2.5\ to \Windrop\scripts and added the line source scripts/http.tcl in eggdrop.conf before source scripts/ircrefresh.tcl from step 1.

3. Configured Eggdrop IRC Manager Options under vBulletin Options but failed to see the new IRC Channels Manager in the ACP menu listing(did not refresh after product install)

4. Rehashing the bot failed to load script. Issued DCC .restart command instead.

5. Changed the channel title and forumhome finally displayed stats

Hope this helps someone.

PS. installed and running on

• vBulletin 3.6.8
• Conference Room 2.4
• Windrop 1.6.18

Exact same problems here(sadly)

My server url/ port is to long and thus truncated by the script.
The stats activity meter doesn't work.

I don't know why but ever since the eggdrop addon's came about for vbulletin, they have always been subject to buggy operation and sparse support.

I found a way to fix the truncated server name. The max character limit is set to 25 in the product, so we can adjust that to whatever we like. Unfortunately, I was not able to make the changes within the loaded product/plugin templates so I had to uninstall and re-install the product in order for the changes to take effect.

Here is the edit:
Open product-eggdrop_irc_manager.1.0.0.1.xml in a script compliant editor(I used Dreamweaver) and find the line(usually 12):
Change the (25) to (30) or something higher. Save and re-import the product and the max character value for that field will be longer.

Hope this helps.

I have a question...

In the event that a forum has guest forum permissions turned off, the eggdrop cannot access the irconline.php file(forum permission). Is there a way to move irconline.php to higher dir level on the server and what needs to be changed in order to do that?

Hey John, did you end up with the problem I was/am having on the activity meter never changing? I poked around inside the product file numerous times looking to see if I could edit the values to perhaps lower them, but I never did see anything. I don't think its the character limit, because I ended up using just the IP address for my server instead. I don't have the answer to your question about irconline.php, sorry :(

Will there be a re-release for 3.7 ?
