How can I use this in a cms widget?

Not yet.
Unfortunately, all major vB cms tools cost money. And since i haven't one of those and only use the regular vBulletin, i'm afraid i can't help you with this :(

Hello ...

Lately, I've noticed a single user constantly trying to connect to our server, almost every minute or so. :confused:

Ironically, it seems to be our own host server used for our forum members to post messages and it's also the place in some cases from which they can initiate TeamSpeak session using this add-on mod.

So, any idea why our vBulletin server would all of a sudden be continually tying to connect to our TeamSpeak 3 server constantly, when it was doing that previous to the last few weeks?

The only thing new is we recently upgraded too V4.0.4pl1

Anyone else seeing anything else like this?

Appreciate any guidance ? :)

Doug

Hm, never noticed any behaviour like this.
I suspect, that either searchbots are trying to follow the link, connecting to the teamspeak server, but to do so, they must know how to use the teamspeak3 protocol, which i don't think is the case.
In the first beta versions of ts3, teamspeak displayed the connect/disconnect events of an anonymous user, who was used by the tsviewer to connect, grab the list of everyone who is online, disconnect and display that information on the website.
Fortunately, this has been patched several beta versions ago.
There might be a problem with your teamspeak3 server configuration, but i'm not so much into ts3 server config.

Could you provide a screenshot of what exactly is going on?

The tech support from the paid hosted TS3 server site said it appears to be coming from our site and is more than likely the query client that is logging in to check who's on-line?

I've sent you via PM the log detail generated by the TS3 server...

As I mentioned, it never used to happen and we haven't changed anything, except to update to 4.0.4pl1 and also install the most current client version of TS3, which I can't see having any impact. I've tested the functionality of the TS3 server and loading through your mod from Windows and it works fine (doesn't work through Safari and Firefox on a Mac though).

It just looks odd to see the "Who's Chatting" number keep flipping from 0 to 1 frequently, but when you look there's no user name because the login was rejected.

Thanks for your help .. :)

Well, seems to me like a teamspeak-related issue.
Try this:
How the teamspeak server is queried can't really changed as far as I know. But this setting seems to hide these query information.

Thank you ... :)

Here's what I changed to "NO" on our TS3 hosted server settings .. correct item?

It has always been "YES", so I'm not sure why it started to log all this stuff, unless the hosting company or a new iteration of the TS3 server side software was altered....

Well, that would make the most sense to me

I have vb 4.0.5 and installed this as to your instructions. when installing the XML file I get this (XML Error: XML_WAR_UNKNOWN_VERSION at Line 412)

Any suggestions

Hi

Please check if you have any whitespaces or newlines in your xml file. The xml file should contain the "<" as very first character and the ">" as very last character in the xml file. No whitespaces or newlines, otherwise the install script may throw an error.

I will check the plugin with the newest version tomorrow and see if the newest version might cause the problem.
