In this example it is 18. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- How to find your user ID Find the user that is going to be your bot and click on the user name. Now look at the URL in the address bar. It should look something like the one below http://www.yourwebsite.com/member.php?u=2 <--- The number at the end of the URL will be the user ID.

Whenever bot tries to PM a certain member with PM disabled, or something similar, it returns a big error. So far only fix for it is, disable PM for that topic and run it again. Maybe after my exams, I can have a better look. Other than that, the new version is just fine Supporters / CoAuthors Show Your Support

The script freezes after five minutes of checking and then i have to run the
vbbot.php?deletefile script and then the vbbot.php again manually. What is the problem? EDIT I Don't even get the "Now script will pause for 15 seconds" message, the script just freezes. |

@rxms you cannot change the check method one all new topics have been checked run the bot once again to check old topics...
Question : Would you guys like a feature to change methods ? @pierians you are facing the classic rs error. (It happens when rs links dont respond to fix this) You can either ignore this topic or delete it (to know how to ignore read the faq in maxwcoders.) how did i find out what topic its hanging at ? i replaced Code:
$tid = $re1['threadid']; Code:
$tid = $re1['threadid']; echo $tid; exit(); Code:
$tid = $re1['threadid']; echo $tid; exit(); Code:
$tid = $re1['threadid']; |

its a shame this did not work for me as I imported my board from phpbb all posts from that earlier time was not being picked up and it sent hundreds of working links to the junk
i had to restore my forum because there was far too many links for me to move back |

Yeah because i told you had an option to prune old posts (most of them would have dead links)

Hmm, when it frozed i runned the deletescript so i don't excactly know which threads are problematic...
So this doesn't help me a lot :-( Sorry i now saw that you told me how to do this in your previous post. The thing i'm doing now, for the script to complete one full search of my site, is: I've opened 2 tabs one is the vbbot.php and the other is vbbot.php?=delete and i've made those tabs automatically refresh every five minutes. |
