Website: www.extremechatforums.com
Original: by: C-birch
Credits: Rapid Gaming (for porting it to vb3)

What This Hack Does.

This hack add a userlike bot to your forums. You can set which forum he will post in and how often he will reply to poeples posts. He will try and build his replies off the text that they posted. This bot will learn overtime slowly from your users posts. I will also be seeing about porting over the teachbot soon.

Some New Features
acp controlled Rate Of Post
ability to post as bot and he will not reply
post count will not go up in forums where post counts are turned off
a few options to turn off and on a few things including the script itself.
Some other stuff i just cant remember

Fixed in 2.0.2:
Go advanced feature works for quick reply.
Bot will no longer reply when post is stopped becuase of an error. (aka floodlimit, to many images, ect)

Fixed in 2.0.1:
Fixed a few minor problems including using the wrong variable in the if statement for the random smilie check.
fixed the install.txt problem used a find code that was from one of my modifications sorry about that.

Upgrading From v2.0.1 Instructions:
These are in the v202 upgrade file

Upgrading From v2.0.0 Instructions:
To upgrade from v2.0 just make your changes to the new _talkerbot.php file and replace the old v2.0 one.


Upgrading From v1 Instructions:
Just use the install.txt and do the forum.php in the acp directory edits.
Add the new phrase and run the query.


Todo List:
Move all settings to acp settings page
fix the floodcheck problem of bot still replying when users post is not made.
Clean up the code more
Figure out more stuff todo.

You set your paths wrong in the _talkerbot.php file.

Hi

I installed TalkerBot and it's working, great job !

I've got one little problem though;
Whenever someone posts a new thread in a forum you can see the 'Last Post' and 'Last Poster Name' in the main forum screen.

But, for any forum where the bot is active, i only see the 'lastposter name' (the bot) , and not the 'lastthread' description :s
This is very annoying, as you can't access the thread straight from the main screen by clicking on it.

I've checked the tables and i see in the table 'Forum' the field 'lastthread' is empty !

Any help would be greatly appreciated :nervous: .

[David S]

i've seen now it only happens when you create a new thread, and the bot replies.
If you reply again, the problem is fixed.

In other words, the problem seems to be 'newthread.php', not 'newreply.php'...

[Holidazed]

I am anxiously waiting for the HTL version of this hack. Any ideas what the timeframe is?
