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.

[internetjunkie]

[Murphinator]

you cant really, it most likly wont matter if the database is still changed

[wolfe]

my bot only knows one reply

I'm not feeling very well at the moment, try again later.

no matter whats you post thats it

i have installed it all corrently and used botloader ??

[SIINSI]

Ny idea how to make him only respond when his name is said like the old version?

Here is the post that did it in the old version but, the new _talkerbot.php is complete different than the old one...

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=581

also, for all of you having a problem running the botloader.php and getting that ...blahblahblah on line 508 stuff, open your dbprefs.php file and where you put your path in put a "/" in the beginning of your path. Worked for me.

Can anyone help me on this talkerbot I think I have it all done right But dont seem to get any respose from the bot anywhere

[Cole2026]

I get an internal server error, anyone know what causes it? This happens when running botloader.php

[Rickk]

I also posted this to the "official" support thread, but it doesn't seem as if anyone is helping those poor people, so I thought I'd post this here aswell:

I'm getting a strange error in my boatloaderfuncs.php file during the botloader loading file.

It says (***'s replace urls):
Warning: fopen(subs.inc): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /hsphere/local/home/***/botloaderfuncs.php on line 85

and:
Warning: fwrite(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /hsphere/local/home/***/botloaderfuncs.php on line 77

The second one is displayed seven times.
I thought it would be a chmod prob, but everything is chmod'd to 777.

The lines that have the problems in the botloaderfuncs are:
function addtosubs($string){

global $fp;

fwrite($fp,$string);

}

function createsubfile(){

global $fp;

$fp = fopen ("subs.inc", "w+");

}

Edit: Well I fixed the problems that I was having (it WAS a ChMOD prob), but the bot doesn't seem to reply to anything. At all.
It's very strange.

Have you made sure that _talkerbot.php is configged to talk in the forums? If you're using rateofbotposting you also need to change the percentage of each forum in the administration panel.

When replying or starting posts i get this error:

Warning: file_get_contents(http://www.forums.mpanetwork.com/for...e+you+today%3F): failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! HTTP/1.1 401 Authorization Required in /home/david/public_html/forums/_talkerbot.php on line 82


Then the bot always just says:
I'm not feeling very well at the moment, try again later.

I have no idea what could be wrong. I followed all the instructions and EVERYTHING is CHMODed to 777.

Any ideas would be great!
