Current IRC chatters on forumhome via mirc (no eggdrop)

Current IRC Channel Chatters on Forumhome Hack
-written by eyeball (aka supreemball) of http://www.somethingleet.com (ftp mirc script coded by Rich@home.nl)

NEW VERSION updated 01/02/03!
- added support for halfops
- added commas (no comma on last nick either )
- added 'total nicks ever on ' specified #channel

to upgrade from the previous version, replace the code in mirc and the forumhome_loggedinusers template. you don't have to overwrite the ftp.mrc file or mess with global.php while upgrading, nothing's changed with those.

This hack shows a specified IRC channel's current userlist, total # of users, and status of each user
(opped, voiced, or normal, including bold/italics for each category), all on your vb forum's main page.
This hack ONLY requires ftp access to the forum server, and <a href="http://www.mirc.com">mIRC</a> 5.91 or above (constantly connected to the channel). No bots or java irc crap needed! (mirc script code can be added to mirc-based bots though.)

A live demo of this hack is shown @ http://www.somethingleet.com/forum/index.php (shown below
the Current Online Forum Users list).

Files modified:
global.php
access.ini (used in mirc)

Templates modified:
forumhome_loggedinusers

Install.txt & needed files attached.

For support, reply to this thread or email eye@somethingleet.com.

(Hack only tested on vb2.2.6, but should work on all other 2.2.* versions)

NOTE: This hack assumes the mirc user (yourself or someone else) has full access to your ftp server via ftp. I'm not held responsible if you accidentally give this hack to someone using mirc (which in turn you would have to give the mirc user your ftp login info).

Enjoy

any advice about this half op thing ?

problem with script...

in the new versions of mirc, you can multi server connect, instead of opening multiple mIRC's to be on different servers...well i use this option...

when on 2 or more servers, but in the channel I use the script for, it records the data as 0 being no1 in the channel...

What would need to be added to the script or whatever, to make it look on 1 server and in that 1 channel? IN a multi load situation.

[supreemball]

ok by popular demand, i'll add the commas (without the trailing one on the last nick) in the next release, as well as the halfop support, and will probably even add 'most chat users' as well (and i can guarantee that the most chat users will work better than vb's).

Awesome, sounds keen supreemball

Yes, multiserver works like this: The first server you connect to, has the id '1', the second server has the id '2', etc.
The identifier to get the connection ID of the current active server is $cid. So you might use if ($cid == 1) { blah | blah }.

PS: The above is for people with version 6.* of mIRC.

I'm having the same problem---can't login because my ftp login messages are multiple lines and make a login error. Unfortunately I can't adjust ftp server messasges. How can I fix the problem, anyone?

about halfop, i added a line like this:

    elseif ($nick(#channel,%x) ishop #channel) {
    write -a nicks.php <b> % $+ $nick(#channel,%x) $+ </b> $+  }

it works for me.

thank you, that works great

I have the same problem with the upload not working properly, after playing around with the ftp.mrc file I got it to work (might not be the most efficient way, but it works). Still throws some errors at the end after the file is uploaded but it gets nicks.php from point A to point B and thats all that really matters to me. Can't guarantee it will work, but it worked for me

-- Open ftp.mrc and find:

on *:SOCKREAD:FTPsock*:{

-- Right after that add:

:retry

-- Find (also in ftp.mrc):

if ($1 != 220) {
ftp.error $sockname $2-
return
}

-- Replace it with:

if ($1 != 220) {
goto retry
}

-- Find (also in ftp.mrc):

if ($1 != 331) {
ftp.error $sockname $2-
return
}

-- Replace it with:

if ($1 != 331) {
goto retry
}

-- Find (also in ftp.mrc):

if ($1 != 230) {
ftp.error $sockname $2-
return
}

-- Replace it with:

if ($1 != 230) {
goto retry
}
