Improved the code in various spots.
Fixed sloppy coding issues that remained from the original version of the hack.

Start of php 5 compatibility fixes
Query errors
ajax cosmetics issue (should be fixed now but if not please let me know)
quite a few minor random things.

Whats new in 2.2.3?

Fixed a few bugs (didnt fix the php 5.1 issues yet till i have time to make sure they dont have an undesired effect)
Added code to make bot show up online.
Made bot show up as last poster correctly.
Fixed table prefix issue

Whats new in 2.2.2?

To Upgrade from 2.2.4:

Upload all files import the new product.

To upgrade from 2.2.3:

Reupload src folder from the alice dir, install the product file, and upload ewt_talkerbot.php.

To upgrade from 2.2.2:

Reupload the src folder from the alice dir and also re upload the ewt_talkerbot.php file. No changes were made to the product file.

To upgrade from 2.2.1:

Overwrite the current product
Overwrite ewt_talkerbot.php


To Upgrade From 2.2.0:

Overwrite the current product. Upload ewt_talkerbot.php


To Upgrade From A Previous Version:

Just follow the install steps in the files becuase yea there was no prior version for vb3.6 so you should have no file edits to redo.

This version is much cleaner overall then all the previous version. I have removed a good deal of the code in the core alice bot that used to cuase errors. I have moved all the control settings into the admincp. Plus many other things including a much cleaner ewt_talkerbot.php file then the original _talkerbot.php file.


About v3

Yes version 3 is being planned out yet again. I had it finished at one point only to lose it when my computer was stolen a while back. So now im planning even more stuff for version 3. I will post information about v3 later.


AIML File:

I need aiml files. If you know where to get them or have a bunch you can send me please contact me via pm on here so I can get the files. (Needing more for the base package and some to start playing with the aiml sharing features of v3 )

It's missing the "S" in values

INSERT INTO session (userid,lastactivity,host) VALUES ('5431',1160595332,'127.0.0.1'); 


Didnt work for me, in addition I get this :

Unable to add cookies, header already sent.

This change is in the actual ewt.talkerbot.php itself..........If you open the file in your computer, then locate the actual ewt.talkerbot.php...

Right click on the php, and just under where it say open, click on open with, find your wordpad then scroll down to the bottom of the php file and look for: $ip = "127.0.0.1";
$vbulletin->db->query_write("INSERT INTO ".TABLE_PREFIX."session (userid,lastactivity,host) VALUES ('".$vbulletin->options['ewt_talkerbot_botuid']."',".TIMENOW.",'$ip')");

There are 2 call's for this that you need to change inside the php.....

Or just use the one below........

[Nandakal]

[hotwheels]

Tim I think this is an excellent hack.. but I have a question??

Edit to meet your folder setup and it will auto grab your database information for you.

I'm not sure if I'm being overcautious, but if this thing learns from your database and your database contains everything that is ever typed into your forums, couldn't someone possible pull information out of this bot that you don't want out?

[eXtremeTim]

You just told them to look for VALUES which is fixed.
