This is applied as a fix in 1.0.7.
I will work on 1.0.7 today and hopefully get to release it by tonight.

Release Notes: All users are, by default, not allowed to use EzIRC. You'll have to go into every usergroup, and at the bottom, allow the group to access EzIRC.

Is this for 1.07 or 1.06 because i dont see if for 1.06 and wondering where i can find it

I'm intrested in the usernames appearing like this;

Brundlefly (Site)

Since none of my website users have the same name, there should be no duplication. Is this possible.

I do appreciate your work on this.

Thanks in advance.

Disregard my last, I figured it out.

1.0.7

Okay everyone, here's just a status on 1.0.7. It's been scrapped. I'm just recreating EzIRC cause the code has gotten a tad messy and could be rewritten.

I'll post a status update later next week.

I have a problem.

As I use this modification, I can't acess some pages with the configurations, but they are not also in the Configurations Page in the ACP.

My app returns an error when users with a "!", "." or something in the nickname enter. The error says the nickname is erroneous because it has illegal carachters. After a conversation with my IRC provider, we found the solution:

What you need to do is strip . and !'s from the nick, IRC cannot support usernames with .'s because thats used in server names, and it cant allow !, because thats used as the seperator between the nick and the host.

If using PHP, you can try the following code on the nick before it is passed to PJIRC.

This code assumes the users nick is stored in the variable "$nick", and replaces .! with underscores:

$nick = str_replace(array('!','.'), '_', $nick);

Could you help? Where am I supposed to insert this?

Thanks and congratulations for the excelent mod!

Thanks for the update.

Do you envision that the new EzIRC will work and look pretty much like the one you had on your site?

Will the new one have some accommodation for forum user names with embedded spaces? (Some sort of workaround that would replace spaces with something like underlines or hyphens might work. The space things seems like a daunting obstacle. I'm sort of guessing that working on that issue is what convinced you to scrap it and start over.)

Is there any chance of its working with 3.6.10 for those of us not quite ready to enter the 3.7 bugland?

Also, can we go ahead and install 1.0.6 in the mean time, just to get oriented to it?

can we have the option to use the smileys from vbulletin? so no need to upload another sets of smileys...
