TS2Live - TeamSpeak 2.x Online Status

This is the vb3.5-version of the TeamSpeak Online Hack. The version for vB3.0.x you can find here.


What does this hack do?
It shows you the currently Users on FORUMHOME, just under the Who Is Online Block. As this Script queries the Server every time a user enters the Forumhome, it is not recommended to apply it on sites with high traffic. Use instead of my hack the hack "Show who is online in Teamspeak on forumhome", it works with cronjobs.
This Hack works on vBulletin on Windows (tested) and *nix (untested). It can query *nix and Windows-based TeamSpeak Servers.


Contains: 7 AdminCP settings, 11 phrases, 1 additional template, optional icon.
Installtime: <1 minutes
Difficulty: easy (1 product and 1 icon uploads)


The icon is optional. If you don't want to upload the icon, you can change it in the AdminCP to a different name.

Demo: http://www.e2160.com (scroll down)

Please click INSTALL!

Update for 2.0:
- No more file modifications needed, you can configure it through the AdminCP

How to Update?
- Import product, overwrite existing
- Revert the template named "forumhome_tslive"
- Check if the phrases are up to date (espacially phrase "ts_active_users")

Is it possible to have multiple TS Servers configured with this plugin so that each configured servers shows at the bottom of your forum?

Many thanks - works like a dream

Maybe this can help other users. It is only a small addition to add the user nickname to the link to the ts-server. So now the user will have the same name in the channel he will be logged in using the ts2live link. Before this i always got the name "Guest1" f.e.

After this the URL will look like this:

teamspeak://11.111.111.111:8767/?channel=channelname?password=passwordforchannel?n ickname=usernameinvb

Just add the variable

?nickname=$bbuserinfo[username]

in template "forumhome_tslive" to the link to the TS-Server. The line is near the bottom.

href="teamspeak://$vboptions[ts2live_server_address]:$vboptions[ts2live_server_port]/?channel=$vboptions[ts2live_join_channel]?password=$vboptions[ts2live_join_password]?nickname=$bbuserinfo[username]

It seems that you will have problems if the users have special characters in their names (f.e. german characters: J?rg in VB will be changed to Jörg in TS-Server) but i don?t know to prevent this but Jörg is better than Guest1. If anyone has a hint. Tell me.

Thanks

Hi,

First I've installed this on a 3.6.8 board, and it's working like a charm!

I did have to remove the alt="" at line 22 to make sure links will work in <phrase name="ts_active_users"><![CDATA[ at line 155

Line 22:

<td class="alt2"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/$vboptions[ts2live_icon]" alt="" border="0" /></td>

Line 155:

			<phrase name="ts_active_users"><![CDATA[People on Teamspeak: {1}&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Both <a href="profile.php?do=editusergroups">members</a> and guests may use <a href="showthread.php?t=3279">DIE16 TS</a>]]></phrase>

Now I've got 2 questions, and hoping it's ok to ask, being my first time here at these forums.

Would it be possible to remove the get_player_flags for everyone, and make all registered (R) bold?

Would it be possible to stop the linking from a person on teamspeak to the channel (cause I've already informed people at line 155, like mentioned above)

I really hope you can assist me with this.

All the best,
Cor a.k.a. Taragon

Mine says offline too and I contacted the provider we get our TS from. They said both 8798 and 51234 are not blocked. Anyone have ideas?

If I click on the "Server is currently offline" link, I can join the server with no problems. It just won't show who's on.

[Stryker412]

Just wondering could it not be working because I don't have a Server WebPost PostUrl & Server WebPost LinkUrl setup? Just curious because I have tsviewer running on my front page and that works fine and everyone on TS shows up. However, for some reason this script does not.

[Stryker412]

Do we have to install any of the 1.x version first or can we just install this 2.0?
