IRC Manager ( without Eggdrop/Mirc )

This is the first release of my irc manager for VB 3.5.
You don't need eggdrop or mirc to run this script.

Multiple irc-servers & channels are supported

This script is based on "Eggdrop IRC Manager"
You can use your old config, you must only change every config and add server_id

Extract and upload all the files from the ROOT folder to your forum root. ( 1x admincp script, 1x admincp-xml, 1x cron script )

After upload, import product-ircmanager.xml.

This product will automatically add a vb-cronjob which runs every 15 min.

How does this script works?
It uses a socket connection to your irc server.
After a successful connection, the script joins your channel(s), collects information then leaves the channel(s).

This is a first version of the script. Later on, I plan to send some forum information to the channel, e.g. 10 last posts.

To troubleshoot what is going on, find this line in the cron file:

while(!feof($conn))

		// eine Zeile hollen
		$data=fgets($conn, 1024);

Add this line:

echo "$data<BR>";

Then run the cron task manually and it should output what is being seen.

yes it needs motd

because i let the bot you the server, after i see the end of the motd-code
so i know that connect was success and user is authentificated by the server

quick question while your online i am gonna search myself but in your script ya made the icon show announcement icon for the forum home but you made it to use one path. so when people have multible themes if they dont have a transparent icon or want to change it it will be harder where in the code is it located so i can change it

[leonsio]

in the forumhome_irconline temlate

search for

<td class="alt2"><img src="$channel[icon]" alt="$vbphrase[view_whos_online]" border="0" /></td>

an replace it with

<td class="alt2"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/$channel[icon]" alt="$vbphrase[view_whos_online]" border="0" /></td>

now the images are relative to the styledir

Is there a way to make the bot stay online when first login on and gather information continually? It's getting annoying when it joines and quits every hour. Thanks.

The script still is not counting the correct number of people actually in my irc channel

Same problems, bot won't ever join

What shouuld the cron job be called?

I have installed as per the instructions and the whos in IRC shows up, but it says that there are 0 people in the chat room and below that it says

Most users in the chat was 0 on 01-01-1970 at 10:00 AM.
Topic:

I think this is because the cron hasn't run, so I went into scheduled tasks to run it manually but can't see it listed.

In that case the product didn't install the cron job.

I have deleted it, re-installed and tried over writing it, but nothing is appearing.

I am running vB 3.5.2 and assistance would be appreciated.
