What This Hack Does.

This hack add a userlike bot to your forums. You can set which forum he will post in and how often he will reply to poeples posts. He will try and build his replies off the text that they posted. This bot will learn overtime slowly from your users posts. I will also be seeing about porting over the teachbot soon.

Some New Features
acp controlled Rate Of Post
ability to post as bot and he will not reply
post count will not go up in forums where post counts are turned off
a few options to turn off and on a few things including the script itself.
Some other stuff i just cant remember

Fixed in 2.0.2:
Go advanced feature works for quick reply.
Bot will no longer reply when post is stopped becuase of an error. (aka floodlimit, to many images, ect)

Fixed in 2.0.1:
Fixed a few minor problems including using the wrong variable in the if statement for the random smilie check.
fixed the install.txt problem used a find code that was from one of my modifications sorry about that.

Upgrading From v2.0.1 Instructions:
These are in the v202 upgrade file

Upgrading From v2.0.0 Instructions:
To upgrade from v2.0 just make your changes to the new _talkerbot.php file and replace the old v2.0 one.


Upgrading From v1 Instructions:
Just use the install.txt and do the forum.php in the acp directory edits.
Add the new phrase and run the query.


Todo List:
Move all settings to acp settings page
fix the floodcheck problem of bot still replying when users post is not made.
Clean up the code more
Figure out more stuff todo.

I installed this however is there any word on if the TeachBot addon will be ported as well. My bot's name is Alpha-5 ... makes sence eh?

- AG.net

Edit:

I found an error ... I did everything the install file says and I get to the botloader.php part and I go to the url and I get this error

Loading startup.xml

Warning: fopen(//web//sites//extremechatforums.com//public_html//www//forum//alice//aiml/startup.xml): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/agnet/public_html/forums/alice/src/admin/botloaderfuncs.php on line 508
could not open XML input

Anyone have an idea?

[AngelGrove]

Odd, works perfect for me. http://www.matrixmania.com/showthread.php?t=11691

[Amavisca]

Can this bot speak another language ( like asian language ) or it only speak english ??

[Logikos]

I've only seen it speak english.

[krash123]

It all depends on the aiml sets you load into it, such as:
German
French
and
Italian

I'm fairly sure I have seen other sets out there, and if you look around you may find a set that suits your needs.

[94DROPTOPZ]

OK we have gotten this bot working fairly well on my forums, but it still say: I'm not feeling very well at the moment, try again later. But it does answer a question every so often. What do I have to do to get it to learn more??

[94DROPTOPZ]

Also does anybody know where I change his name? So that when people ask him his name he doesn't have to say:
"Sorry I don't feel well right now, please try again later"

[lange]

Thanks, I'll try it.

[peterska2]

Has anyone got any more advanced AIML files or know where I can get some? I've fed up with my bot asking me if I am Canadian and he also refuses to finish his sentances. We get a lot of

I'm glad you like talking about .

It is good that your name is .

And finally he likes to throw in a lot of <br> in his text. I get things like

Areyou candian?<br><br>
I like . <br><br>
Are you my botmaster? :censored:

obviously I have thesilie :censored: on my site.

I also need to make him know that he is called Tom and not Alice or programme E (I think he has dual personalities )
