Support
[hr]value[/hr]I use my released mods daily, if I find an issue with them or add features for myself I will release updates. If there are significant bugs or simple feature requests I will do my best to release fixes. Some of my mods rely on fetching data from 3rd party websites, due to the unreliable results, my mods will require users to troubleshoot for themselves if they find the addon is not working for them specifically. I am offering my personal mods that work ok for me for you to use, I am sorry I do not have time to troubleshoot many user specific issues. Thank you for your understanding.

Support
[hr]-[/hr]
I will offer limited setup/installation support this script. While I do use the Remote Server option personally, I will not support this feature, you should have advanced knowledge of your server setup and troubleshoot this yourself. If you have purchased TeamSpeak hosting from a voice comm service provider, it is highly unlikely they will grant you database access. For best results and performance, have your TeamSpeak server use your vBulletin database as it's database.

1. Setup TeamSpeak to use mySQL
[hr]-[/hr]By default TeamSpeak uses a file system called SQLite. To make it use a mySQL database edit the server.ini and add:

[DBEXPRESS]
sqldir=mysql_sql/
Drivername=mysql
Database=database_name
Hostname=localhost
User_name=database_username
Password=database_password
GetDriverFunc=getSQLDriverMYSQL
VendorLib=/usr/lib/libmysqlclient_r.so.10.0.0
LibraryName=./libsqlmy.so
Active=1

When you start the server it will create all the necessary tables:

• ts2_bans
• ts2_channels
• ts2_channel_privileges
• ts2_clients
• ts2_servers
• ts2_server_privileges

Make sure these tables exist and that your TeamSpeak server is actively using your mySQL database properly before even downloading the gTeamSpeak modification.

For more information about setting TeamSpeak up to use a mySQL database visit http://www.teamspeak.com.

2. gTeamSpeak Installation
[hr]-[/hr]

1. Make sure that your TeamSpeak server is setup to use a mySQL database prior to installing this product. For best results prevent users and admins ability to register with the server via client. Also password the server to something gibberish as you will not be supplying the password to anyone. Also disable the ability for SA to grant SA for security.
2. Upload all files prior to installing product.
3. Install the product.
4. Create a Single-Selection Menu User Profile Field.
   • /admincp/?loc=profilefield.php%3Fdo%3Dadd
   • Single-Selection Menu
   • Continue
   • Title: TeamSpeak Access
   • Description: Can register self with TeamSpeak server.
   • Options:
     • yes
     • no
   • Set Default: Yes, but No First Blank Option
   • Field Required: No
   • Field Editable by User: No
   • Private Field: Yes
   • Field Searchable on Members List: No
   • Show on Members List: No
   • Save
   • Look and see what the field name is for TeamSpeak Access, example field25.
5. Fill in the gTeamSpeak configuration options.
6. Install any plugins you wish to use from the /admincp/gtsplugin directory.
7. That is all, send people to the form to sign up.

Note: You need to add your user id to the config.php under superadministrators. I will attempt to remove the need to require this in a future version.

TeamSpeak Access Profile Field Usage
[hr]-[/hr]
This is used if you want to ban a user from TeamSpeak and do not want to ban them entirely from the forums or change their usergroup.

• Set this profile option to No to prevent a user from creating a TeamSpeak account.
• When a user is banned from the gTeamSpeak user management, this option is automatically set to No. If you wish to unban them, set this option to Yes and they will be able to create a TeamSpeak account again.

I just wanted to say that this plugin is causing a small lag issue on the front mainpage of the forums. Which delays the loading of the sites by a few seconds or less.

[Dekard]

I just wanted to let you know that I'm using this on a regular basis and its quite lovely. We're planning on migration to 4.0 when its released and I'd love to see this product make its way over to the new version. I hope you have time to work on it. Thanks!

[Gryphon]

It should work ok with 4.0. If it doesn't, I will probably only fix it if there are simple issues.

If it is very broken with 4.0 I will probably be focusing on developing for TeamSpeak 3 which will available soon, this mod will likely need to be redesigned from the ground up...if needed at all.

[Desiderius]

At the moment its not working.

I get this errors

Warning: fetch_template() calls should be replaced by the vB_Template class in [path]/includes/functions.php on line 3889

I sure hope its converted for TeamSpeak 3 and vBulletin 4 support

[alpha.cccp]

Yeah the new TS3 user management system is COMPLETELY different. Every client has a unique ID, which makes it impossible to create accounts for an individual user. This is kind of silly to me because...you used to be able to lock your server and make a user registration form ( which what this mod basically did ) now you can still lock the server, but users no longer have passwords associated with their accounts ( even though there is a client_password table in the database ) instead, the permissions to the server are associated with the unique ID issued by the client. This makes me wonder if a TS3 registration mod is even possible to make for vBulletin.

The new system uses server side created token that have to be manually used by the client. On the client side you click "Use Token" and use the token given to you by the server, it associates itself with your unique ID and you no longer need the server pass to get in...however, you still need to get into the server to use the token...so I'm slightly lost. You can no longer lock the server and create individual accounts, because you have to give the password out in order for users to even be able to register...

Software is great, but the new user/permissions system is super retarded. I want to see where this can do with vB.

[SirShaw]

you would think they would offer a legacy mode or something for teamspeak 3. I know on mine I have the permissions set pretty tight. I give kudos to them for reworking a lot of the issues that plagued teamspeak 2 but its still not perfect. maybe they will add something later for us running mods such as this at a later date. I know I would hate to have to completely rework this mod :-\

[Cybertims]

By default TeamSpeak uses a file system called SQLite. To make it use a mySQL database edit the server.ini and add:

What server.ini?

Cheers

You could have a field in vbulletin for a user to paste their unique ID from TS3. So a user takes their ID from the TS3 client, then goes to vbulletin site running the mod and pastes in the string: 'h2FKENkbE7MVtISAKLc8O5tmyUi=' into a profile field.

Then I'd imagine you could use the new serverquery stuff in TS3 to manipulate clients into whatever client groups/permission settings you want, via checking usergroups in vbulletin. As well as enforcing some sort of 'reserved' nickname system.
