Description
This is the product page for the Ultimate vBulletin Ventrilo Status product made by Crimm. It is a combination of these two products with; along with tons of requests. Links [1] [2]

This is the 4.1 release for vBulletin 4.X. Unlike it?s younger siblings, this Ultimate Ventrilo status mod ? Doesn?t require a certain host or host configuration! That?s right! You can host it on any type of server! See the Settings Explained section.

This script mod will display the status of a ventrilo server on your vBulletin forumhome or vBadvanced page. It will show users connected, channels, etc. Includes some customization and there's more to come! If you would like to request a feature, please see the link above. Here's some screenshots of what it looks like working:




It has multiple options from hosting it yourself where a script runs on your webserver and displays the status. This option gives the most flexibility. The next few options allow you to use external sources to display the same information, but you loose the flexibility of customization. More info on the settings can be found in the link above.

Please leave the link back to http://crimm.me for a little exposure. Thank you. If you need help tweaking it to make it smaller, color it, etc please let me know.

Click Install if you like it

Sorry I guess I read it wrong.

PM me your site, please?

You made those changes in the style manager, right?

[Mastar]

I did! Did you get it?

[Crimm]

I sure did. I'll check it today/tomorrow and see what I can come up with.

Can't find or run ventrilo_status
Please check your permissions on ventrilo_status

path and permissions are correct, tried 777 also. using vbadvanced.

also when click the connect link vent gives the error no servername specified. connect link does not contain the password either.

should be; ventrilo://www.myserver.com:3784/servername=Name&serverpassword=Pass

mod makes url as so, ventrilo://www.myserver.com:3784

[Crimm]

Okay one thing at a time.

Can't find or run status:

1) Try doing a chmod +x on it
2) Contact your webhost, and tell them that you are wanting a script to run that will query another server. Tell them the original can be downloaded from ventrlo.com, and is included in the server package.

As for the link, let's make sure we can get this working first

@Jeowan:

Look in the plugin code. There maybe some spaces where there shouldn't be.

See what you quoted. See the last 2 lines of the plugin code? Remove the spaces in ultimate_ventrilo_status_widget

That fixed it from showing up, now I can see it, thanks!

I just copied and pasted the code directly from your site and it has the spaces in it there so I assumed they were needed: http://debugge.com/showwiki.php?titl...MBLOCK+Install



just need to figure out now why it says "Can't find or run ventrilo_status
Please check your permissions on ventrilo_status" it's on a linux server and permissions are set to 755

I'm sure i'm missing something somewhere

I guess it's the same issue as this one.

[Crimm]

The permissions should be 777

Check with your host if you can run it.
