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.

What information needs to go in this line:

"This name the scrippt will use on IRC-Server" is it the URL to your channel? or something else?

Also nothing displays on ForumHome and yes I've set it to "active" under the vB options.

And also has anyone integrated this as a module into vbAdvanced?

updated version ist online

some bugs fixed

password protected channels are now accepted, please give the channels in this form
"#channel password"

on the forum home you will find only the channel name

else you must add "$irc_channels" to the place where you want to have it (FORUMHOME)

in the Server Manager you must give the IP or hostname of your irc-server
at channel manager you must give the channel name ( #example )

thanks, installed
not sure why but its not counting ops

[EasyTarget]

/me installs
thanks for the hack.
seems to be counting ops for me. I was wondering on how to keep the bot in the room instead of joining/dropping, and if the query can happen everytime the forumhome is loaded.

I need the change the text too because for me its all the same color. (chan info, topic and users)

[leonsio]

the way to lets the bot in the channel, is to run the cript as daemon under linux
you can make this only if you have shell account

php is not the right script-language to make daemons which runs permamently ( but it is posible ), whe script needs more memory as eggdrop, so you should install eggdrop

I keep getting a not authorized to connect to the server and I entered in /notice FB651338 nospoof like it said but no help.

shell access to the webserver or the irc server? I can use the shell on the website but I don't have access to that for the irc server.

[leonsio]

you must have shell access on your webserver

I was mistaken before when I said it was not counting ops. What it seems to be doing is missing one person. When I first tested it, it was only me and an op. Right now there are 4 people in the channel and it counts 3 plus the scripts connection but not the 4th person.

Any idea what is causing this?

[leonsio]

is the 4th person the script self?
