Public Quotes System (current version: 1.32)

Like I said, the stats feature is in my todo list, but since it is not possible for the script to say whether "xxxx" is a nick or a common word, the most quoted nick idea will not be retained.

A command to replay more than one quote at a time seems gadget to me.
More, I took a particular care to make a decent flood control system and such a command would easily flood a channel.
Consequently, I will not retain that idea either.

Thank you anyway for giving ideas and for enjoying my scripts.

I understand your passion for flood control.

your flood control currently in place would not allow a flood. No one would be able to flood since you limit the amount of times you can request a command.

Call it gadget if you want, but you already built in the ability to enforce strict abuse policy of commands.

passion ?

I have three channels {a main public channel, an ops only channel, and a private bot testing channel for myself alone}.

I would like it so that a quote added from any of the three channels would go to ONE database file, and where whenever someone types !quote # it reads off that one database. I've played around a bit with it, putting * in the channels thing, or leaving it "", and even removing the channel name on the database file itself quotes.channelname, but with no luck. Is there any way to do this?

The script is amazing as is btw. A ton better than any other quotes script i've ever seen. Brilliant job.

The whole script is structured for separate quotes databases, so it won't be easy at all to change that, sorry.

Thank you for the compliments

I have added the following line to my eggdrop's .conf file: source scripts/public_quotes_system.tcl.

Made settings to the public_quotes_system.tcl file as indicated by the commented documentation. The directory named quotes.db is not created.

Is this an script/eggdrop version problem? Is anyone using this script currently? I would love some feedback. Looks like a great script. What am i doing wrong?

The database directory should be automatically created when you add the first quote (using !addquote command).
If not, ensure your eggdrop has writing authorization in eggdrop\ directory (using CHMOD command).

Ensure you set your chan(s) correctly in the config section of the script (chan names are CASE SENSITIVE !).

The script works with eggdrop/windrop v1.6.18 (understand also tcl 8.4) or greater (not tested on previous versions).

Killed by case sensitivity, yet again. Thanks.

I will look into that, just wait for the next version.

I'm having problems getting to ti only allow ops to add quotes, i've searched for the code that was posted earlier with no success and at the first of the config i tried changing just the -|- to n|o and no success.

any suggestions?

MenzAgitat · Post by **MenzAgitat** » Mon May 11, 2009 8:50 am

@ scooterh :

You must edit the following parameter :

Code: Select all

# autorisations pour la commande !addquote
variable addquoteauth "-|-"

like this :

Code: Select all

variable addquoteauth "n|o"

but don't be confused between chanserv access list, eggdrop access list and "oped" state (without access).

You must add your channel operators in the eggdrop access list for this parameter to work.

any way to have it search on a string?

like !quote whatever

and it will throw some quote that has whatever out?
