Channel Topic Feeder

Here is a project i've been working on for awhile.. I've had a topic feeder in the tg room for a long time. Recently I was asked to put it in another room and I added a feed for that rooms forum as well. I thought why not add to it.

It's now multi channel and will only show the feeds that room wants. If you have any suggestions for other feeds to add or you want the topic feeder in your room let me know.

just wondering are you going to release this m8 ?

Thanks

Holy crap they were playing an obscure Yes song on tribal fm! Wow ...

I think you already have this err0r, but if I were to make something like that I would make it subscription based.

Too bad you cant make it dynamic ... or can you make a dynamic rss reader that will read the latest topic, so the user just enters the url in and whatever info is needed.

dunno, depends on the output of the rss page i guess.

On the tg007 room script it let's you subscribe to forums like evo and chainz and will send a notice to users subscribed to it instead of sending it to the room.

As for releasing there really isn't much need.. I'm just using socks to read the rss feeds very easy to do. Mainly i just did it for ppl that wanted a reader in their room and didn't want to code it. I'll prolly end up changing it to a sockbot to join and send info.

cool features im sure lots of peeps will like it

This is my RSS Feeder also have Rumbaar's Evolution Scriptz, Techgear, Hawkee, And my site ...!!

Added mIRC's official community forum to the topic feed. unfortunately they did not have a rss page but thanks to a little regex I was able to pull the info i wanted from their latest posts search. More to be added soon.

Now shows:

ChainzScripts

EvolutionScripts

Hawkee

IRC-Junkie

mIRC Official Forum

Rumbaar

SoulFly

TechGear

Tribal FM

VB Forums

Moschino (pending rss feed repair)

anymore I should add?

Added a couple more and added color

Um when will these feeders be released

Ok instead of editing each seperate link why not fix it kinda like I do my protections, here is a example , when I click a protection on in my dialog I got this as the first event .set %arkmesg { $$?="Enter kick message:" } so people can set their own message so why not make the same thing where people can just edit the forums they wanna watch rather than being limited to ones pre added. Heres my full code so you can see what I got going on.

on *:dialog:ChanP:sclick:2: { if (False isin %AutoRev) { halt }
  if ($input(Are you sure you want to Enable Auto Revolve Kick?,y)) { .set %arkmesg { $$?="Enter kick message:" } | .enable #AutoRev | did -ra $dname 4 $group(#AutoRev) | %snd.enab | .echo $active 0,4Auto Revolve Kick 0,12Enabled }
}
on *:dialog:ChanP:sclick:3: { if (False isin %AutoRev) { halt }
  if ($input(Are you sure you want to Disable Auto Revolve Kick?,y)) { .unset %arkmesg | .disable #AutoRev | did -ra $dname 4 $group(#AutoRev) | %snd.dis | .echo $active 0,12Auto Revolve Kick 0,4Disabled }
}

It's not a public version, so why make it user friendly?

well ide like to see it released an if it costs to get it that's fine with me but that's just me

cause thier are some poeple that dont have any idea but would love stuff that's easy to get an just pay for instead of learning an some people cant learn it cause they cant process the information like others sadly

good money spinner if u ask me

i think you should do a poll Err0r

Haha It is a nice feature to have idling a room, but i do belive err0r has his reasons he does'nt release and i think thats why he has offered to idle your rooms with Topic_Feed and has asked What other sites you would like The feed from.

well tbh it's not worth releasing.. there are rss feeds already out there much better than mine.. mine is barebones..

All i do is open a socket to the rss page ( if available ). If it's not i sockread from whatever page that has the least amount of info but still has the info i need.

It's not really in a format that is releasable. all the edits are manual. Adding new feeds is all manual. it was easier for me to offer the service in a room than it is for me to fix it all up to be released.

How do you stop it from spamming every different forum in every room ur in, what if a room only wanted to see the topic feed of one site & not the other? Seems like if you added 8 to 10 different topic feeds to it that if you was setting in 5 rooms that all 5 rooms would be spammed with all 8 to 10 feeds you got added ?

They're set on individual prefrences. It's most likely reading off of a hash table or ini file to specify which feeds it wants the channel to see.

Only problem i have seen through the years is alot of people have like connections & add ons & etc thats really good that people can use but are never released. Once I got into coding I felt it was more rewarding to let people use & enjoy the things I made rather than keep them to myself but well everyones different. Its a shame this is for private use only.

I think it might be more rewarding for people to ask for your script vs. seeing someone else claim it as their own.
