Ventrilo Status Block for vBulletin and vBadvanced
![]() Developer Last Online: Feb 2016 ![]() ![]() ![]()
This mod has been replaced! http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=240495
Author: Crimm - Included because I have been finding my mods all over the internet taken via RSS :P Description: This will place a Ventrilo status block in a column of your vbadvanced installation. It uses some of the files found on Ventrilo.com's download section plus things I have learned to integrate them into vBulletin. I just thought I would share, because I couldn't find anything like this when I was looking 5 or 6 months ago. I have done searching all day today and haven't found anything similar. If someone has already released this mod, then please let me know via link. NOTE: Debug option may display server information. Hide the block to non-admins when debugging the block or else malicious individuals could get their hands on your server information. Difficulty: 5/10 - It's mainly normal installs, but it's difficult to debug this ventrilo status script. Requirements:
Safe mode being off is very important and will be the biggest problem people have with this script. To test and see if you pass this requirement follow these steps: 1. Create a file called info.php 2. Put this line inside it:
3. Upload it to your website. 4. Visit the new page by going to: http://yoursite.com/info.php or wherever you uploaded it. 5. Look for a line that says: "safe_mode" 6. If that says - On next to it... then contact your host, because you can't go any further. **I was going to try and implement a check, but can't seem to figure out how to do that.** Support: Here or my site: mmo-mods.com I spend the majority of my online time at my site so feel free to stop by and ask for help. FAQ's: Q: Yes I have seen this mod: http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showt...age=5&t=113432 Isn't this the same mod? A: No, it isn't like that. It adds a block using the code from ventrilo.com and modules from vbadvanced. - See screenshots. Q: I'm getting this: CVentriloStatus->Request() failed. PHP Unable to start external status process. Or this error: (Since friendly errors were turned on in version .2) "Can't find or run ventrilo_status" A: Please post and I will try to help, best bet is to visit my site where this information is being culminated as a community and where I spend most of my time. http://mmo-mods.com. Experience tells me it has to be one of these three things: 1. Permissions: Make sure to chmod your ventrilo_status to 755 if you are on linux. If you are on Windows, make sure that whatever is running your IIS process can execute ventrilo_status.exe 2. You are in PHP safe mode. This won't work in PHP Safe mode. 3. It's a path problem - I made everything relative. I have included some testing scripts, please use them as directed below. 4. Make sure that you have chosen the correct environment set in your settings. Q: I'm getting this error: "No response." A: Check your Server information. You can obtain this from your ventrilo host. Q: I'm getting this error: "Unknown Error." A: Copy/Paste the exact error and post it here with your domain so that I can take a look Q: Whats the best way to debug an issue? A: I included a debug option in the Ventrilo Status Block Options in vBulletin options, but note be very careful as it displays server information that could be useful to hackers. Make sure to hide the block from non-admins when you have this option checked. Installation:
Crimm notation on block: Please leave the notation back to me in the block to help spread the word. I left it small, so it wouldn't bother your site. Us freelancers have to get some fame somehow ![]() Mark as installed: Please mark as installed if you use this script, and I will assist you with a higher priority than everyone else. Revisions: Version 1: Beta Version 2: Fixed issue with Comments from ventrilo files showing in blocks Version 3: Attempt to fix error when installing product. Version 4: Fixed an error where some people get a message about global.php being redeclared. http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showp...4&postcount=28 Download Now Only licensed members can download files, Click Here for more information.

You have to have VBA for this to work.
It's a module for it. As for the error. I'll check it out shortly.

If anyone else gets this, please let me know. It's probably because you don't have VBA installed. Thanks for showing interest. I'll make another one that doesn't require vba.

I should let you know that I finished going through the installation and the module displayed but with a server offline message.
I just havent had time to troubleshoot the server offline problem to see if maybe the mod will work anyway. No members have liked this post.

Version 3 released.
I believe it was the code I was trying to use to check for Safe mode. It shouldn't give an error message anymore, but I was still unable to replicate ![]()
