Ya, they sign in by their name in front of the message.... and we can deal with them later, but sometimes operators/masters are busy with their schedule and are not able to keep on eye on them everytime, so i was thinking if the script itself avoid them for posting same messages more than 1 time.

Hello Mutor,
Can the +search and +readby command be associated with MaxRead messages only, and not with the MaxMsg, please.
I mean, tht when a user types +search command or +readby command then they would work within the MaxRead messages only.

[speedX]

I see no benefit to doing that.
Especially with respect to the search.
So I won't do that.

??

M8 benefit is there,
Most of the users are not interested in old messages, they use +search and +readby command for new latest messages.
Those users who are interested in reading old messages can use +readdate command

[speedX]

Hello Mutor,
Could u plzz add a command like +read x-y ?
if a user types +read 1-100, thn he will get the first 100 messages......
And if he types only +read, he will get the MaxRead messages....

[Yahoo]

gr8 idea speedx i will also love to have such a command

[speedX]

Thx Mutor, but is it possible to change the range command to read.
If user types +read 1-100 he will get the first 100 messages and if he types +read only he will get the maxread messages..
Is it possible m8? coz I have seen a similar command like this in the script Tophubbers by Jiten

Without digging too far into the script, I'd say that making a "from" - "to" statement would introduce a complexity not needed in a script like this.
Though making a simple !read x (where x is the value from 0 to x) would make much more sense. (if x == nil then get all)

Would that option fit your needs?

Ok Snooze, even tht would be fine for me

Hello Mutor,
                In my Ptokax, i have made a new profile which comes after Reg. Please tell me how to allow that new profile to use all commands of this script.

Hello Mutor,
                In my Ptokax, i have made a new profile which comes after Reg. Please tell me how to allow that new profile to use all commands of this script.

Just edit these lines according to your profile numbers (if it's a new profile coming after Reg, it should be [4]=1 to allow that one where you write it)

-- Which profiles may read the board?
ReadProf = {[0]=1,[1]=1,[2]=1,[3]=1,[-1]=1},
-- Which profiles may write to the board?
WriteProf = {[0]=1,[1]=1,[2]=1,[3]=1,[-1]=1},
-- Which profiles may delete messages?
DelProf = {[0]=1,[1]=0,[2]=0},
-- Which profiles may read messages from specified user?
ReadByProf = {[0]=1,[1]=1,[2]=1,[3]=1,[-1]=0},
-- Which profiles may search messages for specified string?
SearchProf = {[0]=1,[1]=1,[2]=1,[3]=1,[-1]=0},
-- Which profiles receive command menu(s)?
CmdProf = {[0]=1,[1]=1,[2]=1,[3]=1,[-1]=1},

HI Mutor,
How can I make the +readdate command to work with a date format like this

12 June'07 - 20:38

[speedX]

nope...no time...only date

12 June'07

[speedX]

If it's too much trouble to actually use the numerical month

But m8, is it so much different from the existing format??

It shows all the messages when the second last digit of the year is put anything other than zero.

as that is post 12/31/2037 i dont think there is much we can do about it


besides - when posting a bug it would help if wrote more Info instead of letting ppl study your post 20 times to find out what you are talking about

Hello Mutor,
                As i posted earlier about spamming....... i would like if you add one more function by which any user wont be able to add same message more than one time.
I have seen many users adding same messages 2-3 times, when v try to ask ... why u added 2-3 times, they say by mistake it got added....... so it would be better if the script doesnt allow same message to be added again.
I am using "Message Board 1.08e   10/20/04 LUA 5 .0/5.1" script.
And i'll wait for the change
Thank You.

Hello Sir,
           Thanks for replying to my request soon Script is working fine...... but the problem is, even if one word matches with any text from "MessageBoard.txt" it gives the message.
Can you change the function so that, the script wont allow same line again and not just same word.
I hope you understand what i am trying to say Sir
Thank You.

[Creative]

Sir, i am confused  ???........... can you please show me, what change i should make in line 577??

[Snooze]

Change

if string.find(string.lower(txt),msg) then return i,v end

to

--if string.find(string.lower(txt),msg) then return i,v end

Hope it helps,

Snooze

[Creative]

Snooze....... i cant see any change in both codes.....  ???

[Creative]

Hello Mutor,
               i tried to comment on line

--if string.find(string.lower(txt),msg) then return i,v end

But i cant find any change. Can you please make the small change so that same messages will be blocked....
Thanks.

hi mutor,

wow this script has been growing like the gaint beanstalk and yet i would like to request more!

can the search command be added with a date to search on wards.
i.e +search games 30/01      --will search from the messages of current year from the date till today
or  +search games 30/05/07  --will search from the messages the given year  from the date till today

and the search without date will work as in the script now

also i tried to read 'range'  by command + read 100 - 175 and i got all the messages and also +read 50 gave nothing related to reading specified range, and i m now using
Message Board 1.08i   10/20/04 LUA 5 .0/5.1
plzz check if range command is working or was i wrong.

thanks,
achiever.

Dude the command works, but u r using it in wrong way...
The command is +read x y [There is no hyphen between the values x and y]

[achiever]

pleased u like the idea, hope mutor likes it too and doesnt feel it a waste.

i tried +read 220 235 but this time the command just didnt show, i mean it was not shown on main chat and even it did not show range of messages and also it did not show the whole list which i get with +read.

thanks,
achiever.
