Okay, I noticed that recently, there was the addition of the little chat box at the top of the page. Its pretty cool, but it was kinda distracting so I hit the little minus sign on the right to move it out of the way. However, it still constantly refreshes the page every few seconds even when the chat is not open and its really getting annoying, especially when I have multiple tabs of omnimaga open. Is there a way to turn it off or some type of setting I can change?
-
Mhmm normally the entire page shouldn't be refreshed. A loading bar appears, but it only refreshes the conversation and userlist area, so there's no danger of losing post content or the like, or even slow downs. Unfortunately there are no way atm to make it stop refreshing. However, maybe Netham45 could eventually add AJAX to it, if someone helps him (since he doesn't know AJAX) and do it the same way as on Cemetech. It would no longer requires refreshing.
If he updates the box, though, this won't be until next week, since he got extremly busy with school and work since yesterday.
Sorry for the inconveniences this might cause, but normally page refreshing shouldn't cause any harm really, unless you really mean the entire forum page refreshes, in which case it means you might be using a crappy browser.

Fail.
Heh, I have been pretty busy. I'm just up off of mountain dew, slimjims, and tacobell right now. :P
My schedule for the last 2 days has been: School: 7:30-2:25(get up at 6:30 and leave by 7 to get there, get home at 2:40), work from 3:30-10:00(leave home at 3:00, and get home at 11:00)
So I haven't had much free time. D:
I have another glorious 8 1/2 hour day tomorrow. >.>

not his fault...

-
well how can I know he will update it a few minutes after I post this when he told me before it won't be until next week or hopefully weekend?
-
I have it all ajax based now, and I'm going to bed.
The only issue is is that backslashes '\' don't make it through unless you escape out of them ('\\Blah' would become '\Blah')
Oh, also, links are clickable now too.
And sorry 'bout all the spam in #omnimaga D:
-
Wow it worked. Thanks! And that was fast too :)
-
yay!
Only one issue, tho: when a forum image or a sig/avatar is down, the chat won't load until you hit Esc x.x
I'm happy a lot tho that it works ^^
-
Yea, the Javascript code that initiates the loop doesn't load until every element of the page is either loaded, canceled, or failed.
-
wwoops it looks like it's still broken :/
I can't send any line of txt in Opera :/ nothing happens.
-
The text stopped changing size, but now I can't say anything on IRC. :(
-
for some odd reasons, for Netham45 Opera browser it works, but not myself :/

Should be fixed. It came from the special chars in your names, primarily the space.
-
I see x.x,
So far so good, except the first time I opened the board this morning, sending something did nothing and the box never refreshed, even after refresh. Then a minute later I browsed the board more and it finally worked
I hope it won't break randomly x.x
-
Suggestion:
Could you make it where if we click a link that is on omnimaga it opens in the same tab, and if its another link (like youtube) it would open in a new tab? btw, great program :)
-
I would like that too. Just make it so if the link starts with www.omnimaga.org/index.php, open in same tab, else we end up with like 10 tabs open when clicking new posts x.x and the OmnomIRC box is on every page after all.
I personally need to make the Java chat | Today's log | | This year's logs | More... thing open in new tab, tho.
-
also, on my computer using opera, when I look at omnomIRC it shows the scrollbar partly up, so you miss the most recent message unless you scroll it down some. The scroll bar as in the one that controls what messages you see.
-
Oh it might be due to lines of text wrapping on two on lower resolutions. I think I'll make it show 10 lines at once maximum, even if it leaves a gap at the bottom from time to time. The first day this was up I had a #bottom anchor in it but it caused the page to always scroll up when clicking back or new post links, which got annoying. On mobile it even caused the board to scroll down on low res

Done.
-
Cool I just noticed this now thanks a lot ^^
Also nvm my last post the new version of OmnomIRC won't let me do that via forum Admin CP. It's now Netham45 side x.x
EDIT: Ok it was fixed
However a new bug appeared: when logs switches to a new day (at 2 AM of the board default time), we get a 500 Internal server error on the chat convo area until it reaches 15 lines for that day. I wonder if you could fix that?

You just found the issue of a bug I spent like an hour trying to fix D:
Edit: should be fixed. We'll see later.
-
Change your server clock now.
j/k I hope it works ^^
And awesome job on all this so far.
-
I also noticed that you couldn't type and display '\' unless there was more than one of them.
-
Yea, that's dealing with how PHP escapes the '\' char.
-
Basically we wouldn't be able to display directory paths? Oh well, we can always type them in the same way as URLs, with / instead of \. I never understood why they made directory paths use a slower to access char on the keyboard.
-
NETHAM! BAD NETHAM! D:
See attachment. This happened a minute or two ago D:
-
Yea, Sure, blame me. >:(
-
<.<

I always have that in mind. But I also remember that you don't need to escape / :P
Excellent job on OmnomIRC, even if I have it minimized all the time I wander the forum. Only when I have no more topics to see, I will use it.
-
Thanks altough most of the credits would go to Netham45 ^^ and everyone who begged for this before :P
-
Netham45, could you fix SpyBot45 again? It appears to have broken now x.x
-
I also noticed :( It makes me sad
-
I also noticed :( It makes me sad
me too...
Netham, does it how posts from the hidden forums, because I think it's best to keep these a secret. :)
-
Nah it doesn't. The bot would need to be able to login to the board, in its current form, and netham doesn't know how to deal with cookies in mIRC scripting. If the bot is ever tied to the database, this could be made possible, though, but then it would be hard to filter posts from the 4 staff forums
-
Ok so in addition to putting SpyBot45 back online, I think this migth need some fixing :P

-
It must be because i am missing, i tether everything together 8-)
-
LOL, OmnomnIRC is in the center of everything.
-
Is there any way to make Omnomirc display as all the separate people that use it?
-
I'm not sure about this. I think Netham45 could have some sort of database that includes all forum nicks that used OmnomIRC in the past 15 or 30 minutes and show in the online list in different color. Then once it has been a while since the person posted, it gets taken off the online list.
When someone joins the channel, the bot could /notice the person of the active OmnomIRC users.
EDIT: Another thing I think it would be nice if the topic title was colored to the forum color theme too, because links are all blue in OmnomIRC, meaning it's hard to tell where a post was made.
-
Well, random new bug popped up...
While I was on my laptop, using OmnomIRC like normal, it started randomly repeating earlier messages.
It wasn't just the last message but just random messages in general. It was happening even while on another tab or another program entirely.
Eventually, I just gave up and closed the tab and, while checking the logs on my main PC, it was still repeating things even after I wasn't on Omnimaga anymore.
Here's a section of the logs:
http://removedfromgame.com/omnomirc.txt
At [16:10:22] I closed the tab after saying that message and it continued. It may still be continuing.
Just thought I'd bring this up. =/
-
I've noticed this as well.
-
I did not have this issue before, but I think SirCmpwn did many times. I don't know what browser he used. It happened at his school.
In my case, once, every 2 seconds while typing, my messages would be automatcially posted and I had to restart Opera to fix it. It only happened once, though, and a while ago.
-
It would be nice Netham45 when you return from vacation if you could maybe fix this issue:
-
A tiny bug with OmnomIRC:
When someone has exactly 1337 or 100000 posts, OmnomIRC thinks they have 0 posts, because their post count show up as leet and geek instead of 1337 and 100000, respectively. In other words, they can't use OmnomIRC until they post again.
Maybe when this SMF easter egg is triggered, you could have OmnomIRC check if the post count is a string instead of a number, or something like that.
Not a huge bug, although that was strange, lol.
-
That's not a bug, that's a feature ;)
-
Please just make a new post!
EDIT: DAMN!
-
/me locks ScoutDavid postcount to 1337 and withdraws his OmnomIRC bug report. :P
-
[23:24:34 * DJ Omnimaga eats Tribal]
Some lines appears wierdly now. I wonder if it's due to year change?
Also it would be good to separate the 2010 logs from 2011, like the others.
-
I'm blaming the fact that the bot for OmnomIRC is now OmniBot45 and not Omnimaga, since the problem started then. (Right after Omnimaga froze, and then OmniBot45 joined the channel and flooded #omnimaga with the missing messages.)

I prefer OmnomIRC rather than OmniBot45, afterall, we're not bots :P

But the bot is a bot, after all. It forwards the messages.
-
<OmniBot45> isn't getting cut off right... Rename it back to OmnomIRC?
-
Yeah, I liked the old version where it had our names as links in omnomIRC.
-
Seems like the log parser doesN't work well when the bot name is different. When the clone disconnects it would be nice if OmnomIRC bot auto changed nick back to OmnomIRC.
Also I still wish the user online list made forum users clickable. The # besides each forum usernames is kinda misleading, especially that several Omni members frequents Cemetech.
-
Seems that Omnom is offline o.O Is he coming back soon?
-
It seems fine now, but Netham45 internet connection has really been crappy lately. If Omni ran on a dedicated server, I would just suggest to move OmnomIRC and the bots there. X.x

Bug:
In low resolution (1024x768, the minimum site resolution), the topic overlaps on the text right below.

kk, I'll get to that one next time I do an update on it.
-
Cool. Also it would be nice to split the 2010 logs from 2011.
There's also a glitch where everything switches to Times new roman with no color when there's 15 lines of text in a log on OmnomIRC.
-
As of now, it's down. What's going on? Is it being updated or something?
-
Idk, all I know is that Omnimaga doesn't feel the same without it.
lol: Right when I posted that, the irc went to "OmnomIRC is currently offline due to some technical difficulties, sorry for any inconvenience.
"
-
No, it doesn't :(
Hopefully it's back up soon, though. Hope it isn't anything major...
-
Netbot45 our log/chanserv bot has died atm when he is back up OmnomIRC will be as well till we get netham45 to fix this well were just in a waiting game sorry for the inconvenience
-

first reaction: lolwut :P
second reaction: ah ok hope it gets fixed soon
-
I hope he isn't away for an entire week or something in vacation. That stuff always happens while he's away without any internet access. Someone should probably post a news about OmnomIRC being down.
-
Yeah, for now you can use http://www.omnimaga.org/irc/ or an IRC client, but Omnom always felt like a part of Omnimaga, as Happybobjr said :(
-
Yeah true. Also that client is ancient, so it might not work for you.
Also to whoever edited the OmnomIRC message above, I hope you kept a backup of the other? O.O
-
OmnomIRC seems to be dying a lot today... Maybe it's the server. EFNET's been having a lot of problems recently.
-
Yeah I'm not sure why. At first I thought Efnet thought the bot flooded too much with OmnomIRC, but OmnomIRC text goes through another bot... weird...
Maybe a different Efnet server should be used for the bot?
-
And another thing: OmnomIRC's Users Online list always has a blank entry on top for some reason.
And a bump for a suggestion: changing the # to reflect whether the person's on IRC or Omnom.
-
I remember in the past it used to be a (http://www.omnimaga.org/Themes/omnimaga4/images/on.gif)...idk what happened to it
EDIT: merged posts
Random idea. Would it be possible to have omnom or a bot have a sort of +afk -afk mode, that just changes the name to something like _afk at the end?
So any user could do it, only to him/herself (except maybe an op could do it to anybody).
-
Why is it so hard to select text in omnom? Does it have to do with the refreshing or something?
-
yeah, it has like a 8 second refresh rate. ;)
-
Yeah it's due to refreshing. Unfortunately I doubt there's anything that can be done about that. It used to be much worse, though, as it used to refresh every 2 second.
-
If it's too hard to select text, use http://netham45.org/irc/EfNet/view.php?log=omnimaga¤t=true (http://netham45.org/irc/EfNet/view.php?log=omnimaga¤t=true).
-
Yeah that can work too. Or you just have to be very fast. :P
-
Also I'd really like to see this, I'm not sure how possible it would be tho :P

-
I don't think that would even be possible. That said maybe there could be something in the future, assuming Netham45 can tie OmnomIRC directly with the board database, so users who got OmnomIRC minimized woN't get shown in the online list. As for AFK mode otherwise it would be useless, since after 30 minutes you no longer show up in the list anyway, and for IRC users it's up to them to decide if they want to change their name or not when AFK.
-
Also, the lag stopped. Was it because of Omnom?

Changing the Omnimaga username? I don't think that's possible.
-
I'm having posting time out now. Not sure what the problem is.
-

There seems to be lag at random times during the day O.o I don't think it's Omnom. Something about the new server that Omni moved to.
-
As for now, OmnomIRC stops refreshing completely when sending text. I have to manually refresh the page every line, making OmnomIRC nearly unuseable.

It seems to work for me.
-
Maybe it's something Netham45 broke in some browsers. It started happening after he worked on OmnomIRC a few nights ago.

Its pretty cool, but it was kinda distracting so I hit the little minus sign on the right to move it out of the way.

Is there a way to turn it off or some type of setting I can change?
Netham45, could you fix this again? The userlist has brought that issue back up and it's kinda annoying (and when posting, scary, because it always looks like I accidentally hit the wrong button and am gonna lose my post). It might slow people computer down a lot if they got an old one too.
Otherwise if it's no longer possible to fix this, could you just reduce the user list refresh rate to 1 minute?
