Admin Panel Networks - Sorunome/OmnomIRC GitHub Wiki
This is where you edit the network settings.
To understand what you do here, let's talk about networks: OmnomIRC allows different networks. A network is, like, a forum network, or a IRC network. It can connect multiple things. You can add new networks, but you cannot remove them, like with the channels. Instead you just disable a network.
Ever network as the following settings:
- Enabled: if the network is enabled
- Normal: how the nick should appear in normal chat
- Userlist: how the nick should appear in the userlist
- IRC: the irc color code and nick prefix for this network
Normal and Userlist have the following replaces:
- NICK: the nick of the user chatting
- NICKENCODE: the nick of the user chatting, url encoded
Let's take a look at the different network types:
OmnomIRC Network
This is the network that's most focused on, as this is what defines OmnomIRC.
Here you have to set the checkLogin file, so the file on your forum which checks if you are logged in or not. This requires the http:// (or https)! You can also link an external CSS style sheet (theming). You can also control how much access guests shall have to your OmnomIRC.
Op groups is which linked forum groups are allowed to have full network-wide OP. As you can see in the example, it is simply set to true here. For SMF users it is the name of the primary group. Comparisons are done case-insensitive, with stripped HTML tags and trimmed!
CalcNet
You most likely will not need this, because who needs to be able to chat from a calculator?
All network-specific settings here are server and port.
IRC
This is where things get fun: let's connect to some IRC network!
Quite straight forward: Nick, Server, Port and if the bot should use SSL for the IRC connection.
Optionally you can set a NickServ password to identify with upon start, if you don't use this leave this field blank.
If you give the IRC bot OP status it'll automatically synchronize topic changes with IRC networks.
In the advanced settings you can set a separate TopicBot for that (increased security as that bot is stripped down so that it can do nothing but setting topics, thus nothing can go wrong if it has op). If you don't want to use this bot just leave Nick blank and the main bot will do all the topic setting.
