Sound notification upon entry of new user

[Hobbiest]

I posted this under Feaure request and I solved it by myself. http://www.phpfreechat.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=4754

I studied the codes and found out that it's simple to solve:

****First back up the files before chaging anything****

Open up commands/notice.class.php
find:

Code: Select all

$res = $ct->write($recipient, $nick, "notice", $msg);

change that to:

Code: Select all

$res = $ct->write($recipient, $nick, "send", $msg);

That's all.

You should hear sound when new use logs in.

Well, it could work if you don't mind to loose the "notice" command...

.. tried it and seemed a bit untidy!!!

People were complaining about the timeout notices etc, appearing beside their name, rather than a global grey notice below messages in chat.

Nice idea though!

All the best,

But there is not any notice in below message chat.

Great idea - To make it more obvious that a person was leaving, but still make noise, I changed this to "me" instead of "send".

I've been thinking about this one, but would probably do it as a file hack higher up the food chain. Like, in pfcclient.js look for "this.gui.notifyWindow();" and a handful of lines above it you'll see a fairly simple conditional to which you add 'or notify'.

Sorry about not having proper code quotes but I've been overhauling like crazy and don't know what in mine actually matches the real files

Then you get sound in addition to all the stuff that notify does, which means you'd also get a ding when someone quit or quit (timeout) ... which isn't what I'm after. I just want it when they enter a room.

Oh hey, it does work, and doesn't give the double name variation.

Old Code:

Code: Select all

 if (oldmsg == 0)
        if (cmd == 'send' || cmd == 'me')
        {
          // notify the hidden tab a message has been received
          // don't notify anything if this is old messages
          var tabid = recipientid;
          if (this.gui.getTabId() != tabid)
            this.gui.notifyTab(tabid);
          // notify the window (change the title)
          if (!this.detectactivity.isActive() && pfc_notify_window)
            this.gui.notifyWindow();
        }

New Code:

Code: Select all

      if (oldmsg == 0)
        if (cmd == 'send' || cmd == 'me' || cmd == 'notice')
        {
          // notify the hidden tab a message has been received
          // don't notify anything if this is old messages
          var tabid = recipientid;
          if (this.gui.getTabId() != tabid)
            this.gui.notifyTab(tabid);
          // notify the window (change the title)
          if (!this.detectactivity.isActive() && pfc_notify_window)
            this.gui.notifyWindow();
        }
