MOTD Mod

[HEairsoft]

I think it would be really cool if when new members join a certain channel, an automatic message or MOTD (Message of the Day) would appear in the text window. This would be great for admins when they want the rules to be displayed to everyone who joins.

Also, if your friends are going to be joining soon, but they aren't on the channel yet, you can post a message saying "Be on at 5pm, I'm just out for some food". That way they know where you are when they join.

This can be a feature that is edited in the 'Edit Channel' window.

Features: Be able to set who can see the message (guests, registered users, admins, or a specific user), set an expiration date and time, edit the color and size of the text, and obviously be able to set the message text.

you can create such a function by coding a php-script which is activated by a cron job. But some of your requested features are not possible. The server contains no option for text fomatting. The message is send through telnet.

ScP thinks about to release his ts2perl bot / mod code. so you can modify and extend it like you want.
