Today, I found a new plugin. If I understand it correctly, I can make certain chat phrases link to web pages. Example, if you type "/google" into chat, the chalkboard pops up with Google in the center. I won't be using for Google, but I will use it for the Hunting Game. /hunt (or similar) will send you to an html page with the kill log and scoreboard. /forum can send you to the forum, and other cool things.
What pages do you want linked, and what shortcut phrases?
Planned shortcuts:
/hunt, thehunt, /thehunt -- Not-yet-made Hunting Game Scoreboard and Game Log page
/forum, /boards -- Forum

i imagine that this would require me to re-enable web pages on chalkboards. (had them disabled because some servers had too much shit on them.)

Yeah, you're going to have to re-enable them, sorry.
Plugin now installed, /forum, /forums, and /boards now all link to the forum. I'm working with Sora on retooling the hunting game to make it a lot more automated, but for now /hunt and /thehunt link to page one of the hunting game thread.

So I've been testing it, and the webshortcuts plugin really sucks at real webpages with content. Over the next couple of days, I'll be creating several really simple web pages that it can open easily. Below are my ideas. Current commands: /help - a list of commands /motd - Server Splash Page /rules - Also the splash page Pages I don't recommend, but they currently "work": /forum - Server Forum /hunt - The Hunting Game thread /killcam - The Killcam Request Game thread /blog - The TF2 Blog Proposed list of commands: /help - a list of commands /motd - Splash page /rules - separate server rules page /admins - a list of the admins of the server. In the future, a feedback system. /donate - A donate page, with a link to the reserve slot stuff. /reserve - A place to purchase a reserve slot, and to see when yours expires. The webshortcut stuff allows for personalized links based on Steam IDs, so if I type /reserve, it will be a different page than if someone else types it. /hunt - a newer, simpler page for the hunt until Sora gets the new stuff working. /patchnotes - The Product Updates page. /blog - Either the blog as-is or the blog RSS page. Most of these will have multiple aliases, like /patch, /patchnotes, /update, etc. |
