[EDK4] eve-kill DISQUS comments

[MrWhitei]

Whats this mod do?

Links eve-kill comments to your private kill-board and vice-versa

Shows comment count

What are the limitations?

Comments will only be available on kills that have been sync'd with eve-kill.net

There will be a wait before you can comment. This wait depends on how long until the kill is on eve-kill and the cron_feed script runs

How do I get it working?

Upload ek_disqus.zip to the [b]root of your killboard[/b]

Unzip files. A new cron file will be created that you need to access every [b]30mins[/b] (cron_ekdq_epic.php)- Thanks Karbowiak

Enable mod in the admin section

Enable mod in the settings page

If you want to keep your old comments available set the kill id ([i]Internal kill-id cutoff[/i]) to your most recent killmail

Follow the instructions on the settings page to edit template files. This will enable showing of the comment counts

The cron file is a modified version of the EPIC API fetcher, all credit for that goes to Karbowiak and eve-kill.net

UPDATES:
v1.1.1 - 27th July 2012
Fixed bug storing last fetched killID from EPIC API (Thanks Strucker)

v1.1 - 22nd July 2012
No longer need to edit core files from EDK
IDFeed support removed in favour of the eve-kill EPIC API
New cron file created and needs to be run every 30mins.

Nice one.

Seems to work just nice.

Folks can see a test of it running here

http://oddsodz.com/tmouw/killboard/?a=home just look for any killmail that has some comments. And you will see that they are "Sync'ed" with the same comments at Eve-kill and killmail.org

This means more glout/spam/tears can be spread about. I Like it a lot.

Thanks for taking the time to make it for me.

Maybe you can do just DISQUS comments mod, which can use standart admin funcions and can be connected by using <your-site>.disqus.com ?
Why need to sync with eve-kill.net if you can just have your own comment system on your own web-site?

Updated mod to work with the EPIC API.

Updated mod to work with the EPIC API.

you have changed the way the last kills are set, if you check the config table you will see the field is limited to 32 chars, but you added 4 chars so it never get's the appropriate lastkill (since it does not exist).
either use substr or remove the ekdq prefix.

Ahh derp.

Thanks for finding that one, wanted to keep it separate from the official Epic API fetcher so i didnt mess anything up there.
So i kept the prefix and went for substr instead.

OP updated.

Cheers
