Hey,
I would like to make a basic script that will do the next:
Once you do !search Firstname_Lastname it will return
www:example.com/usersearch&Firstname_Lastname/blabla=b

Basically, a link that include the Firstname_Lastname I've placed. So if for example I did: !search Mark_Tiven it will return:
www.example.com/usersearch&Mark_Tiven/blabla=b.

(If you didn't understand what I've tried to exaplain I'll try to explain again..)

Thank you in advance everyone!

Are you looking for a dynamic link that actually opens a search engine, enters your search and gives you the actual url or are you looking for something static in a message? Example of a static message:

Code:

on *:text:!search &:#: { 
var %search $2
msg # www.example.com/usersearch& $+ %search $+ /blabla=b
}

Thanks!! It works!
Another question

How can I restrict a script to a specific channel? If for example there are two on the same server and I want that only on one of them the commands will be available.

Thank you very very much!

Simply restrict it by adding the channel name at the top.

From what Nillen said

Code:

on *:text:!search &:#CHANNELNAME: { 
var %search $2
msg # www.example.com/usersearch& $+ %search $+ /blabla=b
}

Thanks. Another stupid, but seems to be last, question. Other clients can use my script and do that command but for some reason I can't. (I can't use my own script). Is there something I'm missing? Thank you, once again.

You can not trigger text events yourself. Text events are entirely remote based, primary use for bots. If you want to use it yourself while typing, you could either use

Code:

on 1:input:#:{ 
if ($1 == !search) && ($2) { 
var %search $2
msg # www.example.com/usersearch& $+ %search $+ /blabla=b
}
}

Or you could also make it into an alias etc.

Thank you very much, highly appreciated!

EDIT: Oy, now the !search doesn't work for me and I believe it doesn't work for anyone

Then you probably didn't include a bracket when you were copy-pasting or something. Try checking for brackets and if that doesn't give you an error message. Post your entire remote.ini file here and I'll check it for errors

nvm it works.
Now, if I want to make it even better. Is it easy to, instead of simply writing the link, open a link on your browser?
I mean, instead of writing (msg..) it will open it in your browser.

Thank you Nillen very much!

You can't make it open in other people's browsers but you can your own.

Change 'msg #' in the on input event to 'url -n'
