I mean new plugins, not unapproved plugins.

UPDATE: The structure of the configuration has moved around a bit. When downloading the new archive, please make sure to fully overwrite all files. After that, edit the `config.php` file to configure the script.

The user can now choose to use MySQL as the database back-end instead of SQLite. If you're using SQLite and want to switch to MySQL (by editing the `config.php` file), make sure you run `install.php` again so the appropriate table is created.

Thanks for the heads-up, HSFighter! I was not aware the "New"-tag existed, but the script now searches for those plugins as well.

Can we use this on multiple servers and what version of PHP do we need?

[Doggie52]

You most likely need a PHP version that is above 5. You can use this on as many servers as you would like - all you need to do is extract one instance of the configuration file for each server (perhaps config2.php, config3.php, config4.php?) and configure it accordingly. The script, when run, looks only for config.php, so make sure to have the configuration file for the server you would like to update renamed to config.php.

Also, if you have a revision of the script below revision 10 - please update immediately to the latest revision. There was a bug in revision 9 which prevented MySQL users from manually entering a forum URL for a plugin.

so this is a version checker between your own plugins and the plugins listed on approved plugins page?

you have to have your own apache because php sockets are not enabled on most commercial webservers?

True, the script queries the forum page for the plugin and determines whether it is the latest version.

I've explicitly mentioned to NOT use the script on publicly available sites as this compromises the security of the server. If people do choose to do this anyway it is their own responsibility. I'm assuming you want to point something out to me here; indeed, commercial webservers don't usually allow PHP sockets but that shouldn't be a problem since people shouldn't be using this script on live servers ;) .

I believe it would be sad for this thread to die out, I still believe this tool is useful to server admins. Please, if you do have further feedback I'd be delighted to here this and respond to it!

Almost two years later, 150 downloads (haha) and no comments? I'd love to hear some input guys. What about the talks of a built-in plugin updater in SourceMod -- did they get anywhere?

[MyWarthog]

Tried the plugin, and got a greeting of errors. :/

It was picking up the Undefined Offsets every few plugins that it found.

Other than that, it does find the plugins, but it seems to have a hard time finding the URLs, and the version numbers are not found on some of them.

Example:

Be the Robot	newest version is older than yours' - an oversight might be necessary (1.3 > )	yes

MyWarthog -- I'm not sure why this error is happening. Can you please PM me with your PHP version and perhaps output from phpinfo()?

About your other error, I'm sure this is because the layout of the AlliedModders pages has changed. I'll need to look into fixing this, but it may take some time.

Can you also save (CTRL+S) the page of output the script gives you and send this to me, so that I can see what URLs it does and does not find?
