So pretty much both me and all the admins in my server thought it would be better to create our own plugin for displaying the rules, since we could customize it to our likings.

But none of us have Source Pawn Experience (Derp).

I've gotten it so it will work when typing /rules !rules, but i was hoping to add the ability of a cvar so if the url changes i dnt have to edit the .sp and recompile then reupload, just have to edit a .cfg file with the updated url...

but i cant for the life of me find a way to read the String data on a ConVar....

Heres the current code (Theres nothing disclosing, as because of the default url in the ConVar is google )

Be warn, there are probley more errors then letters within this code (:

PHP Code:

#include <sourcemod>

new Handle:rulesurl

public OnPluginStart()
{
    RegConsoleCmd("rules", Command_Test)
    rulesurl = CreateConVar("sm_rulesurl", "http://google.com", "The location of a .txt file with your rules in it (:")
}
 
public Action:Command_Test(client, arg)
{
    
    new Handle:setup = CreateKeyValues("data");
    new Handle:cvar = GetConVarString(rulesurl)
    
    KvSetString(setup, "title", "UnknownAU Music");
    KvSetNum(setup, "type", MOTDPANEL_TYPE_URL);
    KvSetString(setup, "msg", cvar);
    
    ShowVGUIPanel(client, "info", setup, true);
    CloseHandle(setup);
    return Plugin_Handled;
    
}

Change new Handle:cvar = GetConVarString(rulesurl) to:

decl String:cvar[128];
GetConVarString(rulesurl, cvar, sizeof(cvar));

Also add KvSetNum(setup, "customsvr", 1); if you want a fullscreen window, and decide whether you want semicolons in your code or not since, as of yet, you've used them on some lines and omitted them elsewhere. (If you want to use them, have #pragma semicolon 1 at the very top, so the compiler kicks up a warning if you leave them out.)

Also, you might already know this, but you don't need to link to a text file, your URL could be a full-blown HTML file if you want. Looks much prettier!

Thanks for the huge help!, and derp i always do that while coding .php, then i get an error while trying to view the page xD
