Auto identify script doesn't work for restricted channels

Open vendion opened this issue 10 years ago • 4 comments

I brought this up the other day on IRC, but wasn't able to continue with the conversation due to network failure.

Currently CIRC with the auto_identify restricted channels are not joined because CIRC tries to join channels before NickServ has identified the users nick. This works fine for most channels, but for channels that have the +r mode set CIRC fails to join them. I know you asked something about if another script to catch the #(channel) :Cannot join channel (+r) - you need to be identified with services. errors and rekick the join process once the nick was identified, or if the auto_identify script should be updated to handle this. A secondary script would work as this may not affect more than a handful of users anyways, but I think the cleaner route may be to update the auto_identify script for it.

Agreed, this should be part of the auto_identify script.

Regarding "a handful of users": I know more than a handful of users who would find this extremely useful ;)

True, I just meant that I don't think everyone that uses circ also join restricted channels so it doesn't effect every user. On Jun 21, 2014 3:08 AM, "r4nt" [email protected] wrote:

For me, i have the issue. The channel in question is #python. Since i seem to occasionally lose authentication for some reason, I frequently see that I am not actively in the #python channel.
