A web link is basically a link that launches the user’s ventrilo client and connects them to your ventrilo server.

The guildomatic ventrilo modular uses a web link, however the modular dose not allow you to add your ventrilo server password to the web link or allow you to specify a default channel for users to join.

This guild will show you how to create your own web link.

Before we start here is what the link would look like on your site.

ventrilo://chi1.vent.guildomatic.com:0000/servername=MyServer

Or

Your Vent Server

Once you have created the web link it can be placed anywhere on your site.

Please keep in mind, if your ventrilo server uses a password to connect to the server and you place the link on your homepage then anyone will be able to connect to your ventrilo server.

First you will need to have the following information handy.

• Server name and port number
• Server password if any
• Default channel and password (only needed if you want users to automatically join a certain channel once they log into vent)

Your ventrilo link should be placed inside url tags so we will start with that step first.



Next we will add in the command that launches the ventrilo client.



Next we will add in the server name and port number.



A quick note on server names, your server name is the same as your hostname. If you purchased your ventrilo server from us you can click on the “Ventrilo Settings” link from the admin console to get your hostname, port and password.

Using my server as an example, the hostname for my server is chi1.vent.guildomatic.com and the port is 0000 so the link would look like this



Next we will add the name of your server. This is the name that will show up on the user’s server list in the ventrilo client.



The next steps will show you how to add your ventrilo server password to your web link as well as a default channel and default channel password if any.

If your ventrilo server doesn’t require a password or you do not want to set a default channel then you can skip the rest of this guide.

If the password of your vent server is “dog” then the link would look like this.



If the password of your ventrilo server is “cat” then the link would look like this.



Now if you want to set a default channel for user to join once they log into your ventrilo server first you need to have created the channel on ventrilo already.

So if the name of the default channel is “raids” then the link would look like this.



And if the default channel has a password and the password is “raidingisfun” then the link would look like this.



And if you want the web link to display a name and not the link it self then it would look like this.


And it would display on your site like this.
