Hi, Im using log parser for adding dkp to our site and I love the tool!
However, I have some issues. The tool keeps missing players!!!
I have loads of players whispering me and telling me they havent gotten any dkp for raids they have been in.
I use timebased dkp with different rewards for each instance(per hour dkp) we also use fixed price. I was using a different system, but I couldnt see how to implement that into log parser(I will ask about that later )
I just parse in the strings from Raidtracker (eqdkp modified) set the dkp rewards, fix up the loot and update.
What I am wondering about is if there is something I have set up wrong? Not registering all the players who participate on a raid is pretty much a crisis if I cant rely on the dkp being accurate :S

There are two things worth checking:
1. Are the member in question in you member list?
2. What does the logs say about those members? Did the log register them as being present?
If they are in the member list and in the log then it might be some obscure bug in which case I would need a log and the names of the members to trace it.

Yes they are in the member list.
The person called "Ninja" was amongst the ones who didnt get registered for this raid.

From what I can see Ninja joined at 20:13 (raid start) and then left at 20:41. If you're using the default values then the interval size is 30 minutes. So Ninja left a minute too early to be registered as present during the first interval (which requires being present at 20:13 and 20:43, but the default log grace period of one minute makes that 20:14 and 20:42).
There are a couple of ways to reduce the problem. You can decrease the interval size so that people are for example rewarded for every 10 minutes they participate instead of every 30 minutes. You can also increase the default log grace period to something like 300 so that a person leaving up to five minutes too early (and/or joining up to five minutes too late) will still be registered.

Ahhh. ok. Does this mean for ppl who disconnect aswell? Or is it people who are removed from raid?

That depends on the program that does the logging. I have never run CT RaidTracker, so I'm not sure, but I find it probable that CT RaidTracker treats any disconnects as if the person had left the raid.
