(-8-) Website features

  • Hey - turns out IRC is out and something a little more modern has taken it's place... A little thing called Discord!

    Join our community @ https://discord.gg/JuaSzXBZrk for a pick-up game, or just to rekindle with fellow community members.

The new site is underway, gimme feature requests :)

I'll add a list of what's already in/planned later so you don't go asking for stuff that's already there ;)

Off the top of my head, stuff you don't need to suggest...

- Subsites for each squad (which can be added/removed/configed by squad leaders), with own news, poll (and any other content)
- Squads now have their own map lists and can add/remove members to their squad.
- Poll histories, and timelimit.
- Registration for non members to post comments etc.
- Online tactics editor with printable version (like the one we have already but u can edit online).
- Tactics library, so there's not just one version, and u can pick one for a match.
- Possible integration with utassault.net so matches/match results don't have to be posted twice.
- torrent/ed2k catalogue for game files
- server status (map, players etc server is currently on)
- practices & friendlies will be part of the schedule options for a gametype rather than seperate gametypes of their own.
- shoutbox
- match stats (total wins, draws, losses per squad, performance/score difference over time)
- everything has categories already (news, poll, matches, squads...)
- integration with tactics viewer, either by patches, or UDP (auto update)
- integration with forums (listing latest topics etc, perhaps creating topics based on news)
- integration with irc (telling irc bot to set a topic based on site information or a custom bot with access to site data)

uh.. I'll add more later :)

wow a new webby!!

but, areu sure its finished soon? coz i know u, and doubt that :P

anyways, i'd like to keep the record zone, but maybe normal users like me and the other squad members can send records too.

and the quotes are always good for a laugh :)
 
clicky! try and invent a way so we can edit these tactics!

Another Suggestion:
Grab cb/utassault.net news onto our news webpage
Grab UTA Schedule onto our page somewhere so we dont have to enter the matches ourselves
Grab Match Results/Comments and add our own comments to them

Bet its really hard to do:P

EDIT: u already had the last 2 listed! SORRY

Yeh, it is a maybe though. I gotta convince them to do some proper XML feeds, or do it for them.

That'd be a lot better than parsing their pages (like i did with that directory browser thing u gave me)

Submitting schedule to both shouldnt be too hard tho.

I didn't say it was finished soon ;)

But the engine it's running on is 'ready' and I need to know what's going in the site before I can make it.
Also, whatever goes in the site will be available for other clans, so general suggestions for clan features are also welcome.
 
In case you need some working examle :D
PHP: 
<?
error_reporting(0);
$strona = implode('',file("http://www.utassault.net/clans/claninfo.php?clanid=13"));
if($strona != FALSE) {
  $tresc = stristr($strona, "</table></form>");
  $tresc = eregi_replace("</table>", "", $tresc);
  $tresc = eregi_replace("</body>", "", $tresc);
  $tresc = eregi_replace("</html>", "", $tresc);
  $tresc = eregi_replace("Score (Clan - Opponents)", "Score<br>Clan - Opponents", $tresc);
  $tresc = str_replace("<tr>", "<tr class='tabela_tresc' style='font-size:8pt'>", strip_tags($tresc, '<table><tr><td><a>'));
  $tresc = str_replace("href='../", "target='_blank' href='http://www.utassault.net/", $tresc);
  $tresc = str_replace("href='claninfo.php", "target='_blank' href='http://www.utassault.net/clans/claninfo.php", $tresc);
  $tresc = str_replace("target='_parent'", "", $tresc);
  $tresc = str_replace("<td width='15%'><a class='normal'  target='_blank' href='http://www.utassault.net/leagues/index.php?leagueid=1'>Standard Assault:</a></td>", "", $tresc);
  echo $tresc."</table>";
}
else {
echo "<div style=\"font-weight:bold; text-align:center; padding-top:110px\">We are sorry but due to some problems with www.utassault.net this page is UNAVAILABLE at this moment.</div>";
}
?>

Grabing data from other sites is not that hard :)
Adding comments ..... hmm i was thinking about this but there are allready comments so cba.

I was thinking more along the lines of actually grabbing the matches/comments and placing them into our own design, rather then linking to them, just doesnt feel right to me if its not in our own design :o i guess its down to personal taste and whether its worth the effort:)

News categories, Clan Rules, Downloads are already in. News archive would make sense, shoutbox is nice for spammers.

Member status.. not sure about that. Only if people actually use the site :P But then hopefully the new features will do that.
