Optional Profile Data - What do you want to see?

Post by **Vortagh** » Fri Feb 11, 2005 9:39 pm

*YOU* asked for it. :P

I suppose with "Station Cadets" you mean a module for the Commandant? Or for other "higher ups" as well?

Oh and what is Section report going to be? Just a "upload your report to the DB" thing? Because I will definitely release mine as email, pdf (uploaded to my domain), MB post and a copy in the Archives.

A) Yes, I asked before I decided I was going to do Station Cadets because there were some technical issues I was still trying to figure out, and because Station Cadets is slightly more important.

B) Station cadets will be for the Navy and Army DivComms and Personnel officers to station cadets. I don't think the Commandant will have access to it.

C) Section Reports will be used to allow Division Command members to upload their reports to the database for public viewing on the domain. For the Navy, Fel is working on the old NavyFC site FA Polanski created awhile back. It works, but Fel hasn't said we can use it yet

Regarding C:
Will it upload the reports directly into the Archive Database (where all the other reports are stored) or onto a different page on the ... damnit, I always want to say "nexus", but we don't have a nexus. :P

Oh, another idea - do you think it would be possible to add a link from the GE profile to our MB profiles?

A) It'll be a different page. Like the Nexus... but it won't be the Nexus. I know what you mean, though.

B) It would be possible to allow people to make the link themselves, but as of now there is nothing in the database that could be used to link a MB profile with an ER profile. This is more of a question for FA Polanski, I think.

Hmm, I think there is a hack fro PHPBB that lets you add links to your profile.
I will check that out.

Okay. Post back when/if you see something.

What's the status of this?

Post by **Vortagh** » Sat Feb 19, 2005 11:12 pm

Same it was before? Near the end of my "to do list"? :P

It *was* near the bottom of my to-do list. That was before I took care of FPR Review, Combat Chamber Admin, the high scores for profiles, and at least 1-2 other scripts. However, I have decided the masses deserve to have the fun in Admin I do (*grins*), so after I fix up Cert Management a bit, then I'll get to work on this. I just created the db table, in fact, so it's on its way.

I could swear that you made a post entitled "Optional Stuff in your Profiles now available" but I cannot find it. Most likely I am just blind.
However:
If you check my profile, you'll see that there is a slight error, most likely just a missing <br> tag in the "character profile" tab:

here

After the profile link and the starfighter name.

Also, there's no reference to the "optional contact information" that I entered. Where is that shown?

The actual Bio doesn't show up, either.

A) Never made a post, because I am still working with Fel and Pol to get it styled up right.

B) You don't have a uniform pic uploaded, which is why that occured. Problem will be solved in 5 minutes.

C) Optional Contact Data will be going in shortly...

D) The full bio is now a link to the archives. The 4 people who had that information entered into the db had the entries updated accordingly by myself last night. Everyone else will see an imput box to enter the URL for their Archives page.

EDIT: C is taken care of, as is B.
