1944intel.com

[lazlazlaz1]

After a few weeks of work I am now able to present www.1944intel.com, if something happens relating to 1944 D-Day then it will be posted on this site. The aim is for it to become one of the Planet ring of sites (e.g. www.planetcallofduty.com). I will be adding content in the next few days, and then forevermore.
If you feel you are highly active and interested in 1944 D-Day (if you are on this board i am assuming you are), and you have basic knowledge of html, then if you want to be a moderator on the site then please email me (as my pm box is too small), my address is lazlazlaz1@hotmail.com. I will only be accepting a small number of people (exact number yet to be decided) so dont delay.
Your job initially will entail uploading news/media, but I have plans to add a forum to the site so you will also be required to moderate the forums once they are completed.
Please also note, the job will not start straight away as there are still things to be done (i.e. admin tools), but it will do shortly.

edit: moderating will also involve checking user comments on articles and files for anything against the rules. there will also be the ability for other people to report a comment to a moderator

[Gien]

Sent you an email

[Blame Canada]

Great initiative. Really hope this site is gonna be something :)


I know it's my own fault, but the members list for 1941: Crete should be updated as we have one more member now (The Wookiee who is a modeler) and since I forgot to add Josh_HLB as a mapper.

[lazlazlaz1]

please be aware that for some unknown reason files are not updating when I change them on the website. So certain links do not work. Working files are also reverting back to old broken files. I have contacted my host, so hopefully this problem should be fixed soon.

[[FFTF]Eurofighter]

so intel released a new processor? cool :D

lol jk. I can be a moderator if you want :) ill send you a mail.

[lazlazlaz1]

Ok, seeing as I am getting a lot of reports of the website messing up and looking odd, could everyone take a print screen of the homepage of the website and post it in here. Thank you a lot.

Only problem I see in design, it the Banner is not centered over the body. (Viewing in Mozilla at 1280x1024)

Love the featured pics ;)

hehe.


yeah the banner has been noted by others not to be centered. I shall look at that.

[DaveP]

I thought 1944 Daily already did this. And did it well :x

[lazlazlaz1]

1944Daily is more of a news site, i will store all the files and images etc in gallerys. plus anyway, have you seen how many spore fan sites there are, and its coming out after 1944 (in case you dont know its in the region of 15).

[Gien]

Btw i like the template used

[The Wookiee]

The site looks promising! (Good thing you added me, *growl*)

[DarkCanuck]

it good to start early with the site. more 1944 sites will pop up in time but yours will already but in full motion. people will look there before the others.

[Gien]

Yep glad you accepted me for the team will be glad to help in anyway possible sites are kindve a hobby thing for me i love setting them up and stuff ;) And your site looks to be a good project and very promising for the 1944 community

[lazlazlaz1]

cheers guys.
one of the reasons images werent working is because some of the files where pointing to images on my computer, not on the host :o. so i saw them and no one else did...:rolleyes:

[The Wookiee]

Classic mistake :D

[Gien]

lol same thing happened with font on one of my sites i accidentially used a custom font so whenever someone else visited the site all the text was jumbled

[lazlazlaz1]

hehe yeah, ive done it so often.

[Schrem [506th PIR]]

I already made thoughts about the missing pics ....

edit: quick question...is the registerthing working now?

[Gien]

dont think so

[Neo]

All of the images are .png's. Maybe making them .jpg's will help the site to load quicker?

[lazlazlaz1]

yeah neo, i think i will do that, i made the banner a jpg before.

the registering sorta works. it just doesnt record your country or dob for some reason. it just needs a bit of editing.
however you cannot login yet, it has trouble finding the username.

[Gien]

Hrmmm i might be able to help with that =/

[lazlazlaz1]

Well registration and email validation now works. Just to do the login bit.

edit: login working

Very true, good luck man. I won't comment on the pages because you're still working on it, but in the files section you could use the Game box design that won the design competition as a placeholder (except maybe have them take off the RE logo).

[lazlazlaz1]

Cheers.
Have you got a link to that competition, because I can't see it anywhere, and the logo design comp is still going.

No, but I have the pics, can't remember who made them:

[lazlazlaz1]

thats some great box art. but like you said, can't really have the RE logo in there anymore, so if the author of those images reads this can they pm me. cheers

[lazlazlaz1]

you can now participate in polls once you have registered :)

[Gien]

Yo when you need me just msg my email or pm me on msn.

[RonanHayes]

Sharp;44015']No, but I have the pics, can't remember who made them:

Omni Man from maxforums made them.

[lazlazlaz1]

thanks Ronan, did a google search for maxforums and www.maxforums.org for 3dsmax (i assume this is the one you are referring to) is down and/or gone. but thanks for the info anyway.

[Steveak44]

Looks great so far. Can't wait to dig into it more later. Never enough 1944 sites!

[lazlazlaz1]

Ok, is anyone viewing this in Internet Explorer, as I just had a gander at it in that (i usually use firefox) and the right hand side seemed all screwed up. What do you see?

[OliverMarshall]

works fine for me :)

[Chukada]

Whoa man, thats a nice site; a bit early but great. ;)
I want to be a moderator but to be fair; you don't know me. :)

[DarkCanuck]

its looking nice, keep up the good work

[lazlazlaz1]

thanks guys :)

chukada, send me an email to support@1944intel.com about any experience you have with websites, html, moderating or similar, it doesnt matter too much I dont know you. I have accepted 3 others I dont really know as its all trial running atm.

btw guys, the UserCP is fully up and you can now send each other private messages, oh the joy ;). Unfortunately I dont know how to do WYSIWYG editors, since they are javascript as far as i know, so you have to use HTML tags to modify the text in pm's and the like.

I am now working on the moderator tools, then the forum.

[Gien]

Aiite sweet like i said msg me if you need some help as im almost always available and feel kinda useless doing nothing ;)

[lazlazlaz1]

errr...oops. I just emptied the users table...i was trying to empty the private message table and missed to put it simply...so the 4 that had registered will have to re-register :o sorry

[Gien]

Re registering gives me this error

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ECHO, expecting ',' or ';' in /home/intel/public_html/register.php on line 154

[lazlazlaz1]

fixed

[Chukada]

Done, hope you accept me. :)

[Gien]

Anyone know how to do portal sites as in link the site and forums together been trying on a test site and no dice :(

[RonanHayes]

Your using Mambo right? There are plenty of bridges out there that allow you to bridge your Forums. Just pick the best supported forums, it usually requires very little change.

[Gien]

Not quite sure what hes using but uh ill see what we can piece together.

[Gien]

Did some userbars (Took my a while to find the 1944 logos and stuff lol) If anyone has a suggestion please feel free to criticize(first time i tried one)

I think they're pretty decent? Feedback?

[OliverMarshall]

nice!:)

[Gien]

Thank you kindve plain I suppose now that i look at'em

[lazlazlaz1]

nice one gien

about mambo, I looked at their website and it appears to be an all inclusive package, which does not suit me. Looking at invisionfree they state that one of their features is "forum portal" or something to that effect. I need to look into it more but I will just stick with these as they are.

edit: this doesnt quite appear to be what i thought it was. they have a 'portal' but it is just a bulletin board and usercp thing built into the forums.

edit again: ah, installing a forum on the host allows me to access the databases so it could work that way

[lazlazlaz1]

sorry for not posting in such a long time, and not updating the website. i have had trouble moving to uni and connecting my pc to the internet. i will try to get it all sorted asap so i can carry on working on it. but i cant say how long it will take.
