Vanilla Rivals (Tournaments/Clans/Ladders)

Detective

AIBOT, i have this problem:
Notice: Undefined index: tournament_id in /home/ryuuko/public_html/comunidad/extensions/vanillarivals/rivals/classes/tournament.php on line 79 Notice: Undefined index: ladder_id in /home/ryuuko/public_html/comunidad/extensions/vanillarivals/rivals/classes/ladder.php on line 57

Strange, isn't it?

AIBOT

hmm you must have notices turned on in your php.ini? I get nothing. It is fixable though.

AIBOT, for the PMs thing, how about you use Jazzman's PM extension? I believe it still needs a little work, but improving it and integrating it with your extension would benefit the whole vanilla community a lot more

AIBOT

Alright Ill look into that, I dont see a way to contact him for permission so I wispered him a message, if he dont want it integrated then I wont :) Thanks for the link.

Or you could just resort to creating regular whispers to a predefined category...

MySchizoBuddy

let the extension work on its own. iron out all the kinks. then worry about integrating with other extensions. which almost always never happens. So AIBOT don't waste ur time with integrating. just do ur own stuff and finish it with features complete.

Detective

Maybe you could give a permission like "can post results" to a role. And that people could have their own way of getting results from the player (mp's, email, msn, etc).

AIBOT

Ok added the "Clan Messages" feature to replace PMs. Fixed $Board_config stuff. To upgrade: Download the ZIP from the first post in this discussion, replace the entire folder of vanillarivals in your extensions folder with the new folder, and run

"CREATE TABLE `VAN_rivalspms` (
`pm_id` int(1) NOT NULL auto_increment,
`pm_to` int(1) NOT NULL,
`pm_from` int(1) NOT NULL,
`pm_subject` text NOT NULL,
`pm_message` text NOT NULL,
`pm_date` text NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`pm_id`)
);
INSERT INTO `VAN_modules` (`module_id`, `module_name`, `module_status`, `module_dep`) VALUES (33, 'ccpmessages', 1, 'ccp');"

@Detective: I dont understand what you mean .

Thanks.

AIBOT

Ah I think I know why your getting that ... go disable/turn off the extension in the admin section, THEN run the install_rivals.php file, THEN turn the extension back on. See if that helps :) Thanks for testing :)

AIBOT

Okay, I got the styling done on the ACP. I tried to add my add-on to the add-ons page today but got "Some problems were encountered The file you have attempted to upload (vanillarivals.zip) is larger than the allowed size: 100kb" Any ideas on a workaround for that? The .zip is actually 123.5 KB

*puts up the MarkSignal™

Meanwhile, if the extension requires heavy CSS or theme styling you could probably make the style a or rivals package a dependency and optimize things in the process by cutting it across two different files. Just remember to include the proper documentation for both to get things running.

AIBOT

Nothing heavy no, I only have 1 CSS file with about 6 lines in it.

lech

yeah, then I don't think splitting things up will help much. In that case wait for mark

AIBOT

Alright, In the meantime: http://img503.imageshack.us/img503/4496/screenshot1lx4.png ... anything I can do about the tabs, my extension adds about 4 of them, is that too much?

Minisweeper

I guess that depends on user's preferences. You could offer the option to add your links as a panel block instead of as 4 seperate tabs if some people prefer it that way?

AIBOT

Yeah OK, I made it so it turns into a panel block. I also got a demo setup of this extension if you wish to play around with it: here. Login: demo/demo.

AIBOT,

Great effort. I'm a newbie at setting up tourney's but need to do one on a new forum. I've looked here and on phpBB for a quick tutorial on how to create and populate a tournament using Rivals but couldn't find anything. Does one exist anywhere?

What I'm trying to figure out is if I can setup a Ryder Cup golf format for a group of us who play once a year in a 4 day golf tourney (e.g. Team EURO vs. TEAM USA, 6-8 members on each team - each foursome represent a EURO/USA individual best ball, and Team best ball for a possible 3 points per foursome).

Thx. in advance,

AIBOT

You should be able to set it up fine. Click Rivals ACP click Add Tournament.

Tournament Name: The name of your tournament.
Tournament Password: Only set one if this is going to be a private tournament where you will invite the clans.
Brackets: Basicly, how many clans are going to play.
Required Members per Clan: How many members must a clan have in their roster in order to be able to play? Leave blank if none.
Tournament Type: Single or Double Elimination. See Wikipedia.org if you don't know what these are.
Tournament Info: General information about the tournament, when will it take place, etc.

If you have any problems, drop a message @ http://lussumo.com/community/discussion/6351/vanilla-rivals/

Thanks.

Thanks AIBOT for the quick help. I'll play around with setting things up and let you know.
