sry, delete this reply

for the general site 5/10 for the template 0/10

[badboystar]

@ gregon: This website is more for the people who are new to php, so they can edit this website to their own fancy's. Because html is easy to learn right. And the template is easy to change as well.

Fixed bug that you can't access Burning Crusaded content because of standard 0 input. now fixed with radiobuttons with choice of wow version:

Just overwrite the fix with original files.

Edit: Created new release including pre-made headers and include the register fix.

To use an new header just rename it to header and overwrite it with header.png in the img dir. Pre-made headers are in the htdocs\img\headers directory.

very nice, a few things i saw when i loaded it....


you might make one php file with all the mysql settings and link to it for the username and passwords and such....

and look at making the account creation a little more strict...mine was making blank accounts....

Yea I'll do that in next release.

and look at making the account creation a little more strict...mine was making blank accounts....

What do you mean with that, to disable short account names etc.?

[holdenms]

site i would say 6/10 but layout 0/10 cause it's nothing related to WoW

[badboystar]

There are headers included that are from wow, so it looks more wow like.

And if you don't like it, edit the template yourself it's easy to do.

I think you need to make an new account at your PHPMyAdmin, and then you can set an ip address for the account you can set that to the ip you want.

Decided to stop developping this website, only if there are some bugs found by some of you, I will try to fix it and update SVN.

can you write a guide in how to set up the website using xampp step by step?? im totally noob in this... but i do know how to write html and php codes...

[zingmars]

Web: 5/10, but template - 1/10 (well, its better than nothing)

[dkdillerdk]

You could try google for an XAMPP tutorial, it isnt that hard just install, run Apache and MySQL in the XAMPP control panel. And you website dir is standard C:\xampp\htdocs you can delete everything whats in that directory, and then put your website in it.

<? include("tools/_config.php"); $name = $_POST[name]; $pass = $_POST[pass]; $mail = $_POST[mail]; $exp = $_POST[R1]; $con = mysql_connect("$aHost","$aUsername","$aPass"); if (!$con) { die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error()); } mysql_select_db("$aDatabase", $con); if(mysql_num_rows(mysql_query("SELECT login FROM accounts WHERE login = '$name'"))){ echo "Account name already exist!"; } else { $sql="INSERT INTO accounts (login, password, email,flags) VALUES ('$name','$pass','$mail','$exp')"; if (!mysql_query($sql,$con)) { die('Error: ' . mysql_error()); } echo "Account created!"; mysql_close($con); } ?>
