Sabioviejo Posted December 8, 2009 Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 Since a few weeks I have a new job, I'm learning a lot of programming(PHP) and designing(HTML, CSS, JS, AJAX). I would be up to develop a database of sorts for CNRP where we can store certain things. Maybe even with a login for everybody. This would relieve some pressure off this forum as we have a lot of topics were we try to keep track of things, but were things fail for different reasons. Biggest reason is that forums were never meant to store data and make it clear and organized. But before I launch myself into a big project I would like to hear what the CNRP people think of this idea. Note, its in no way meant to replace anything from within CNRP, just add more functionality and comfort. So if you have ideas of what to put up on this website, or other things you want to say about this go ahead. I won't be starting this project before 2009 anyway.

Franz Ferdinand Posted December 8, 2009 Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 This is a very well crafted proposal, and I'd definitely use it if it does get formulated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niedalry Posted December 8, 2009 Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 (edited) I've been thinking of something similar recently. Not sure if your familiar with TikiWiki but it might be ideal for this. Or to a lesser extent PhpWiki Edited December 8, 2009 by Lord Akkarin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niedalry Posted December 8, 2009 Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 http://cybernations.wikia.com Yes I know the of the CN wiki but thats dedicated to CN and not CNRP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's got a point there, Cent. Anyway, sounds like an excellent proposal, Sitethief Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subtleknifewielder Posted December 8, 2009 Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 (edited) Look around it, it's filled with cnrp yes...but it has to be labeled specifically as such. Edited December 8, 2009 by Subtleknifewielder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Centurius Posted December 8, 2009 Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 yes...but it has to be labeled specifically as such. Not really it's just more polite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subtleknifewielder Posted December 8, 2009 Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 Not really it's just more polite. If it's not lavbelled as such, it's not going to be easy to find. This database can change that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingEsus Posted December 8, 2009 Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 Not really it's just more polite. Wikia is also getting increasingly difficult to use and edit given the ever increasing number of badly placed adverts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sabioviejo Posted December 8, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 This website could link to relevant topics and wiki pages if needed. So again, its not a replacement. And I just opend this topci so I could get some feature requests going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subtleknifewielder Posted December 8, 2009 Report Share Posted December 8, 2009 Let's see...it could include a list of important characters, extremely basic info about the nations in question (such as location, who RP's them, etc). Basically, a lot of the stuff that is covered in individual threads here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king of cochin Posted December 9, 2009 Report Share Posted December 9, 2009 Sitethief, this sounds like a good idea and perhaps you could also incorporate a google earth applet to view the world map in 3d? like this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sargun II Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 (edited) http://cnrp.wikia.com/wiki/Evan_Hiley Since a wiki is rather easy to use and anybody can update their own stuff when it changes instead of having sitethief having to update everything himself I figured it would be nice to make a CNRP Wiki for us. The front page is still blank because I'm looking for a suitable picture, though. Better yet, you can mark whatever is secret and whatever isn't secret with minimal effort, and can have better-looking factbooks than what goes on these forums.

Subtleknifewielder Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 (edited) If you can manage posting on a forum you should be able to handle reading a wiki. From what I saw the one time I tried Wiki, the coding seems a little more complicated.

Sargun II Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 If you want to try it, just give me some information and I'll code it for you so you can see how it looks like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subtleknifewielder Posted December 10, 2009 Report Share Posted December 10, 2009 Give me a bit to figure out what info i'd want to put up, then I'll get back to you. I appreciate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
