  • About SKG Web
  •  

I still have a lot to do on this, but it's now ready for initial beta release.

To use this system you need to first be using Zhinjio's SKG addon / loot system (http://www.curse.com/downloads/detail.../8675), otherwise, you are S.O.L. As well, your web server needs to be running PHP and MySQL for this to work for you.

SKG Web brings your SKG lists to the website and allows you to display your lists to your guild so that everyone knows who is where when it comes to looting. It also will create a running backup of your lists whenever you upload a new file so that you always have a backup in case of a catastrophe such as a hard drive failing (never happens, I know).

I'll get to adding the features of SKG Web soon. For now, here's the early beta.

The install guide bit for curse keeps killing what I put in there, so here's the rough and dirty installation guide:

Okay, so you've downloaded this beast. Now how do you get it to work for you?

That's the easy part.

Let's get started shall we?

  • Unzip the archive somewhere and hop into the folder.
    • In there you'll find a file called "config.php". It's located in the /SKG_Web/ folder.
  • Open the "config.php" file and follow the comments to adjust the system to your specific web server setup.
    • Remember to leave the quotes exactly as they are or you run the chance of breaking your installation. PHP can be a fickle adversary at times.
  • Once you have finished editing the "config.php" file, save it and then upload the /SKG_Web/ folder and all of it's contents to your webserver.
    • Remember that when uploading your files that all the files in the /SKG_Web/images/ folder need to be transferred in BINARY mode and everything else needs to be transferred using ASCII.
  • After you have uploaded everything in the /SKG_Web/ folder you'll need to make sure that the /SKG_Web/files/ folder is writeable by your server to allow SKG Web to backup your SKG.lua files for you when you upload them
    • Most FTP programs will allow this by right clicking the folder name on the webserver and clicking CHMOD, Permissions, or something like that.
    • You want the permissions to be set to: 0777

Now for the fun part!

  • Ensure that your database that you put in the "config.php" is up and running, and then point your web browser to your SKG Web installation and the install script will see that you've not installed yet and will automatically kick in.
    • Your installation will vary based on your particular setup, but it will typically be: http://www.*YourDomain*.com/SKG_Web/index.php
    • Just follow the directions given (if any, there's not much for you to do here except click a few buttons).
  • After installation is complete, hop back on your web server and delete the folder /SKG_Web/install/ and all of it's contents.
    • The system will not let you go any further than this once installation is complete until you have deleted that folder. It is a HUGE security risk for you to leave that folder on the website.
  • After making sure that the /SKG_Web/install/ directory and it's contents have been removed from the server, point your browser back to your SKG Web and login to the Admin user you created during install.
    • Again, your installation will vary based on your particular setup, but it will typically be: http://www.*YourDomain*.com/SKG_Web/index.php
  • Once you've logged in, go ahead and upload your SKG.lua file.

That's all there is to it folks. You're done with installation now.

    So I notice your test is no longer available.

    I was unable to make this work on my site. Just a blank page.

    Wondering if you plan on finishing this?

    1.0b5
    * Fixed an issue where the upgrade system and the install system got themselves confused on when they should run.
    * Fixed an issue with the embed system that was breaking other PHP / Template based systems such as PHPBB and vBulletin.

    1.0b4
    * Added Upgrade system.
    * Added lastUpdate field to Roll Lists to show when the last update to a list was done on the left module on Home Page
    ** per http://www.curse.com/downloads/details/12333/tickets/details/2164/.
    * Added the last update time to the roll lists on the left module on the home page.
    * Added offsite embedding. Simply put the "require_once" PHP call in the file you want to embed your lists into, then call the variable: $embedLists.
    ** Code Format:
    *** require_once('<*rootDirectory*>/SKG_Web/embed.php');
    ** Call Variable:
    *** $embedLists

    1.0b3
    * Fixed type mismatch in home.php that was continuing to prevent the display of all the lists.
    * Started working on documentation

    1.0b2
    * Fixed a hard code meta refresh in login.php.
    * Fixed a hard code base href in header.html.
    * Fixed config.php to not show *my* information (yes, already changed the password on the server.)
    * Removed /SKG_Web/template/Test.php as this was merely to showcase the style.
    * Fixed a bad SQL argument in home.php that was causing the lists to not show in the left module on the homepage.

    1.0b1
    * Initial Beta Release

    And thank you for the embed option :)

    1.0b4 wont let you create an Admin account on a fresh install. After it reports its 1.0b3 and upgrades to 1.0b4 it tries to go directly to the index page and skipping the admin creation section.

    Fixed.

    The install and upgrade systems were getting confused on when they should run. Apparently upgrade thinks it's better than install, so upgrade kept trying to take over midway through install's job, this of course led to the in-fighting that so many dysfunctional families get into. It even got the point where install threatened to sleep with upgrade's spouse, index...

    Okay, yeah I have no idea where I was going with that...anyway, it's fixed and new version is being uploaded now.

    Solved, it was my fault. Your addon is ok, well is much better than ok.

    Thanks for your coding time Jabouty ;)
