WebDKP is an addon that allows guild leaders to easily manage the DKP for their guild. It works with a companion website [http://www.webdkp.com] where guild leaders can upload and display their guilds DKP for free.
The system was made to be easy to work with. In game guild leaders have access to their DKP and can easily record awards and view changes. Then, with a press of a button all this information from the addon is put online for all your guild members to see. You can then update or tweak the information via the website and view your changes back in game.
Update:10/15/2009:
Hi everyone, my name is Zevious and I will be helping get this project rolling again. I've been working on the in game addon for several months now and have added several new features that will allow for better loot management in game. Unfortunately, I do not have access to the official www.webdkp.com website so wont be able to help much on that side of things. Virtually all of my modifications to this point are compatible with www.webdkp.com and I plan on doing the best I can to keep it that way. I do plan on adding some features such as raid attendance that wont be able to be synced to the site. Hopefully someone with access to this site will come back and implement support for the things I add in game. Please feel free to post suggestions or inform me of any bugs you may find.
You can post suggestions or issues you find at the www.webdkp.com forums or my own I've created at www.dkptracker.com. I can't post files or create sticky topics in the webdkp.com so that's why I've created my own forum to help manage this.Installation Notes:
WebDKP Helper is no longer compatible with WebDKP. If you are currently using a previous version of WebDKP please synchronize to the webdkp.com before installing this new version because a few new variables have been added to the log.
General Description of WebDKP:
WebDKP is an in game addon that allows you to award and keep track of Dragon Kill Points (DKP). Currently WebDKP supports several different styles of DKP awarding systems. WebDKP only requires one person to keep track of DKP. The version of the addon on the official www.webdkp.com website is version 2.9H. Unfortunately I do not have access to this site so wont be able to update it and the version I post will only be available on curse.com at this point.
Listing of changes from 2.9h available at www.webdkp.com
1.) Added a rolling monitor in the bidding frame. Works with the timer. Does not allow duplicate rolls and rolls must be between 1-100.
2.) Added Auto Award DKP for boss kills in Northrend. Allows you to specify an award amount for boss kills. Also can set it for 10 mans or 25
3.) Addition of an enable/disable feature, Thanks Cather from Bronzebeard. This can be found in the general options.
4.) Fixed some linking issues from announcements and other linking issues for bidding.
5.) Resized the DKP table frame to show 25 people.
6.) When you use the Award DKP frame and award dkp it will automatically de-select all so there's no accidental awards.
7.) There is now an option in bidding to enable/disable auto giving of items when you award them in the bidding window. This feature only works when you are Master Looter and in a raid.
8.) The first phase of my synching feature has been added. It can be found under Synch Settings. This feature transfers the DKP table in game to other users.
9.) Added the decay code Moonblaze posted in webdkp.com forums. Tweaked it a bit and added a box to specify the decay value along with a button.
10.) There is now an option in the Bidding options to enable Turn Base DKP. This is basically uses the fixed bidding code but does not use loot tables. Bid All and Spend All on items basically.
11.) Updated TOC file so the addon is not out of date for 3.2.
12.) Fixed an issue with class colors.
13.) Noticed the thread: http://www.webdkp.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=1685. Fixed this issue.
14.) Guild Only Filter
15.) Guild Ranks shown and can be sorted.
16.) Multiple loot windows if ML isn't set. (Up to 5)
17.) Added the second part of synching so you can auto synch with people.
18.) Ability to disable announcements in the options.
19.) Fix for the class issue when updating player list from the armory on the website. This will check the class in game and update if necessary.
20.) Added multiple new slash commands and the ability to add items to the ignore list
21.) Added a graphical interface for the log which allows you to undo awards.
22.) Added the new bosses to autoaward in ToC, Vault and Onyxia
Planned Future Additions:
1.) Raid Attendance
2.) Percent based awards
3.) A need vs greed type of system

Installation Guide
- Exit "World of Warcraft" completely
- Download the mod you want to install
- Make a folder on your desktop called "My Mods"
- Save the .zip/.rar files to this folder.
- If, when you try to download the file, it automatically "opens" it... you need to RIGHT click on the link and "save as..." or "Save Target As".
- Extract the file - commonly known as 'unzipping'
Do this ONE FILE AT A TIME!
- Windows
- Windows XP has a built in ZIP extractor. Double click on the file to open it, inside should be the file or folders needed. Copy these outside to the "My Mods" folder.
- WinRAR: Right click the file, select "Extract Here"
- WinZip: You MUST make sure the option to "Use Folder Names" is CHECKED or it will just extract the files and not make the proper folders how the Authors designed
- Mac Users
- StuffitExpander: Double click the archive to extract it to a folder in the current directory.
- Verify your WoW Installation Path
That is where you are running WoW from and THAT is where you need to install your mods.
- Move to the Addon folder
- Open your World of Warcraft folder. (default is C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\)
- Go into the "Interface" folder.
- Go into the "AddOns" folder.
- In a new window, open the "My Mods" folder.
- The "My Mods" folder should have the "Addonname" folder in it.
- Move the "Addonname" folder into the "AddOns" folder
- Start World of Warcraft
- Make sure AddOns are installed
- Log in
- At the Character Select screen, look in lower left corner for the "addons" button.
- If button is there: make sure all the mods you installed are listed and make sure "load out of date addons" is checked.
- If the button is NOT there: means you did not install the addons properly. Look at the above screenshots. Try repeating the steps or getting someone who knows more about computers than you do to help.
Translations
When you download a mod, please be sure that the mod is compatible with your translation of wow. Some mods only work on the US versions, while some only work on some of the various European versions. These variations are called "Localizations".
TOC Numbers (Out of Date Mods)
When Blizzard patches WoW, they change the Interface number. This means that all mods will be "out of date" unless or until the author releases a new version for that interface. Some people go into the .toc files and update the numbers themselves, but this is STRONGLY advised against as it will cause problems locating possible incompatibilities addons. When you log into WoW after a patch, you DO NOT have to delete your interface directory. All you have to do is simply tell WoW to ignore the interface numbers and load all the mods anyway. All you have to do is, while at the "character select" screen, look in the lower left corner and click on the "addons" button. A window will pop up listing all your installed mods.
If you look in the upper left corner of that window there should be a box that says "Load Out of Date AddOns". You want to CHECK this box. Now simply go into WoW normally and all your mods should load. As of the 1.9 patch, you will have to do this after EVERY patch/update that Blizzard posts! If you encounter any problems with a mod after a patch, please be sure to let the author of the mod know so they can fix it.

Mac Support
