Fantasy Grounds 5e Auto Web Site - DM Testers wanted

[trevorgall]

Just updated site. to handle a few campaigns ppl have tried.

Updated instns a little.. notes on careful with images etc.

Also amended security..you need to register and log in first before uploading.

also shows the player URL on the campaign site page , when you access it, so you can copy and give to players.

Shod.

LOl.. in my game prob the female cleric player.. lol..
How do you handle mutiple session files?

The chatlog continues to accumulate per campaign so I just replace the results with the new results when an update is sent in. It could be modified further to split it up per session if it looks for indicators of loads for each total.

Cool idea.. mind if i add a page to my site with something similar?.. ill drop your name as credit for the idea.. i can use some .net graphs controls.. What did yo do the coding in?

[ddavison]

I wrote a desktop .net app to read the chatlog file and output a CSV that I just manually imported to mySQL. The website uses PHP and I used Google charts IIRC.

Cool all, got some good responses.. about 6 campaigns up so far. Most are just the chars and inventory.
Looking at following ddavisions idea and adding a stats page (will credit you, mate)

Shod.

I feel very stupid but I can't upload my campaign. It keeps telling me: "Enter a Campaign Name First!"

Hey, Trevor. I uploaded a POTA campaign. Tried to try some others but kept getting errors. Maybe we are only allowed one? Also, what should I expect to see? I saw some of the characters but not all and saw one that isn't an "active" character but is in the campaign. Also didn't see anything in the story or inventory. Wasn't sure if I should or not. Just trying to help test. Love the idea!

[trevorgall]

Yup enter a campaign name (whatever yu wish) on the left box on first screen.
Then click add.
if you get error on the XML..send to me.. the db.xml..

Ill add a check for errors tonight... so i can auto check the file myself.

[trevorgall]

Thanks re - active ., yes ill need to check a flag for that and exclude.
Check your STORY TAB.
PARTY INVENTORY.

Hey, Trevor! I think I'm being an idiot. I guess I'm still not clear what story entries should show up on the webpage. I understand I need to create a notes page and populate it to have text on the main campaign page, but I've uploaded my db.xml file and right now all I see is a few of the characters. The story and inventory pages of the website are blank. Just not sure how I decide what shows up in the story entries. Thanks!
