General Chat / Re: The ( unofficial ) America's Army 2.5 Assist Event Calendar!
« on: Monday, May 25, 2015, 13:48:02 PM »To keep the discussion in this thread...
Yes, the Google Calendar here doesn't look as pretty as the events page you made, Mentalist. But there's a few reasons why I went with it;
- We already have a Google account.
- It's easy to use and convert times for.
- Easy to integrate into this site.
I wouldn't use an iframe going to your site. I know the Google Calendar uses one but I trust their security and uptime more than any other website, including this one.
So, what do we do? I could host your files here and integrate it into AAO25. But, you'd be relinquishing your control of files and database since I don't really feel comfortable granting FTP access. How do we come to a win-win?
Maybe you let me continue working on this project? I renamed the topic and added ( unofficial ) to it. I also added a link in the beginning in the topic that brings players to the latest reply in this topic.
I'll have to get more clanleaders behind it in order to work. And in order to do that, I still have a lot of things to do.
In addition, all events hosted by the PAM clan will not be hosted on the PAM server. I will use different config files and want to grant admin acces to all big clan day admins. I think this is the best way in order to make some events succesfull.
And spanky, maybe you can just refer your "Events" link at the top to this topic? This way, all the events can be read on this website and players don't actually have to leave this site in order to view them. Only if they want to view all upcoming events in one page, the'll have to click on the external link.
Or you can continue working on a simular project, try to get admins behind it, manage it with lots of dedication like I'm planning on doing. But I'm asking for a chance. You can evaluate it and see what you want to do after a couple of months?
As soon as I know if I can get your support, I'll do anything to make it look like a part of this website. The reason why I didn't add a submission form for example is because I want players to announce it on this forum, so that the forum stays active. And the subdomain i'm using is just a domain-forward. PAM doesn't have a real website.
