ATTN Users in bands, New features added....[views:6024][posts:70]_______________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 12:42am - the_reverend ""] if you are in a band, you got a few more options 1) click on all bands and you can (when you are logged in) add yourself to a band. don't worry if anyone lies, I will delete them. 2) if you are logged in, you can add logos to the band's page. (this is still a little hokey, but try a couple times). 3) these show up on your profiles page. 4) you will get an e-mail when someone is added as a member to your band. if you add yourself to the bands page for your band, you will get an e-mail when someone writes a comment on your band (a lot of people miss these like the_network getting a message from steve austin). features to come: approved members editing band information approved members being able to upload an mp3 approved members being able to approve other members approved members being able to approve/add bios if you have any other ideas, hit me up with them. also, if you band's page says: "le Reporte - 25_ta_life [awaiting approval]" on top instead of: "le Reporte - throwing_shrapnel [offical approved]" email me and I'll add your band to the "offical" list of bands. |

| ___________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 12:49am - succubus ""] le Reporte - throwing_shrapnel [officially approved] w00t |
| __________________________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 12:52am - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] le Reporte - the_taste_of_silver [officially approved] nice |
| ___________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 12:53am - succubus ""] wheeeeee |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 12:56am - the_reverend ""] other updates: user page http://www.returntothepit.com/updates.php?id=150 location page http://www.returntothepit.com/updates.php?id=149 |
| __________________________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 12:58am - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] I don't get what the "official" list of bands is. Like Motion Sickness says "Awaiting Approval" but that band is dead and burried, and sure as hell ain't coming back, so should I even bother getting it approved or adding myself to it? |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 1:06am - the_reverend ""] yeah, let me add it. the more info the better, I mean... what if someone comments on MS? something about paying $1mil for a reunion. that would be good info to have. |
| _________________________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 1:07am - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] true we were all about the bling |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 1:08am - the_reverend ""] there... should be "official". "official" means I've clicked on a link and added it into another table. I did this cause I'm trying to move from the band.php page listing only bands that I've shot pictures of. to a page where there can be bands that I haven't shot. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 1:10am - the_reverend ""] it will also make it (eventually) so I don't have double listings of bands. |
| _________________________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 1:11am - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] hey ok so I added myself but it doesn't say when I was in it...it just says I -am- in it. but I'm not. no one is. and on the profile page for me it says "My bands" and then that I am in MS but as you know we broke up. Maybe add a feature that if someone puts in a second date for when they ended being in the band it can go into a "past bands" part instead? |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 1:13am - the_reverend ""] good idea nicolas. once you can edit the band info, you can enter than in. I still need to add that part. I like the "past bands" thing. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 1:14am - the_reverend ""] hm.. I only have 1060 more bands to decide if they get the approval or not. |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 1:25am - shrapnel ! ""] succubus said:le Reporte - throwing_shrapnel [officially approved] w00t you and/or aaron should help us with band promos for the new cd were doing ! |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 1:29am - the_reverend ""] 983 left to approve... |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 1:35am - shrapnel ! ""] is that all |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 6:41am - the_reverend ""] up |
| _____________________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 8:10am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] This is a great idea, is there any chance you can approve a band that doesn't have photos up yet? I want to add Extinction Agenda but it won't seem to allow me. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 8:14am - the_reverend ""] I have the code for that (LONG LIVE THE CODE!), but I need to go through the 983 non- approved before I can put that in place. if you can get me 5 more hours in the day, I can do it quicker. |
| _____________________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 8:15am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] No problem man, I thought it was just my own stupidity. I already added some stuff for Hatchet. Also, I can't get that 'edit info' tab to work. Long live the code. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 8:20am - the_reverend ""] yeah.. I need to write the 'edit info' part next. honestly, I need to figure out exactly what to put there. maybe I can get something done on it today while I'm doing builds. |
| _____________________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 8:22am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] Nice, it's a really great idea, thanks for adding the feature. The logo tabs going onto the personal profile is a nice touch. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 8:27am - the_reverend ""] heh yeah.. the SQL call for it rules. I'm doing a 3 way join to do that it didn't work at first cause I wrote it first in mySQL 4.1.7 and it didn't work on the server which is running a version 3 mySQL |
| _____________________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 8:30am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] (nods head and pretends to understand.......) |
| _________________________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 8:50am - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] Hey aaron what about a store? We can sell merch through your store, you get maybe $1-2 off of every order and we, the bands and labels, get what we normally ask? Like we sell CDs for $7 ppd on our site. But on your site you can sell them for like $7 ppd and we take like $6 you take $1 or something like that? just an idea. |

I'm doing a 3 way join to do that it didn't work at first cause I wrote it first in mySQL 4.1.7 and it didn't work on the server which is running a version 3 mySQL time for a MySQL Upgrade Aaron... |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 10:05am - the_reverend ""] I would love to... (multi group expressions in 4.1.7 are the cat's meow!) but I will have to wait til I upgrade the server. the problem is that I use apt-get over rpm for my upgrades and to upgrade to 4.1.7 it has to remove rpm. so I'm going to wait and install PHP 5.0/mysql 4.1.7 when I upgrade the server which isn't going to be anytime soon I should think. |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 10:26am - LtdEc-1000 ""] This sounds great man, cant wait to see when its finished (uploading mp3's and such) |
| __________________________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 11:34am - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] bump for innovation |
| __________________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 11:39am - DreamingInExile ""] the_reverend said:the problem is that I use apt-get over rpm for my upgrades and to upgrade to 4.1.7 it has to remove rpm. why? that's the oddest thing I've heard. you might be able to get around it by grabbing the sources and compiling it yourself (I prefer compiling my own rather then grabbing RPM's, I learn more that way) home-brewed builds are the best builds. |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 11:40am - the_reverend ""] FUCK THAT. apt-get is the way to go. I use it for everything, including the knoppix OS I make for work. break RPM and/or apt-get and your life is hell. |
| __________________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 11:44am - DreamingInExile ""] I was more or less referring to the fact that it has to remove RPM... |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 11:47am - Robdeadskin ""] damn i dont get whats goin on.. |
| ___________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 11:50am - brian_dc ""] rds: if you go to one of your bands on the bands page, you can add yourself as a member of the band, post a bio, cd, stuff like that... that seems to be the rough version |
| __________________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 11:58am - DreamingInExile ""] I'm setting up a new box on my desk today, Slackware 10.2, using the 2.6.13 Kernel. then the typical services: Apache 2.0.55, PHP 5.0.5, MySQL 5.0.15... and a few others, I like the fact that it's my own dev box, so I can run all brand new & beta versions |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 12:07pm - the_reverend ""] let's take this to another thread... |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 12:13pm - RichHorror ""] It says IWEIPH is awaiting approval, and in the Logo section is a Senseless Mutilation logo. |
| __________________________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 12:20pm - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] RichHorror said:It says IWEIPH is awaiting approval, and in the Logo section is a Senseless Mutilation logo. IWEIPH is ex-Senseless Mutilation |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 12:25pm - RichHorror ""] I knew I should stop drinking cough syrup. |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 12:30pm - the_reverend ""] ok, iweiph is approved and I'm fixing that not-approved bug. |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 12:39pm - the_reverend ""] hm.. looks like someone found a new bug... you can upload a logo to a band that is not approved. so they don't get a band id #.. I think I fixed it, but I can't upload the fixes until later. |
| _____________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 1:47pm - Josh_Martin ""] When I tried to upload my cd cover it just showed up as a red x. Now I can't edit it. Help. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 2:33pm - the_reverend ""] hm... it didn't seem to upload it. I deleted it so you can try again if you like. So, I've added a few more features that I need to upload later on tonight. like when you add yourself to the band, you will not be able to delete things/approve other members until I click "approved". Once I do that, you will be able to 1) delete other members of the band 2) approve other members of the band. 3) delete/approve bios 4) delete/approve logos now, should I make it so approved members can delete band comments too? what do people think of that? |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 28,2005 5:40pm - the_reverend ""] ok... now, approved members can edit other members info. I also have an "improved" date entering thing that I think I will put into the cd review add page too. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 29,2005 4:06am - the_reverend ""] I uploaded all those fixes.. you can not edit a lot more things on the band page. |
| __________________________________________ [Oct 29,2005 6:15am - BestialOnslaught ""] Shouldn't this be marked as news???? |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 29,2005 6:37am - biggy smalls ""] i heard that you had a little dick alex this is a fact |
| _________________________________________________ [Oct 29,2005 2:03pm - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] AARON i just put "2004" for the year motion sickness started but didn't know the month or day, but then it said "October 29th 2005" for the start day... |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 30,2005 3:22pm - the_reverend ""] heh, I will fix that... oopies... and I found another bug... I'm going to put in a $name collumn and a way for you to add the other people (who aren't on RTTP) so the info is there. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 30,2005 6:10pm - the_reverend ""] ok, nick, I fixed the issue you were seeing. there is also a name collumn so you can write in a "display name". this makes it so it doesn't show, say, "menstral_sweatpants_disco" as the drummer of BOE |
| ___________________________________ [Oct 30,2005 7:49pm - Ionsphere ""] this is segregation! |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 30,2005 8:18pm - the_reverend ""] damn straight it is. wait till I make a few more changes. I've been thinking about banning threads involving weed cause it can make a black man look at white women! |
| ___________________________________ [Oct 30,2005 8:51pm - Ionsphere ""] hahahhha that was sketchiest thing i have ever heard you say. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 30,2005 9:18pm - the_reverend ""] and I would reply but I banned myself for mentioning weed. dang nabid. |
| _________________________________________________ [Oct 31,2005 9:37am - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] I love the black banner for bands or members that are no longer around, that's a good touch. I don't think I understand this "display name" thing? I can't seem to find it but maybe I am crazy. thanks Aaron. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 31,2005 9:52am - the_reverend ""] you have to click "edit members" and then click on your name. it's so you can make it say "Nick" instead of "the taste of cigarettes" |
| _________________________________________________ [Oct 31,2005 9:55am - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] oh rock out |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 31,2005 10:07am - Anthony nli ""] hey rev, could you please add cryptic warning to the official bands list? thanks |
| _______________________________________ [Oct 31,2005 12:14pm - the_reverend ""] done. |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 31,2005 3:54pm - the_reverend ""] hey nickTOS, I just got a thing saying that rowan added himself to TOS. will you click the little [+] next to his name and approve him as a member? |
| _________________________________________________ [Oct 31,2005 4:23pm - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] I did, but it says he went from 2004-1979??? wha?? |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 31,2005 4:27pm - the_reverend ""] hm... I'm going to have to look into that tonight, eh? |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 31,2005 8:10pm - the_reverend ""] it says that he entered 1976... |
| _________________________________________________ [Oct 31,2005 9:35pm - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] like, on purpose? cause I'd expect that from dudes in my band if so |
| ______________________________________ [Oct 31,2005 9:49pm - the_reverend ""] it looks so. |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 8,2005 11:36am - the_reverend ""] I'm pretty sure that someone else from 3 headed monster tried to add themselves yesterday and I had an error in my code. it's been fixed if you want to go re-add yourself. |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 10,2005 3:45pm - the_reverend ""] bump |
| _________________________________________________ [Nov 10,2005 5:27pm - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] MORE USER FEATURES!! I love it. this site is all powerful. Aaron, I really did put a HUGE line in the CD packaging that says "support www.returntothepit.com // www.defyunlearn.com" it's massive |
| ______________________________________ [Nov 10,2005 5:33pm - the_reverend ""] can you make the RTTP on a boner? |
| _________________________________________________ [Nov 15,2005 11:50am - whiskey_weed_and_women ""] logo uploads are now even easier, this guy....this guy over here. let me tell you something about this guy !!! |
