Hi, lovin the new site. Looking forward to seeing it build up with new features and bands. Did you put your clock forward? The who's online/last activity time seems to be an hour behind.


# Posted by viking - 02/04/2008, 21:24 (GMT)
hey slayer! see first two comments on thhis blog!! :-))

re: Time/Whos On

Just been googling, apparently the sqlmembership provider works on the UTC clock, which means I need to do an hour adjustment as we're in GMT Summertime +1. Its not a biggy issue for the moment. Just hooking up the gig guide before Wrecked kill me! :-)

lol! yeah-they were very anxious? think wolfpack might be howling for your blood iffen that's not up and running soon too. )don't forget me "cricketers"one,please???


# Posted by mr.nwb - 02/04/2008, 21:48 (GMT)
Gig Guide on now - needs a bit of tidying up, but alteast ive managed to port all the gigs sucessfully from the old database. This new site has a totally different schema, so there was a lot of crossed fingers involved.

As a rule of thumb, people with FAN accounts wont be able to submit gigs (as I had problems in the past with fans adding dodgy/non existent gigs) - On the plus side, I'll be assigning some of the regulars with "gig add" abilities - aka Viking!

Kick the Kat gig now listed!

oooer! responsibility!! do i "do" "responsibility??? (bites fingernails nervously!!)
by the way-THANK YOU!!-i'd promised alan and sharon (cricketers) i'd get the gig on for this week-their it person is not available at the moment.


# Posted by viking - 03/04/2008, 20:54 (GMT)
not a "bug" as such-happened with the previous site as well. is there a way to make it so that when we "Log out" we LOG OUT?? sometimes it can show as being still logged in quite a while after we've signed out.
again-merely an observation? "community recognition programme" sounds rather arkansaw chain gangy, methinks? liking the concept, but perhaps something like "community involvement status", bit less sherriff roscoe p. coltraine?? :-)))


# Posted by mr.nwb - 03/04/2008, 20:58 (GMT)
Yeah - I noticed that too - I think its a Cookie authentication problem, in that some people still have a cookie on their computer related to the OLD site, and hence keeping them logged in. Try zapping your cookies, and restarting the browser. Its a problem which happened (and got solved) with the last site too.

Yeah, Community recognition should be a cool way to keep the site chugging along. It'll also be a really good way to monitor/delete off members who dont contribute. I can see the Community Recognition Programm (CRP - lol!), being the new "CHART" headache! hehe

Well if you post a comment, thats +1,.. if theres a typo,. then you'll get -1,.. if you repost with the typos correct that you'll go +1.

You will only go Minus points, if you delete a comment, and dont replace it.

I'll start a Blog about CRP, so the comments can go together.

Hey Paul, just tried adding a few gigs but they've not appeared in the list. Also, just tried to update a couple of the current gigs but they keep defaulting to 8:00 pm start and when I add any comments they don't appear.


# Posted by Phoenix - 04/04/2008, 09:34 (GMT)
Just noticed I've lost two CRP points by deleting a gig that had been carried over twice. I've been robbed!


# Posted by mr.nwb - 04/04/2008, 10:08 (GMT)
Hopefully sorted that bug - cheers for spotting that. The time/info should work now

You may have lost a couple of CRP points as I noticed some of your gigs were listed twice :-)

I'll refund you 2 for bringing the bug to my attention :-)


# Posted by Matt - 13/04/2008, 15:24 (GMT)
On some of the profile external web links, (well mine and sxnw) the http bit appears twice, (no doubt because i should have just put the www bit onwards). I can't find a way to edit this at the moment.

cheers


# Posted by mr.nwb - 13/04/2008, 16:24 (GMT)
Cheers matt - Yeah noticed that too. Im just uploading/testing the profile edit page. So you should be able to edit it pretty soonish.

Ive hooked up the ability to change you profile name, and to choose your own profile url e.g. northwestbands.co.uk/matt

Thats a new featured added to the new NWB - In the last one, I had to update the URLS manually just so it wouldnt mess up the NWB coding.


# Posted by Matt - 14/04/2008, 12:35 (GMT)
ideal, I'll have a play about, cheers


# Posted by barefeet - 14/04/2008, 18:47 (GMT)
Any idea when we can have our music player back? Really missing it as can't advise venue's to check out our songs. Cheers


# Posted by mr.nwb - 14/04/2008, 20:52 (GMT)
Should be available in the next few days - Its the next thing on the list to implement.


# Posted by Phoenix - 24/04/2008, 12:12 (GMT)
Paul, how do I find the comments that have been sent us? I know we've got some but I'm blowed if I know how to get to them.


# Posted by mr.nwb - 24/04/2008, 12:16 (GMT)
They appear on your profile page..

Will you be able to "watch" a blog thread?

I have to scroll through the big list to find the ones I'm trying to watch.

Just wondered if its in the add-ons/future roll-outs


# Posted by mrs.nwb (TO BE!!) - 24/04/2008, 13:23 (GMT)
Good idea! You forget about them once they're off the main blog page, i found that too.. a blog of mine that people are commenting on but i don't always know.. (until my hotmail account has 100000000000000000000 emails - grr!) switched the email notification off now too so i think the 'watch' idea would be good! :-)


# Posted by mr.nwb - 24/04/2008, 14:00 (GMT)
yeah, good idea. I'll introduce a blog subscription clicky.
