@doc The theme disables logo on mobile, what's the best way to enable it on mobile for this theme?

2.A banner for that header div? Or?

In headofsite div, that contains the logo & the main search. It would be good to have a full width banner option, the height being adjustable to suit the banner. Fixed in place at the top, with the option to be scrollable & logo position adjustable.

3.The admin and mod cp links are on the name

Thank's, figured it out - needs a drop down arrow in my view.

Hi @doc, just purchased your theme and I have to say this has potential to be the best theme released on IPS in my view. Top marks 👍

I have this installed at the moment and I have some questions, some bugs to highlight. 

Questions:

1. What is summertime, what is it's purpose? Doesn't make sense to me?
2. Can a banner image be set, fixed probably using where the search area is, using a setting from within theme?
3. On desktop, vertical menu - what has happened to the admin cp and mod cp links?
4. On desktop the menu is not carried over as defined in the ACP, it is what you have set within theme settings for vertical menu, the user menu does not carry over account menu
5. 
6. 
7. You have language errors on the theme settings
8. 

This just some of the things we have picked up so far, otherwise it's a great "looking" theme. You do have a lot of things under custom css which should have it's own file tbh. In addition, I think a setting to activate light mode within the ACP would be good,

The ladder and pyramid are the same things just displayed differently, I will make a normal ladder if you wanted with just a long list of teams but it can't be any amount can join, a ladder needs stages 1st stage having the number 1 place,.... 2nd stage has 2nd & 3rd,.... 3rd stage holds 4th 5th 6th and so on, without stages then someone in last place can challenge the person in 1st and thats not ( from what I seen ) how a ladder tournament works

 

Of course, however last place can challenge 2nd last place or within a set range. Otherwise they can’t climb the ladder, any new joins are automatically last place in the ladder. 

Really need a proper ladder, rather than a pyramid. The pyramid is not being received well with the staff & I presume with the users as well. Maybe you can introduce this as an option, show ladder as pyramid or traditional ladder. 

A ladder is not restricted in the amount of entries a pyramid is. 

It’s more the 21 team limit which is the issue, I do prefer option 1 over 2 tbh. People are more accustomed to the traditional ladder system. I have installed it and will give some feedback in due course.

Thanks for the addition though, appreciated.

Just out of curiosity @TheJackal84, you chose a pyramid style rather than the standard ladder system.

Any particular reason for this? You seem to be limiting the amount of teams that can enter and will eventually cause style issues?

Haven’t updated yet and may be a moot point.

Looks good, chomping at the bit to test. Any ideas as to when it’ll be ready @TheJackal84?

I am starting with 6, 10, 15, 21 teams for ladder tournaments ( gotta have neat ladders ), once a team sends a challenge out then they can't challenge until either the challenge is accepted and played or the challenge is rejected, If the challenge is ignored they will have the ability to remove it so they can send another to someone else

With the submitting of scores etc that is all down to the tournament creator, if they want they they can use the comment sections for the users to the embed videos or images etc, they can add it to the tournament description under rules etc that to get your score added you need to post whatever it is you will require

Oh and you will be able to challenge 1 tier above and 1 tier below where you are

What kind of timescale are we looking at?

Staff would need to confirm the tournament as ready for the ladder tournament to appear, whether 2, 4, 6, or 8 teams etc. have entered. I would be looking for option to end after x amount of games played for example as a setting, or continues ladder tournament or end after set date. Never ending is good, but if someone wants to join the ladder tournament, the ability to join an existing ladder tournament would be welcome.

Would be handy for world record scores for example, ability to set up a ladder and allow people to join and submit scores but would need to be able to supply evidence via a video, screenshot etc & then be approved. Not necessary at this stage but something for it to be added too in the future?

Let me see what it would require etc and I'll get back to you

Superb, I’m being harassed for a quick turnaround for the next DLC drop. We obviously want to have it implemented and live by then and obviously tested and bugs reported/fixed etc.

DLC drops tomorrow 😜 😂 (kidding, about 4 weeks time), talking a fortnight max?

@TheJackal84 need ladder feature asap. Do you have this in mind anytime soon? If not, can we strike a deal for a fairly quick turn around?

Do you mean the nav tabs? 

No the actual buttons on the page for teams, you have add teams, on tournaments you have add tournament. 

It would be more intuitive to have add team and add tournament side by side.

The old app was in my applications folder on server and it was an out of date app in applications acp.

I made the old one (got slowed up finishing it for 4.x and haven't yet released publicly.)

I know, been waiting on the release but we have a planned tournament coming up with ad sponsors and needed a solution.

Sorry. Had no idea you had it on the roadmap again.

Ok bought the app, looking good so far. Couple of points to highlight.

1: If you had the old tournaments app installed, it will be an out of date application. Delete it or this will not install as the system thinks it is already installed. It’s not an upgrade.

2: You may need to remove Db tables referring to the old tournaments system, I did as a precaution.

3: You need to supply a user guide and install instructions in the download, not everyone is as “tech savvy” as others and will need some direction.

4: User guide, it’s becoming apparent on what to do etc. but a little bit of guidance wouldn’t go a miss. It’s a premium addon, it should be there.

5: Why have main menu tournaments and then a sub menu teams? You could simply add buttons for add category and add team side by side.

6: landing page, where it can be edited to advise players etc. of the the tournament rules and so forth.

This is just minor feedback at present @TheJackal84 but looking a good app so far 👏👏👏

It don't seem to be that popular of a app, everyone wanted it until it was made lol

Yeah the widgets do come in handy plus you can put them anywhere in the website what will link them to the tournaments etc, another one will be like a featured widget for all the featured tournaments

I think it would be more popular if the price was lower and the renewal. I appreciate the hardwork that goes into making these but the price is a bit prohibitive.

Was looking to demo this buts it’s broken on your site @thejackal

+1 for push notifications.

It's fine, I've added the code required to a custom template.

<a href="{$category->url()}">

{{if $category->pcimage}}<a href="{$category->url()}"><div class="SG_cat_image" style="background-image:url('{file='$category->pcimage'}');"></div>{{endif}}

Does what I need it to do.

Thank you. What I’m trying to say is, that the pages category images app in my view, should be doing that by default? by making the href call without having to do edits? Rather than just adding a static image?

I’m not a coder but I can certainly hack what I need to be done and thank you for the info above but it would be far better suited to being default with the app (if possible)?

Can it not be done automatically? So that whatever databAse you're in clicking the image for the category does aexactly what the article image does? Unless I'm not seeing it, you can't wrap the image in a <href="link"> as it's an image upload into that category?

That would require doing this for every single category & if you update/change the image, you then need to go and change the link etc and where exactly would all these image links need to be added?

Article images are clickable and take you into the article by default but the category image plugin doesn't take you into the category with the articles submitted.

What's the chances of the image uploaded being clickable, to access the database that it has been upload too? At the moment it's a static image with no interaction to the user, who would expect on both mobile/tablet & PC to be able to click this to access the DB.

Great app btw, linkable image would be fantastic addition.

It's fine I have created a copy of supergrid category listing and renamed it, and removed the offending code from supergrid category listing / category row template

			<dl class="ipsDataItem_stats ipsDataItem_statsLarge">
				{{$count = $RecordsClass::contentCount( $category, FALSE );}}
				<dt class="ipsDataItem_stats_number">{number="$count"}</dt>
				<dd class="ipsDataItem_stats_type ipsType_light">{expression="\IPS\cms\Databases::load( $category->database_id )->recordWord( $count )"}</dd>
			</dl>

In index I amended the database group accordingly and I have exactly what I'm after.

{template="categoryRow" app="cms" location="database" group="Easter_Egg_Guides_categorylisting" params="$category"}

I’m not sure what I’m looking at. That doesn’t look like the SuperHelp product. It looks like a SuperGrid category page, which has this kind of record counter. It should float on the right side next to the title, but this seems to be broken on your page somehow. 

Definitely super help, but using supergrid templates. All i did is took out the code  in chrome to show what I was looking for.

Below is the mobile view as it is.

Thanks for this @opentype, great pages addition, along with your others.

It might be me but I can't find the setting. If I have a main category, the sub categories, it shows how many steps are within it. I don't need it to show this and would ideally like to disabled it. 

1: It creates more space

2: It creates a lot of wasted space

What I would like to try and achieve is the following, I presume it is a template change and or a feature request?

@onlyME I just tried to renew sub, button for renew was present on marketplace, then advised not allowed to renew. Now renew button gone and wants me to purchase again? Wanted to renew for a year. Any help on the renew?
