Website Redesign Proposal: Profile Login

Post by gagolthegreat »

Matt pointed out in his mockup a feature to login and see your characters, change the password, etc...

As I am very new to the development team, and on the website, I would like to know how feasible it is and how much work it represents. Aside from this, we should discuss which feature you would like to see in the profile manager.

Getting any information from the game server itself is a massive pain and possibly impossible.

Ok, I go ahead and NOT plan this feature. Is a simple password change complicated?

Well, there is a cgi script that offers a few details such as account creation, it *might* be possible to adapt it.

I have absolutely no idea why we have the hacky registration.php instead of the cgi script, though; you'd need an answer to that before we go trying to add new cgi scripts.

I will put that (password change) in my low priority list (nothing else better left to do) and focus on low hanging fruits for the moment. I will definitely try to streamline account creating using the cgi script instead of the php hack.

Thank you for sharing your insightful knowledge.

Well, I had TmwServ and CR1 in my mind.

But I guess all plans on that are dead and Tmw focuses on eAthena content?

We can reconsider once new mana server is ready.
