Team Dashboard / Portal

[Zub]

Hi all,

Using my wow-ratings framework i created a Portal to monitor the progress and gear of your toons/team.

http://wow-ratings.com/index_teams.php

I originaly did it for myself (to see which toons needed which achievements and upgrade) but think it might benefit the community.
I based it on the data used in the Maxi Toon Lists (many toon sigs: http://www.dual-boxing.com/showthread.php?t=30912) and it looks something like this:



(It is currently limited to 5 toons, but i might extend it to 10 if my servers can take the refresh load :-)

The image is quite self explanatory i think, and you can all have a go here: WoW Ratings website
register and create a multi toon list, then go to the wow teams to see the dashboard.

People that already have multi toon sigs should be able to see the portal right away by calling this url: http://wow-ratings.com/index_teams.php?id=<your multi list id>
For example: url: http://wow-ratings.com/index_teams.php?id=Nocturne


In the works:
- Chose which Achievement to display (currently it's "Champion of the Frozen Wastes" by default but you can change that by adding "&achiev=<Id of the achiev> in the url. (check wowhead for the ID)
for example, Northern DungeonMaster is visible here: http://wow-ratings.com/index_teams.php?id=Nocturne&achiev=1288
Done! you can now choose which (dungeon) achievement to display by clicking the 'change' link under the achievement title.

- More Achievements, i currently only listed the Dungeon ones, but will add the rest. (again, need to check the load first)
Done! all existing achievements are now listed

- some icons in the gear list might be missing. trying to find a way around that (if not i'll link directly to the armory images)
Done!

- i'll trya an add a summary tab to see the default team values at a glance: default team iLevel, lastest achievement done as a team etc
- i'll have to check how it all breaks during weekly maintenance and work around it >.<



I'm open to any suggestions and bug reports.
Hope this helps :-)

This tool is AWESOME. I'd love to be able to pick diff. acheivs - love the sig generator. Very cool utils.

This tool is so badass.

WTB more signature space.

Hmmm you need to make it so you can specify the pixel limit (x y) so we can make them fit forum restrictions.

I don't think this is meant for a signature, but instead a tracking utility.

I love the ability to see your gear level on all your toons! Very cool.

Well no shit my comment was in reference to slats signature and for people who would like to display their 10 man teams, or like 2 teams, or even 1 team with 5 chars without having to split it into columns.

Heh, the "no shit" part of the comment makes it sound like it was obvious what you were referring to, when it really wasn't... at all

Ooh, I like!

EDIT: Would be nice if I could still make the list of my team even if armory is giving an error when trying to access one of the toons. Atm I can't add the 3rd toon on my team because of an armory error :S

Thanks for the comments, You should be able to display the achievement you like sometime today

Unfortunately i want to validate the toons before i create the maxi lists, so it's limited to when armory is up.
You will however be able to browse the portal and all the achievement while the armory is down (if you visit the portal at least once before) but won't be able to refresh the data during maintenance.
in short, during maintenance you'll be able to see in the portal the data from last time you refreshed

Hmmm you need to make it so you can specify the pixel limit (x y) so we can make them fit forum restrictions.

Sorry, i'm not going to go there for two reasons: 1/ it's going to be very messy/complex to work in a limited space and readjust all the font sizes/names accordingly
2/ this toon is not solely dedicated to create Sigs for dual-boxing.com, and the size restrictions differ on each.

This tool is so badass.

WTB more signature space.

Unfortunately not in my hands :P (discussed here: http://www.dual-boxing.com/showthread.php?t=31703)

cheers

Oh if its not meant for signitures sorry. The way it lets you generate the 'how to link this image' link just make it feel like it was.

I guess I could find some kind of use for the image in populating a blog or something.

I do like the 'dashboard' portal idea. Where you can load and track teams and track achievements.

I'll try find another sig tool to use that lets me display all my guys.
