Support
[hr]value[/hr]I use my released mods daily, if I find an issue with them or add features for myself I will release updates. If there are significant bugs or simple feature requests I will do my best to release fixes. Some of my mods rely on fetching data from 3rd party websites, due to the unreliable results, my mods will require users to troubleshoot for themselves if they find the addon is not working for them specifically. I am offering my personal mods that work ok for me for you to use, I am sorry I do not have time to troubleshoot many user specific issues. Thank you for your understanding.

Heya Gryphon,

I'm currently having a problem where if a character does not have a secondary skill trained, the cron job is crapping out on line 68. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!!!

[apokphp]

I have same issue as many others about armory not updated (just the spinning circle).

I did get the data once I ran a manual cron...but I made a change in my status on attendance, and all the data that showed, disappeared...I got the infamous spinning circle again.

As a result, it renders the hack unusable IMO.

I can not reproduce this error. It seems to be installing ok for everyone else.

I left this message in the other WoW calendar thread, but now I realize this might be the newer, most robust version...

I run a board for the NHL 09 video game's EASHL mode (basically an MMO for hockey, where a team of up to 50 can get together to play online hockey games). I need something to organize team play times. Would this be possible to easily adapt for this game? Can I have multiple private versions of these calendars that each team can run?

Thanks in advance for anyone's help.

This event calendar is pretty much tied into World of Warcraft and the character profiles the developers have available online which get imported into the events.

Yeah, I took a look and it is tied in a ton to the game itself. I'll take a look at the code and see if I can modify it to work with the teams I have set up on my site instead of external roster stuff.

I am guessing the long retreive times for Awaiting Armory data import... is still an issue?

[Gryphon]

I am not sure what you mean by long retrieval times? Imports are done every 10 minutes (05, 15, 25, 35, 45, 55). If they take longer than that, the Armory may unreachable.
