We have quite a few addons, which is great, but the problem starts happening with keeping the latest versions, and sometimes people have stuff uploaded to different places, and then hosts go down or change, and some of the stuff is lost. I would like addons to be uploaded to Github or Bitbucket (whichever you prefer, though Github is better for reasons you'll see), as a public repository. It's not too much extra effort, but it ensures that 1. your code is available 2. people want to improve your code, it's easy to do so. It's free. 3. every knows what the latest version is This is the important part: I have also created an organization at Github called "phpV…

Hi guys, One of my goals in moving to Jira was to give addon-developers and users a central place to handle bugs and resolve issues. With Jira, I can now add multiple projects, and add anyone as a point on that project. So basically, if any of you addon-developers (one addon, several), want a place to handle bug reports etc, let me know. I will add you in. I'm trying to make it easier for everyone, rather than people having to register between multiple bug-trackers, it's a bit easier to have it all in one place. Community building! Cheers!

Is it possible to have a flight board that first checks the system time and then displays the following. Flight Number - Departure ICAO - Arrival - Aircraft - Status This would be eye candy, rather than actual status, since most of us have more flights than pilots. The board would display only flights with an arrival time within 2 hours of system time. Flight status would, depending onwhere they are in relation to system time, be on time, arriving, arrived. I suppose something similar could be done for departures, but I'm trying to keep it as simple as possible. Does this sound like something that could be done? Or, maybe I should ask if it has already been done…

Dear All I'm to proudly announce that I have completed a new form of flight booking system for the great PHPvms software. I actually combined 3 Add-ons (simpilot realschedulelite, frontschedule and lorathon random itinerary builder) to create this new method of flight booking. Attached, you can find the file. Thanks Parkho Install: 1. Create SQL table using the one provided in the folder(realschedulelite.sql) 2. Upload the files in the order of the folders into the PHPvms software. .tpl files should go to your skin folder if you don't one the default .tpl changed. 3. Access it by <?php echo url('/FrontSchedules") ;?> 4. Enjoy. Pix: Download…

Nabeel what im trying to do is once a pilot is approved then a forum account is created, I have the creation script i just need to put it in to the trigger which i want to be the approve button, or thinking on further maybe when you click the pilots name i could add a button to create a forum account as well. The easiest option would be to get the script to fire reading the profile name email etc when the approve pilot button is hit, so i suppose the question is what happens now when you double click the accept pilot. Hope i make some kind of sence, Thanks

I am considering developing a new module. The module would be used for admin staff only, and would not be accessible by pilots. The concept is a schedule builder. Many VAs will assign any odd time and aircraft to their flights without a thought, however this module is intended for those who wish to build their schedules in a realistic way. The module would allow the user to add flights onto a timeline by aircraft, so that flights would be organised in an illustrative manner. Each flight will be represented by a block, which shows only basic information such as departure/arrival airports and departure/arrival times, but the block will hold all relevant schedule data such…

Hello everyone, I am in process of finishng up a new class for phpVMS that details statistics for your VA. I have attached a screenie from my development server with the stats that are built so far. Anyone have any suggestions for anything else you think a VA would like to have stats for? Total - Flights, Pilots, and Hours are already built into the phpVMS app. The rest come out of the new class I am building.

Here's something I've released for beta testing at freshJet. It's a pilot calendar, a personal planner allowing pilots to plan what flights they want to fly and when they want to fly them. At the moment, it's fairly basic, and all it really does is allow pilots to add and remove flights from their calendars however I plan on making it book the flights 24 hours before departure time. If there's enough demand I might release it as a module. Preview:

Hello guys, i just got this idea about making exams on for your VA, if any could make it. You make a page and a link on the menu bar for logged in pilots, the page could look like this pic: Of course better made, i just made this very fast in photoshop. Actions: When you press the buy button the system will take ex. $10000 from your pilot account and then if succesfully taken the money it will take you to a exam page, if failed to take money it will make a popup saying that he does not have the required funds for buying this. Exam page: On the exam page you will have some questions, were atleast 6 out of 10 needs to be correct(this should be able to get changed) …

Is it possible to add automatic fuel calculations? Those do not have to be extremely accurate but can be used as a general value. So it goes like that.. if aircraft = MD11 -> Fuelflow x kg/h * hours flighttime + y% extra fuel = required fuel (which should then appear in the briefing) or something similar

Hi guys. Maybe a year ago or so, a bunch of people requested something to spend pilot pay on and I saw it again today. Then the idea was being kicked around to come up with something. Suddenly, the author of the Pilot Shop came back and tossed out a quick release and then vanished. Too bad. I really think it would be great if we could get something similar to the pilot shop going as a module. Not only a pilot shop, but where pilots can buy shares of stock in the company as well as shares of stock in aircraft. The shares of stock could vary daily or what ever with many deciding factors such as active pilots to inactive ratio, pireps being filed etc etc. AS far as stock in…

So I've been asking around for a while now and I've seen others doing the same on how to take pilot data off vatsim and display it on their website. So I googled and finally, after about 3 months of hunting found a script called "VatsimPHP". Its freeware and easy to use. If you dont know much about php, the online manual helps alot.

Okay guys, and gals, I have been up, down, inside and out of this forum since I purchased PHPVMS from www.fivedev.net, and I'd have to say I have yet to see a post anywhere that asks or shows how people go about creating schedules to insert into the MyAdmin panel of php/VMS. I'd have to say that when we were using php/VMS on a free server, it was very hard to come up with an easier way to create a schedule. Included in this post is a link to the file you need to make this process alot easier for you to create hundreds or thousands of schedules at a time before you convert it over to .csv How it works: You need Microsoft Excel 2003 or greater to use this (as I'm sure mo…

What Is It?- The PilotShop is a free, open source module that will allow your pilots to put their money to good use to purchase an array of items! The idea is to take the PhpVms's finacial system and allow the pilot to use his/her money made from flying to purchase anything ranging from training,ratings,badges etc. . The pilot shop will have an AJAX interface that will display the items added through the Administration panel through different store fronts which pilots can view. Idea applied- So say I was starting a low budget regional airliner operationg out of KACT(Waco regional). Now when my pilots join they are conisdered as active and can start flying flights accor…

Does anyone know if it's possible to have a passenger boarding thing on the front page? I'm kinda weak and only know basic HTML and some CSS I guess. I can edit things on a small level, so I don't think I can figure this one out on my own. Thanks.

Hi everyone, I am currently in the proccess of creating a new flight map that looks cleaner and nicer than the google one. It even automatically resizes just to show the routes that have been flown. To use it, I need to find a way to make a list of DEPICAO-ARRICAO,DEPICAO-ARRICAO,DEPICAO-ARRICAO,DEPICAO-ARRICAO. Example: KTPA-KMCO,KMCO-KMHT,KMHT-KMDW,KMDW-KLAS Then, I need to insert that info into an image tag. Example: <img src="http://www.gcmap.com/map?P=KTPA-KMCO,KMCO-KMHT,KMHT-KMDW,KMDW-KLAS&PM=pemr%3Adiamond7%2B%25U&MS=bm&DU=mi" border="0" title="Flight Map" alt="Flight Map" /> How can I go about calling up the info, putting in the KMCO-KTPA,K…

I've been saying for quite some time (probably almost 2 years) in the VAForum thread that it needs rewriting and that I'll do it soon, so I had better make a start. I'm posting here to get an idea of what features people expect to see in a Forum module; what would make it worth using over an external forum such as phpBB etc. My thoughts so far are based on being an update of the current VAForum: Admin in the phpVMS admin section Permissions by pilot group Board categories, visibility set by pilot group Editable signature fields Per-user timezone for post time display Use of a WYSIWYG editor Codes to display useful things (latest posts) elsewhere on the site Indi…

Hello, This script is going well, but I have hit a brick wall for the time being. It is near impossible to include BOTH the phpBB Config files AND the phpVMS config files. This is because both of those config files contain further includes. No matter where you put this forum registration script, the sub-includes will always produce an error because they are missing. eg. AutoReg.php is in /home/ ppBB's config is in /home/forum/includes/ when including phpBB's file, it wants something in includes/, but because it is in /home/, it looks in /home/includes/ which is not correct. If anybody has advice on overcoming the issue then I would be grateful and release the scrip…
