Updated to 2.0 3/1/2012 - Now includes pagination ScreenshotCenter 2.0 phpVMS module to create a screenshot uploading and display system for your phpVMS based VA. Developed by: simpilot www.simpilotgroup.com Developed on: phpVMS 2.1.940 php 5.2.11 mysql 5.0.51 apache 2.2.11 Install: -Download the attached package. -unzip the package and place the files as structured in the distribution in your root phpVMS install. -use the screenshotcenter.sql file to create the tables needed in your sql database using phpmyadmin or similar. -make sure that the file has created three tables in your database - screenshots, screenshots_comments, and secreenshots_ratings. Create a link for your pilots to get to the ScreenshotCenter <?php echo url('/Screenshots'); ?> -Be sure that the "pics" folder ends up in the root as it is structured in the download and has write permissions. -Templates are generic and will need to be skinned to your site, they do how ever depend on the native phpVMS "error" and "success" divisions, you need to have them in your css or replace them with your own. There may also be a few odd html tags in the template files as I stripped this out of my VA, I had never really intended for it to be released so I never made a plain template structure. Functions Available. To display the newest approved screenshot on your site: <?php Screenshots::show_newest_screenshot(); ?> To display the newest screenshot by a certain pilot on your site: <?php Screenshots::get_pilots_newscreenshot('pilotid'); ?> To display a random approved screenshot on your site: <?php Screenshots::show_random_screenshot(); ?> The links to upload, rate, and add comments are only available to logged in members. The screenshot approval link in the gallery is only available to administrators.

DO NOT un-assign this pilot as an admin unless you have at least one more admin assigned, you will not be able to log back into the center as an admin. I am still working on a check that will not let you do this but wanted to get the beta out. 4 - There are two exams already in the database to give some guidance on how things work.

TOPPilot beta 1.0 phpVMS module to extract monthly flight statistics for individual pilots from your phpVMS based virtual airline. Developed by: simpilot www.simpilotgroup.com Developed on: phpVMS 2.0.874 php 5.2.11 mysql 5.0.51 apache 2.2.11 Included files: readme.txt top_flight.sql TopPilot.php TpPilotData.class.php tp_index.tpl tp_previous.tpl Install: -Download the attached package. -unzip the package and place the files as structured in your root phpVMS install. -use the top_flights.sql file to create the table needed in your sql database using phpmyadmin or similar. -after the initial install point your browser to yoursite/index.php/TopPilot/refresh_pilot_stats one time. This will populate the database table with any data available. -to view the main TopPilot index create a link yoursite/index.php/TopPilot -everytime a pirep is filed the module will recalculate the pilot stats and update the database There are three main display functions within the TopPilotData class that you can configure to use in various parts of your site. Flights flown - TopPilotData::top_pilot_flights($month, $year, 5) Hours flown - TopPilotData::top_pilot_hours($month, $year, 5) Miles flown - TopPilotData::top_pilot_miles($month, $year, 5) $month should be the two digit month id of the month you want data from – ie 06 = June $year is the four digit year you are pulling – ie 2010 5 – can be changed to how many records you want returned. Excluding PIREPS that are not accepted yet. TopPilot.php line 52. Uncomment the trailing section and the module will not include unapproved PIREPS. Doing this will cause the module not to display any newly accepted PIREPS in the TopPilot data listings until after another PIREP is filed although you can refresh the stats at anytime using – yoursite/index.php/TopPilot/refresh_pilot_stats Although this script carries no limits of use a link back to www.simpilotgroup.com would be greatly appreciated!

EVENTBooking beta 1.0 phpVMS module to create and manage fly-in events for your phpVMS based virtual airline. Developed by: simpilot www.simpilotgroup.com Developed on: phpVMS 2.1.921 php 5.2.11 mysql 5.0.51 apache 2.2.11 Install: -Download the attached package. -unzip the package and place the files as structured in your root phpVMS install. -use the event.sql file to create the tables needed in your sql database using phpmyadmin or similar. -create a link in your admin navigation panel I put it on line 54 in admin/lib/layout/header.tpl <li><a href="<?php echo SITE_URL?>/admin/index.php/events_admin">Events</a></li> -create a link in your main site nav bar <li><a href="<?php echo url('/events') ?>">Events</a></li> This is a VERY BASIC BETA version of this module. It only includes basic functionality and is currently under further development. It is only being released in this BETA form for community input on further options. The Slot Limit determines how many open slots are available to pilots for signing up beyond the slots that are already reserved. - I would suggest not editing this after you have created the event and have signups. The Slot Interval is how many minutes are between each Slot Reservation. This is not editable once you set the number in the creation of the event.

You can post your feature requests here. Check out the about page (link above), those are the basic features that will be included.FSACARs and potentially FSPassengers support will also be included, as add-ons.Thanks!

I've been thinking for some time now about making a search engine for virtual airlines, but before starting development I'd like to have some feedback what I have in mind is a phpvms based site where VA's can register and upload their schedules file. From this the site then knows where the VA flies and with which aircraft. Apart of this there would be a small questionnaire to fill out about the features they provide eg is there a jumpseat system, type of simulator, cargo or pax, how many minimum hours, free to fly any aircraft or restricted by rank... you know, the kind of stuff that really matters to a pilot who chooses an airline I haven't found anything like this on the web. IMHO vacentral isn't useful for pilots who look for an airline and I personally had no registrants from there. From my experience and reading the forums, pilots select an airline based on the airports/region and aircraft they can operate at that va, and of course the general "idea" of the airline.. not whether it has a certain rank in relation to other va's I personally think this could be a useful site both for va's as well as pilots, but maybe im the only one Let me know!

What's everyones favourite airport to spot at? I am currently situated near Toronto Pearson which has many available spotting locations. Just curious to see where people like spot! My experience at CYYZ: @flightspotphoto www.flightspot.net

I think it would be really cool to get postcards from phpVMS users - I can post them up on the site. I know there's a worldwide user base, it'd be cool to see it, though It can be from your country or your town or whatever. I'll make a giant mural and post them online! This project is coming up on 5 years almost! Anyone interested? I'll post an address to send them to!

Is anyone using ArrowChat, and able to get it to use the phpvms database? - http://www.arrowchat.com

Does anyone use SMF 2 and is the SSI to show latest post on your frontpage_,main.php? I had a code that worked years ago, that doesn't work anymore. I am downgrading from IPB. Now I remember why I left SMF...lol I can't seem to get it too work. As shown in the SSI example I have this code on the top of the <html> <?php require("/home/flyakaco/public_html/forums/SSI.php"); ?> and have this to display the latest post, on my frontpage_main.php <?php ssi_recentPosts(); ?> I get an error and my site is all whacked. Fatal error: Call to undefined function ssi_recentPosts() in /home/flyakaco/public_html/lib/skins/flyalaska_1.0/frontpage_main.php on line 263

Spotted this and thought it would be of interest. The site its self is, frankly, awesome! http://simbrief.com/home/

Hello all i was woundering what are your hobby's outside the flightsim world. mine is keeping snakes i currently have 2 young Boa constrictors. when they are old enouph they will be bred and then i will get myself some more constrictors

I have been experiencing an onslaught of registrations from members with names in all capitals that all resemble each other on a number of sites I manage. I am not completely sure what they are up to but I do not think it is anything that would be considered beneficial to your virtual airline. They most prevalent seem to be: ADEREMI MARTINS BELLO OLUJIMI EZEKIEL FATIMIRO NURAIN IDOWU BELLO LATEEF AKINOLA IBRAHIM IGHODALE NELSON OKHADE YETUNDE O ADIATU IGHODALO NELSON OKHADE TEMIDAYO PAUL AMOSUN SUNDAY RACHEAL KOLO AL MUNIRU AJIBOLA OYELOLA They all register with various VATSIM id's, none of which are legit, various hub choices, and various countries. As fast as they are deleted they are registered again. IP blocking is useless as they are using proxy services or spoofing. Most sites also get a response to every email sent to the pilot, ie - the registration and approval notices. Most of the responses are just a copy of the email that went out, but some do include the classic "THANK YOU SIR!!!" I have yet to find any of them trying to gain access to the sites beyond that of a regular user. If anyone else is experiencing this and has had an issue with site security or some type of exploit used by any of these users please share it with the community so we can apply the proper patch to avoid any future issues.

Anyone have a suggestion where I can rent a TS3 server in the US?

What does your Pilot Center look like? I need some inspiration.... Thanks, Edmund K.

Hello community, I been thinking of build an IFS or in flight entertainment system for pilots, which can be used to view videos listen to music and chat. I wanted to see what would be the demand for it if any. So am starting this topic to see how many of you would actually use something like that or how many would like to have it. Feedback is most appreciated.

My site got hacked aswell My site is based on joomla and phpvms i would like to mention how important it is to update your software, i am writing this so that few members that are not so expirienced with code and website can see that also expirenced users can get hacked Thats my 2cents of advice

Charter Flight System (Using PHP-VMS defult Temps and Modules) [updated V1.1.0] By Reza Farzam Hello dear webmaster; To be honest, just noticed that this madule is a developed version of the PHP-VMS defult temps and madules which used in order to add and edit SCHEDULES from the Admin Panel . So first of all I am going to admire the PHP-VMS Board! We all know that there is already a pay-module owned by PHP-VMS Board that worths more than any charter modules! But I believe this Charter Module is the Best Free-Module ever! I think this module covers 80 precent of your demands! This module works by giving access to your pilots to add and edit the limited number of flights. These flights will be added to an specific airline which Its name is “Charter Flight†and its code is “CHâ€! These flights can ONLY be ADD or EDIT by its owner (Specific Pilot)! and also ADMIN of site! Means that all pilots have a list of their own flights and have no access to others’! Inorder to keep this activity onder control of ADMIN, I put the range limitation for flight numbers! So we have work to do! I appreciate all of you if help to improve this module ____________________________________ UPDATED! change log : - graphics added and images attached - instructions modified - module modified - .tpl files modified - error templates added Charter_Flight_System_v1.1.0by.Reza.Farzamupdated.zip

PilotLogins_V1.0 What this module does, it captures every login that your pilots login and it enters into the database table. Even you can view all login in the admin panel with the JSON Table. This module will be handy for all phpVMS users, so you can ban all IP's that the pilots used. Created Under: http://creativecommo...s/by-nc-sa/3.0/ Completed By: Vansers Thanks To: lorathon (For Helping to understand, and fixing the SQL Query to grab the pilot's info from another table) I take no credit from this module, this module is just to help you guys and you are free to expand it, but please respect to whoever completed it. Screenshot of Module: How To Install: 1) Download the file that is attached here... 2) Unzip the file... 3) Upload/Import the SQL file called phpvms_pilotlogins.sql into the database that your VMS install sits. 4) Upload the files same as the structure as your phpvms files. 5) Go to "core/modules/Login/Login.php" after the following lines..... (Line 131) PilotData::updateLogin($pilotid); After that code, add the following code to Login.php PilotLoginsData::AddLogin($pilotid); This function will run and it will grab the login info when they login 6) Then, go to admin/templates/core_navigation.tpl..... After the line... <li><a href="<?php echo adminurl('/pilotadmin/viewpilots');?>">View All Pilots</a></li> Add this... <?php } if(PilotGroups::group_has_perm(Auth::$usergroups, FULL_ADMIN)) { ?> <li><a href="<?php echo adminurl('/PilotLogins/');?>">View All Pilot Logins</a></li> Then your done! Login, and then head to Admin, and go to View All Pilot Logins. Then your done! ------------------------------------------------------- Also, I have a request, if you could let me know if it really works, if it is capturing your ip address correctly, compare it from yours in the list, to that link. http://www.whatismyip.com/ Let me know if it works. If you have any questions or requests (sometimes it may be filled or not), let me know! Enjoy the new tool. Removed:[attachment=689:PilotLogin_V1.0.zip] Download Here

Hello i have a problem that has been bugging me for a long and while flying on VATSIM. I have been unable to use VOICE on my laptop in FSX. It starting to really bug me now, because its not realistic to use text only and makes it hard for the controller. Basically i can transmit audio but i cannot hear it, this also applies to other programs too not only FSX, lets say i want to skype with someone and watch a YouTube video, nope i cant do that. So to put simply i cannot multitask with audio between two different programs. This is really really starting to annoy me now as i have been deal with this for months and months, please help.

What's with the high volume of notifications lately? Has anyone else been getting these? I imagine that this forum license has expired meaning the spam blocker is also expired. All these usernames have zero post and most of them joined yesterday. It's annoying!

Hey everyone I'm currently starting a virtual airline and I'm wondering if you can rate and critique these liverys. The harder you crutique the better. And thanks for your consideration.

Good Afternoon/Morning, For a period of time now, I have been thinking about a Virtual Airline Awards System. This is something that I was looking into creating, in a large scale. I am looking for your feedback, and if you think this is worth the time investing. Let me sum up my Idea: Basically, I want to have a third-party independent website that is coded in a way that every semester/quarter a group of virtual airlines are nominated by the public to receive various awards. These awards will vary from Best Fleet Design, to Most Active Staff. All of the awards require nominations, and final decision by judges(Therefore nothing that is recorded by phpvms in number, such as most landings, most pilots, etc...). Once these virtual airlines are nominated through the website, a group of judges shall come together to grade each virtual airline 1-10 in each award category. When a virtual airline, receives an award they will be put on the Front Page of this website(publicity), as well as receive a badge they can put on their website. I am looking forward to hear your suggestions and feedback. Also, If anyone would like to help out on this project please be sure to pm me. Ryan Rinaldi

Joeri, I have shown nothing but the utmost respect for you on these forums and even helped you solve problems with various users on these forums. What would cause you to disrespect myself, and my business in this way? You are one of the people that is looked up to the most on these forums. But the main thing I see you doing is bashing other peoples work now, and embarrassing people for all of the phpVMS community to see. You obviously do not agree with the service/price and therefore should contact me directly (PM or even the email that I supplied in the original post) and share your comment instead of attempting to publicly "rip apart" yet another post on phpVMS Forums. I do thank you for showing interest in FSPremier however. I hope that you will think through your next few negative remarks before posting them to myself, or any other member on these forums. Thank you.

To show all the landing stats currently in the datbase create a link to www.yoursite.com/index.php/TouchdownStats To show a limited number of stats from your database create a link to www.yoursite.com/index.php/TouchdownStats/top_landings/10 The "10" can be changed to however many you would like to see The most useful method of the data class would be to use TouchdownStatsData::get_all_stats() and TouchdownStatsData::get_stats('10') You can use these inside of one of your templates to bring back the data you want and display it as you wish. An example to fill a variable with data for use in your template you can use $this->set->('stats', TouchdownStatsData::get_stats('10')); in your module to pass the data to the template within the $stats variable. Then in your template use the $stats variable to do what you wish with the display.

There have been a number of comments in the shoutbox regarding the delayed approval of posts and comments from new users. Unfortunately, the forum's spam blocker has expired and the forum is being overcome by the spam posts and new spam members. The only way that we could combat this at first was to lock all new members down to have to have their first 5 posts approved by a moderator prior to allowing all the posts to be automatically visible. This was a valid solution for a while but at this point it is very time consuming to dig through all the new posts and comments that need approval, especially when the topic titles are not on point. I have attached a few images to show what I am speaking of, cap1 is the first page of unapproved new topics, and cap2 is the last page of unapproved new topics. Yes, it is currently 379 pages long, which is just over the last two weeks. (379 pages x 10 per page = 3,790 items that need to be moderated) I can not speak for other moderators, but I do not have the time, or patience for that matter, to dig through these posts to find what is legit and what is not. I will offer that if you have a post that needs approval and can email me a link to the post directly, I will approve the post for you when I can. This may take a little while as I do not spend all my time patrolling this forum. DO NOT send me a PM here in the forum. I receive many every day including from spam users and have quit reading and responding to them quite some time ago. email: david <at> simpilotgroup <dot> com

Unfortunately, i haven't seen any post where we can show our cockpit sets. So, let me start... It consists of two displays, the Siatek Pro Flight Yoke System, a Samsung Galaxy Tab II 10,1" as an FMC (using a specific application), two keyboards and one kneeboard which can be laced on my foot in order to help me write down the notes i want during my flight.

im sure someone has a PPL so when getting fuel from the truck or pump how does it measure the quantity like is it pounds, liters, gallons or whatever and also does anybody know a good place to find the price of fuel currently at an airfield?

I just saw this website... Do you know anything about that? http://www.exploit-db.com/exploits/24960/

Hello, When I receive a pirep from my pilots, the system don't do the good calculation for the fuel used. (See image) I have in my local config file the fuel in Kg. Look in image the flight details, 5.1€ unit, I suppose that this is for Kg. The fuel cost is more than the gross revenue... Can someone help me? Thanks, Alex

Is Angel Air VA still around? If not I'm looking for another VA to join.

Hi, this question is the most asked one and with the SimBrief improvements we have in v7 this matter become critical ... Here you can find the basics about the logic and how to setup your fares/subfleets/flights properly. 1. Main Fares You can define your fares in admin/fares. These will be your main fare types, which will then be used in your subfleets or flights. The main idea here is to define only the basics, so you can change them later when needed. Think fares like the seats in your plane (or cargo space), which can be sold as tickets. They are not in flight services or extended service types like WiFi, Hot Meals, Extra Snacks, Economy Premium or Economy Basic, they are just Economy seats you have. So lets start; Economy (Y) Business (J) First Class (F) Cargo (CGO) These are the main fare groups commonly found in airliners, so start with Economy. When you are at admin/fares click Add New, and enter the info as described below Code : Y Name : Economy Type : Passenger ( for Cargo Fares type must be Cargo as expected ) Price : 100 Cost : 25 Capacity : EMPTY / NULL ( Leave it empty, do NOT try writing EMPTY to that field ) Notes : Fill as you wish Active : Checked and click save ... In simple terms we will gain 75 Usd/Eur/Pound (currency comes from your settings) from each passenger 'cause there is an operating cost of a seat. Repeat the steps for rest if you wish. Why we left Capacity empty ? I will explain it later but for now we are just defining our base fares, so no need to have capacities here. 2. SubFleet Fares Assuming you already have at least one subfleet, which is mandatory in v7. We can explain their logic later if necessary. Head up to admin/fleets and click edit one of your subfleets, or just create one and save (so you will be able to see the details). Scroll down a little bit and you will see Fares section there and it is probably empty. This is the area where we "assign" and "adjust" our main fares which will be used for this subfleet. Click on Select Fare, you will see your defined main fares there. Select Economy and click Add. Now the fare is assigned to this subfleet and you will see it above values like below; Name : Economy Code : Y Type : Passenger Capacity : inherited () Price : inherited (100) Cost : inherited (25) This is where v7 magic begins ... I will use an Airbus A320 with only economy class seats as my basic aircraft type. Click on the inherited text under capacity column and enter 180 there. Right now, when you use any member of this subfleet, you will have 180 seats ready for being sold with a price tag of 100 currency and it will cost you 25 currency to operate that seat. If you want to change the price of your tickets or adjust the operating costs of your seats for this subfleet you can follow the same steps for price and cost. If you do so, your ticket prices and/or costs will be changed ONLY for this subfleet. While adjusting prices you can just use pure values like 150 or percentages like 125%. It is up to you how you change the value. Just do not use percentages on capacities, it really does not make any sense Ok, passenger capacity and price/cost was easy ... How about having some cargo space/fare for a passenger plane. They are not designed to carry bigger loads like freighters but they do have some space under their belly, which is mainly used for carrying out passenger baggages, why not use the remaining space to earn some more money ? Normally passenger planes are mostly limited by the cargo hold's (the name of the cargo area) volume but since we do not have any volume checking capability in simulator and phpvms, we will stick only on the weights here. Just add your pre-defined cargo fare to your subfleet like you added the passenger fares. So, the logic is simple; Your Cargo fare should be big enough to hold all your passenger baggages. Then calculation is simple too 180 (our pax capacity) * 35 lbs (our non-charter baggage weight : check admin/setting simbrief for default values) = 6300 lbs should be your minimum Cargo Fare capacity. If you want to carry some paid cargo, then you need to increase this amount up to a point where it does not passes your aircrafts Maximum Zero Fuel Weight when you have full pax on board. I know this may sound a little bit strange but this is how real thing works too If you know your aircraft specification, then you can calculate your possible max cargo capacity by below formula; Maximum Cargo Fare Capacity = MZFW - DOW - ( max pax seat capacity * pax weight ) DOW is Dry Operating Weight (Operating Empty Weight), it is the weight of your aircraft without fuel, passengers and cargo but with crew, catering and airline stuff loaded already. Anyway, if you do not know your DOW and MZFW then just add some space more to the above calculated value, make it like 8000 lbs. So you will have 1700 lbs free space to carry some cargo after taking all the passenger baggages for a fully loaded flight. Please note; If your PhpVms weight settings are KG, just convert the amount you found to kilograms before adjusting the cargo fare capacity. Just another note for SimBrief Form; The cargo fares of passenger planes will show you the Maximum Available capacity, though we named it max in short terms but this may lead confusions. So when you have passengers and their baggage, your cargo fare capacity will be reduced by the weight of the total passenger baggage weight. Therefore it is not the capacity you defined anymore, it is just what is left behind for you to load additional cargo. If you see negative values there, this is a clear indication that your cargo fare capacity is not enough to hold the passenger baggages . And please keep in mind that SimBrief form uses your aircraft, meaning it reads your subfleet fares. It is a flight plan, do not expect it to read the fares of a flight, it is directly related to the aircrafy you want to generate a flight plan. 3. Flight Fares Technically you really do not need to add fares to flights, but the logic is same as adding fares to subfleets. If you want to change the ticket price/cost of a fare for a specific flight you can do it here. Imagine having a special flight with doubled ticket prices, then just add the fare you want to adjust, click on the price or cost columns inherited text and enter 200%. Now you will have doubled price/cost for this flight only I higly suggest you to not to define capacities at main fares and not adjust capacities at flight fares. This really makes life easier, in real world operations we do not define the capacity in fares and for flights (unless there is a special need). Capacity always comes from the aircraft (here in phpvms it comes from the subfleet) and when we (as OCC or Dispatchers) do change the aircraft of a flight or decide to do it with another aircraft other than planned by commercial planning or schedule planning departments of the airline, ticket sale systems just get the new aircraft info and use its capacity to stop the ticket sales automatically if it reaches the max seats. Things do NOT work like the real world here, so if you have a 180 seat aircraft but define a main fare with 219 seat capacity or edit a flight's fare and set capacity to 239 there, results will not be nice And always remember, fare logic follows below order; Flight (has highest priority, when you change thigns here, they will be used) Subfleet / Aircraft (medium priority over fare) Fare (lowest priority and gets overwritten by the ones above) I think this is enough for basic setup and understanding the logic how fares work in PhpVms v7. Safe flights for now, will post some more info about different topics later.

Web Tip #1: Use PHP to display the copyright year on your webpage, don't use plain html you will forget to update it. Replace © 2014 Redwood Virtual With © <?php echo date ('Y'); ?> Redwood Virtual Remember, if this is on an static .html page, you must rename the extension to .php. .tpl in phpVMS is fine because you are displaying content within a module created with a .php extension.
