  1. FlightAware has schedules available through their XML API - https://flightaware....cial/flightxml/

    Yes sir, I'm not technologically gifted enough to run them and have attempted to figure it out in the past with no real luck. Have asked a few people to help give me some pointers with it but most do not have the time to teach it, and with everything I've got going on too I understand that and don't have as much time to sit and learn it!

  2. I just tried to refresh them using - http://wnvirtual.org...esh_pilot_stats

    They did not update like you said but there was also no error thrown, unless you have all error reports turned off. What differences are there between the two sites? Are pilot ids and such all the same?

    Weird... It works great on the other side! I don't have error reports off as far as I know, and the only differences is that the beta website runs with the prefix of "beta" while my main one is different. Same setups, and haven't had problems with anything else installing as long as I change the prefix myself! Shouldn't have anything to do with the fact that I use 3 digit ID's on the main, and 4 digit on the beta, right?

  3. Hello,

    Not sure if anyone hops on here anymore but I can not get the table to populate for my life. My beta website has it working just fine but my main one just will not run it.

    My website link: Click Here

    Have the latest version from your Github, have both .tpl and .php files in there just in case, and have made sure all of the .php files reflect the correct table prefix fix as we use a different prefix...

    Any ideas?

  4. Anyone else having trouble setting their forum avatar on these phpVMS forums? Accidentally deleted mine tonight and was attempting to reset to a new one, and keep getting the message "Failed to set a new photo". Made sure that my picture is larger than 200px, tried both jpeg and png, and meet the file size requirements... Any ideas?

    Thanks!

  5. For some reason as i told you at the email i am not able to replicate the problem as i get a wrong aircraft error

    Steps i followed is

    http://wnvirtual.org...x.php/schedules

    select a schedule

    Click on generate simbrief

    Thanks for the help! I hadn't been going through to try and get briefing packets this way, and by you bringing up this way I was able to fix the aircraft codes, update my links one more time, and then finally get it to work again. Thank you! I had coded a dispatch module into the pilot center, and that's how I had been doing that in the past, and not the way that you described by going through the schedules. So, thank you again!

    For anyone else encountering the issue - MAKE SURE that your aircraft codes match up 100% with what they are in SimBrief. My issue came from having my aircraft entered as 733, 735, 73H, and 738. They needed to be B733, B735, B737, B738. Also, make sure that all of your links are correct and you should be good to go!

    Thank you for this great module!

  6. Hello,

    As requested by Baggelis, I am creating this post. I have the SimBrief addon installed and working just fine on my beta web server, tested many times with all of our fleet types and different city pairs. I am recieveing this error that I have seen posted in the forums before via search, but still found that no clear solution had been found. Wanted to see if we could find a solution!

    Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Exception' with message 'DateTime::__construct() [datetime.--construct]: Failed to parse time string (@) at position 0 (@): Unexpected character' in /home2/wnvirtua/public_html/lib/skins/vWN_3.00/Output.tpl:81 Stack trace: #0 /home2/wnvirtua/public_html/lib/skins/vWN_3.00/Output.tpl(81): DateTime->__construct('@') #1 /home2/wnvirtua/public_html/core/classes/TemplateSet.class.php(255): include('/home2/wnvirtua...') #2 /home2/wnvirtua/public_html/core/classes/TemplateSet.class.php(167): TemplateSet->getTemplate('Output.tpl', false, true, false) #3 /home2/wnvirtua/public_html/core/classes/Template.class.php(81): TemplateSet->showTemplate('Output.tpl') #4 /home2/wnvirtua/public_html/core/modules/Output/Output.php(7): Template::show('Output.tpl') #5 /home2/wnvirtua/public_html/core/classes/MainController.class.php(218): Output->index() #6 /home2/wnvirtua/public_html/index.php(60): MainController::RunAllActions(Array, Array) #7 {main} thrown in /hom e2/wnvir tua/public_html/lib/skins/vWN_3.00/Output.tpl on line 81
    

    I do have it installed and working correctly on my beta web server, and it doesn't work when transferring the files and updating the links from the beta to the main. I did notice that the beta website is running phpVMS v2.1.935 while the main website is running v2.1.936. Does this have anything to do with it? Any tips?

    Thank you all, and blue skies!

  7. All the map issues look like they are javascript related to me. I have attached a couple of pics from Firebug that show a couple of the errors. Looking at your source on the page I would take a good look at the order in which you are loading jQuery. I have run into similar issues using bootstrap, which it looks like you are using as well. The jQuery version that bootstrap uses will not support some of the code written for phpVMS and you will need to make adjustments to your phpvms.js file to support them, especially the map features.

    As far as your Screenshots error, I am guessing that there is some discrepancy between what is in the screenshot database and what is actually in the /pics folder that holds the actual images.

    Wow, you all are GREAT! Thank you. I will begin looking through those and see what I can do. I believe I saw in another post that on your GitHub you have kind of updated a few things that may help, too? I'm not very "knowledgeable" with the JS side of things... but I will look into re-ordering them and see what I can work out. Thank you!

    Taking one look at your site now and you have major Javascript conflicts. May I suggest looking at the link below and look at my post and give that a try. Any issues then report back on this forum

    http://forum.phpvms....o-route-passed/

    Awesome, thanks! I tried it with just the maps page so far and no dice, but am looking around some more before asking any more questions. Thank you!

  8. I've been searching around here for the last 16-24 hours for the answers to these issues, but still haven't quite found what I am looking for. I had been building a website on a beta server, and just moved it over to the main one yesterday and we are loving it so far! Unfortunately, I am running into a few errors that I haven't been able to track down and fix...

    http://wnvirtual.org/index.php/Airports - I can not get any live flights to show up here as they did on v2 of our website. We use SmartCARS so it usually works just fine, but I can not get it to do anything at all but sit there.

    http://wnvirtual.org/index.php/pireps/view/2216 - Route Map does not show... :/

    http://wnvirtual.org/index.php/Screenshots - No clue where to start on this one... Worked fine on the beta website!

    http://wnvirtual.org/index.php/Airlinemap - Developed by Crazy Creatives, this is THE coolest map out there! It worked fine on web v2, but did not work on the beta website and I thought it may "magically" begin working when uploaded to the main server. I have emailed Crazy Creatives about it too, but figured the information may help solve one or all of the problems above. The map just won't show up at all...

    I'm thinking it is a javascript error? But not sure where the error is taking place or how to troubleshoot that. I'm usually pretty good at finding what's going wrong and fixing it, but in this case, I'm just lost.

    Thank you for your help!

  9. Tory,

    Have a look through the tread for that module. My foggy memory is right, that was answered somewhat in there. I'm in KCOS also.

    Rodney

    Thanks Rodney, it looks as though it isn't possible :wacko: I'll figure out a different way. Very nice, KCOS all of the way! I'm not in town, but have seen a lot of bad weather has been moving through CO, stay safe!

  10. Hello,

    I know Simpilot isn't around much, but I have a question regarding creating a bank of questions for the Exam Center module. I know how to create questions, know how to create questions, and know how to create exams, but is there a way that I can create say like 50 questions in a bank for a certain exam, and have the exam randomly pull 10 from that bank to present to the pilot?

    Thanks!

  11. Go to core/common/PilotData.class.php file and find this (in my file it's in line 219);

    public static function getLatestPilots($count=10)
    {
    $sql = 'SELECT * FROM '.TABLE_PREFIX.'pilots
    ORDER BY `pilotid` DESC
    LIMIT '.$count;
    
    return DB::get_results($sql);
    }
    

    and replace it with this:

    public static function getLatestPilots($count=10)
    {
    $sql = 'SELECT * FROM '.TABLE_PREFIX.'pilots
    ORDER BY `joindate` DESC
    LIMIT '.$count;
    
    return DB::get_results($sql);
    }
    

    Thank you so much!!! B)

  12. I know, I know. I should use the search function and try and find my answer. I have been sitting here for an hour trying to find it, and I just can't seem to figure out what words I need to put together to make this thing work...

    Here is what I am trying to do. Currently, I have a "Latest Pilots" list on my homepage that is limited to show the 5 most recent pilots by their ID. Well, we change our pilot's IDs when they join to fit into the hub, and I would rather the "Latest Pilots" list to be sorted by date instead of by ID. We just changed webhosts so before this worked fine, and now... I don't remember what I did or where to look to make that happen. Any links are appreciated, and if someone is able to type up a quick tutorial, I would be very grateful!

    Thank you! B)

  13. I had asked the same question a while back, and pretty much got the answer of "No possible way". However, my new idea would be to re-assign the PIREPs to another "pilot" who would actually be an inactive bot, that would retain all of the hours but allow me to open up pilot ID slots. Ya know?

    Anyone have any ideas for either of the ideas? (If your answer is "no possible way", please keep it to yourself as this is now a brainstorming post and not one for naysayers!) ;):D

  14. They use their logo as a favicon, their colours, and their ICAO code "DLH"

    And for above, I'm fairly sure it can be argued that you can use colours as a copyright infringement - especially if it's an obvious attempt at imitation.

    The favicon yes, the ICAO code no because you can not copyright a group of letters unless those letters are in a specific logo, which again, would be a copyright on the logo and not the actual letters used. Since it is text on the website, it is not an infringement. This whole copyright debate has happened before on these forums. A quick search will bring that up for you! A company can not own a hex code or a part of the alphabet!

  15. to be honnest i don't see anny copywright infrictions so why do they need permission?

    Using their logos and colours by the looks of it.

    Looks fine to me! The only place I see a logo is on their favicon, and you can't copyright colors. You can copyright colors in a certain shape (also known as a logo), but that would apply to the logo itself and not the actual colors used.

    Welcome to the community DLH104! :) Wishing you the best of luck with your new VA!

  16. Interesting, not seen this done before. Do you have an automated installer for it? I assume you basically have to replace the existing fsx images so it'd be good to keep a backup of those.

    Hello, I can make an AutoInstaller for them but its pretty basic as I'm not very good with that side of programming. It would install the new one, but my installer wouldn't backup the old one anywhere. However I could package the AutoInstallers with directions on how to backup the default folder before installation!
