  1. <?php MainController::run('touchdownstats', 'top_landings', '5'); ?>
  2. How are you including it on your frontpage? something like <?php MainController::run('touchdownstats', 'index'); ?> should be all you need if the data is there.
  3. Hi, Sorry for the delayed response, I have been away and only watching for support tickets off of my site, in the future you will get support much faster for paid modules from that method. If you can get in touch with me and let me know what hosting panel you are working with I will help you get the cron up and running.
  4. Thanks! - There have been a few really nice integrations of the system so far, seems to be serving the purpose it was designed for.
  5. With the current system the only thing you can really do is create a seperate airline - basically a callsign prefix - to seperate the groups. You can then use if statements in the templates to just show what members you would like shown. I am working on a similar request from another va but have gone ahead and created a sperate set of tables for the members of the military division as I could not find a way to truly seperate the pilots in a single phpvms install.
  6. Have you checked to see if they are scheduled for today, probably Sunday where you are at. "0"123456 in the schedule days avalable, if you uploaded via csv file you may have dropped the 0 without realizing it.
  7. Put up a php info file and see if any of the url access functions are available, on a free hist I would guess that none of them are. By The Way, Love your rank images Narendran......
  8. The mail images folder goes in the site root. (alongside your /core /admin /lib folders)
  9. is the "pics" folder in the site route and writable?
  10. Yes, I had legal action threatened from WestJet Ltd. about a year ago now. I had sent numerous requests for an agreement with no response and figured since there was other WJA virtual's running including one with an agreement it was just a matter of time till I received something from the airline myself and started building the site. (First Mistake) Our site became virtualWestJets and I used their basic colors and modified their logo (second mistake) and built a site around those two things. After a few months and around 100 pilot signups I received an email from the site owner (also an employee of WJA Ltd., unknown to me at that point) running the WJA virtual with the agreement with WJA Ltd. wanting to "merge", after all his site had been in neglect for a period of time and was nearly inactive and I had activity. I said no (third mistake) and that I had tried to offer to redo his site originally and was snubbed, then the roof came down. A cease and desist letter from the corporate council of WJA Ltd landed in my email within a week of my no. After checking that the letter and lawyers were legitimate I went to my own company council and got the bad news, I was not in the left seat on this one. His recommendations to me were to shut it down as they requested and not make much noise about it, the only thing that was really questionable was the request to turn over the domain name to them. It did not matter that I was in a different country than the airline, that I was not profiting from the va, or any other argument I could think of. I took the site down and set up a blog to vent my frustration and sent my own long letter back to them agreeing to their terms outside of the domain release, I thought I could make them want to give me the agreement by launching a publicity war on my blog (fourth mistake), I approached media outlets in Canada with no success and finally realized it was a losing battle no matter how I sliced it, it crossed my mind for a moment to pre-pay the domain for ten years and just put a static image of "no-carentee here!" on it, but that would have been another mistake. I let the domain expire this year and moved on. We already had a strong group that wanted to continue and we decided to create a new site, but I used the knowledge gained from the WJA circus to try and do it right. What did I do? The new va mirrors a real world Canadian carrier but uses no logos, fonts, maps, images, or anything else that can be linked back to the real world counterpart. There is no mention of the real world airline name in any html text on the site for crawlers to find. The name is not used in our url, only the call sign, which the average Joe is probably not going to even realize the connection. There are a few, very few, images of fs screenshots depicting aircraft liveries of the real world airline, but no real world pictures. I used red, their company color base, but did not combine it with their other base color. I did not use a dot com address. There is no link to the real world airline on the site, so there are no connections for a crawler to make to the real world counterpart, not to mention they will not see traffic from the site to theirs. Could I get shut down? Possibly, but I do not think I will running in this fashion. Bottom line, if you are going to use names and logos among other things from a real world company, plan on trouble in the long run unless you enter into a written agreement with them. This is not one of these "it is easier to ask for forgiveness than it is to ask for permission" situations. Even with an agreement, things change, people change, and goodness knows lawyers change their minds, don't ever be surprised at the knock on the door.
  11. It must be an edit you have made as the template works across all the major browsers. Here is an example of one I modded for Fly Ohio a while back that works in IE. http://flyohioexpress.com/
  12. You should be able to use the native phpVMS mail function to add an email into the script. I would add it to the save new post command.
  13. Sorry guys, but I am no longer developing or extending Real Schedule Lite, in my book it was a disaster of epic proportions. No one ever seemed to get it working quite the way they wanted it to work and the number of special requests make it impossible to create one working version for everyone. The script is here for anyone that wants to use it and extend it how they see fit.
  14. Has the maintenance script run since you changed the settings, either by cron or the internal daily cleanup?
  15. The mailimages folder goes in the root directory of your site. The sql file is ready to be imported into your database, use phpmyadmin or a similar db UI to import it. You should have access to phpmyadmin from your hosting control panel.
  16. If you would like, email me what the mentor's report would include and also what your time frame is. I would like to give you a bid on your module. admin(at)simpilotgroup.com
  17. When you move a copy to your local server make sure you change the site url in the loacl.config.php file as well as the database settings to connect to the local mysql. If you are using absolute links in your header for the css they would need to be changed as well.
  18. I am cleaning up the freeware release of AIRMail 3.0 which includes most of the fixes and requests contained in this forum thread. - Any last requests?
  19. I am not sure what you are refering to, is this in the extended va-forum or the original? File, line #?
  20. $last_location = PIREPData::GetLastReports($pilotid); echo $last_location->arricao; Replace $pilotid with the variable you have that holds the pilotid. If the pilot has never filed a pirep it will be blank so you will need to add an if statement to show their hub or something if the $last_location variable comes back empty.
  21. Looks like the same problem as above, check and make sure you are using the correct username, database name, and password in your local.config.file -- Also, if it has been working, have you changed the mysql password or username?
  22. You need to set the time limit in your local.config.file for how long you want the flight to be on the acars map. # ACARS options # Minutes, flights to show on the ACARS # Default is 720 minutes (12 hours) Config::Set('ACARS_LIVE_TIME', 720);
  23. Have you run the installer for phpVMS? If you have and your site is working then the file has to exist for the system to operate, it holds all your local database connection info among other things. If you have not run the installer yet then you will not have a local.config.php file as it is created during the installation process.
