  1. You mean empora as in emporavirtal.com? They are just out to get rid of you. They did it to my friend: Offered him a management position if he merged airlines, so he did. Once his airline was all gone and the pilots moved they just ignored him. Their website is awful too.
  2. Obviously that should be an optional feature, for airlines who want it.
  3. Which of course it always is... I think Nabeel's hosting is in fact very reasonably priced, considering I know it's a trustworthy provider and effort will always be put into fab server speed as well as the support. It's worth the extra money. Plus, when I see hosting for £1-3/month I instantly assume it's terrible and leave because nobody in the right mind would provide quality that cheap, so it can't possibly be quality.
  4. I was talking about the web system rather than the ACARS, but I agree with you - I have had my fair share of problems with FSACARS.
  5. Your site is good, I'm not a big fan of marquee's myself I think they look unprofessional but that's just me. Also, I would make the lists of links at the bottom equally sized. As for the links template, I assume it's the ones at the bottom I mentioned above, the 5 columns? If you're going to have them on every page you can just put them in the footer.tpl. Otherwise, put the html into your bottom_links.tpl, palce that in your skin's folder and use <?php Template::Show('core_htmlreq.tpl'); ?> to include it.
  6. Well basing his decision on the fact you use a free software is unwise. I have heard many people complaining about paid virtual airline software and even moving from them to free alternatives. Also, having a custom system built to the standards of phpvms would cost a fortune.
  7. Right, first you're missing all the important stuff in your <head> tags. Read the phpVMS skinning tutorials to put the right things in, and make sure you include your <title> tags. Next, the <head> tags and everything in them need only appear once. In your header you should have: <html> <head> {Important stuff} </head> <body> <div id="container"> <div id="header"> <h1> Site name </h1> </div> <div id="navigation"> <ul> <li><a href="#">Home</a></li> <li><a href="#">About</a></li> <li><a href="#">Services</a></li> <li><a href="#">Contact us</a></li> </ul> </div> <div id="content"> The code for your content should go in frontpage_main.tpl else it will appear on every page. Do something like so: <div class="left bar">Sidebar</div> <div class="left main">Mid</div> <div class="left bar">Right Sidebar</div> And in footer you should have: </div> (<-- Closing the content) <div id="footer"> Copyright © Euroskies Virtual Airlines. Theme designed and created by <a href="http://www.alpha6studios.com">Alpha 6 Studios</a>, 20XX </div> </body> </html> Then for your css: .left{float:left;} .bar{width:200px;} .main{width:560px;} Including any css for your navigation, header and footer.
  8. Yes I'm getting this a lot too, but every now and then I can get on to read (i.e. now)

    Some problems.

    In header.tpl at the bottom add: <div id="content"> and add style to your stylesheet to make it where you want it, and the correct width. Then in footer .tpl at the top add: </div> This will put a container around the content so you can move it back into the right place.
  10. Tom

    Some problems.

    Ok you need to add something along the lines of <div id="content"> on the end of your header and </div> at the start of your footer to contain the content. Then you can style that div to get it in the right place.
  11. Tom

    Some problems.

    I'm assuming this is your header? What about the footer?
  12. Tom

    Some problems.

    Do you have a live version or could you post the source code?

    Windows 7?

    Problems with the upgrade method... 1. It installs slow. 2. It runs slow. If you want the best from W7 install it fresh.
  14. Tom

    Windows 7?

    The partition will keep them completely separate - as if it were two separate hard disks. And when you start the system it will ask you which you want to boot. If you leave it it'll pick for you (the top on the list - probably Vista)
  15. Umm? Either this is in the wrong Forum or you clicked the wrong button, try "add reply" instead
  16. Ah ok. Im not doing that but I agree
  17. Will this also prevent them being installed for individuals by other individuals as part of a paid setup?

    phpVMS Logo

    Quite wild Olbi The problem is you couldn't possibly recognise it from a glance, or at small sizes which you really need for a logo.
  19. Well.. you must have more money than sense
  20. I don't really see a benefit of a Linux server for an airline to be honest. All you would really be able to do is host your site there, so you might as well just have hosting. If you want to get a server you can actually use (FSHost, 24/7 Gamespy) you'll need a windows server.. and that's big money.
  21. Nope, my testing VMS has no stats but I can see all the graphs.

    phpVMS Logo

    Like yours a lot stuart.

    Sidebars

    Or, to save you a whole load of time and effort, stick it in the header or footer (whichever is best for its place in the code).

    Skin Changes

    Yes. Layout.tpl is optional - just to make life easier - if it does not find one it will still use header.tpl and footer.tpl.
