I need some ideas for the simplest way to disolay rosters, hubs, fleet and routes on our site. As administrator, I can see all these things, but to diisplay the information on the site, I need to do something that someone who is no a php proficient person can cobble together.
Any suggestions. or have I missed something really obvious?
Just link to the vms pages which show it? Or what exactly are you trying to do
I was thinking of a page that would always display routes…for public consumption just the route number, airports and aircraft, possibly in some type of timetable format. It isn’t a must have, right now. I’m still trying to get data entered.
The default schedule page isn’t what you’re looking for?
Except that it takes 4 or 5 lines for what can be done in one.
The story of my life can be seen in the fact that I bought a wide screen monitor, just at the time everyone started producing web sites that only use the center third of the space available. ;D
Oh dear, I might get yelled at for this one, but I find something very curious. Humans generally look for things in alphabetical order, but that list appears to be in reverse alpha-order.
It’s sorted by flight number
But you can customize that view by modifying the template (schedule_results.tpl), and compress it down to one line. Every view is a template, which is 90% HTML that you can customize however you like
There’s some video tutorials which explain everything, spend an hour or so with it, it should be pretty familiar at the end of that and the tutorials
And hey, that happens to me too. I am working on the vaCentral site, and it’s annoying how I can’t use the entire width.. well, one day
I’ve looked at some and will do more, today.
This is the default sort on my site.

As you can see, it isn’t by flight number, but is reverse alpha on departure airport. I didn’t modify anything.
Just checked the code, there’s no sort order. So I guess you entered them into the database that way
Almost, but there are a couple not in that order.
If you decide to sort them, my vote is for sorting on ICAO code.
which icao?
Logically, I think departure ICAO.
