Request: Different headings on DPLogin
« on: June 17, 2010, 08:46:44 AM »
My idea is pretty straight forward, and seems to be easy to implement.

Basically, on the basic dplogin account homepage, it has "Active Clans" (if you're a member of a clan) "Pending/Former Clans"

What I think the headings should be are:

"Active Clans"
-- clan here

"Pending Clans"
-- clan(s) here

"Former Clans"
-- clans here

"Invited by"
-- clan that invited you here...

This is mainly because when someone is invited into a clan, the clan name appears on the Pending/Former clans list. To be quite honest, people aren't really interested in the Former clans part, so I think a "Invited" section/heading would make things a lot easier for us.

Ideas?

sounds fine but it should probably be "invited to" not "invited by".

Pretty irrelevant if you ask me. Doubt I've been to my profile page more than 3 times. That said, your suggestion doesn't bother me either so go for it.

I am

Anyway I think I didn't understand well.. There would be written if some clan invites you to join them?

At the moment, if you're in a clan there would be 2 headings:
Active Clans and Former / Pending Clans

However, if you're not in a clan, you just get Former / Pending clans - if a clan like [eX] invites a member, they won't think that they have been invited because it's in the Pending / Former Clans list. But, if it said [eX] Noblexity in the proposed "Invited to" heading, then the user would know that they have been invited by a clan.

This is a good idea, it makes things a bit more simple and organized, as well as clears up confusion in those rare cases where confusion may be induced.

I guess when I made this I didn't expect people to have so many former clans.  I've made this change (I think), but I can't really test it, since I don't have a bunch of former clans/invites/requests.  Let me know if it works.

Did not change anything for me...

Well, instead of Former/Pending Clans -- it just says: Former Clans  --- But when I got somebody to invite me to test it, nothing changed on my main page info. And ofcourse Active Clans is the same.

Did the clan that invited you show up in your former clans list?

It seems to be working for me when I put in a request to join a clan.  Somebody invite me to a clan, and I'll see if that's broken.

You need to leave your current clan to let us invite you :P Or someone else already invited you?

i still don't understand why don't you clear out all the clans that have 1 or less members in it. its really a waste of space and it disallows other clans to be formed when a certain name or tag can't be used.

Done.

Invited you to Silence, check if the heading worked.

Invites/Requests
Only The Best - [OTB]
Silence -

Testers - 11111'

Seems to work.

Edit: Well, ignore the bbcode.

hmm, maybe if you were invited to a clan you previously were in, it would not show up under a new 'Invites/Requests' because it's already under 'Former Clans' ? Because I tried again, and it still did not work for me.
