A few small updates to bikepolo.ca

A few small updates to bikepolo.ca today:

  • The photos page with all bike polo photos on flickr is back
  • There's a list of all clubs on the homepage now.
  • Change in the layout of club pages.
  • Updated the google maps code so that the links for European listings actually work, and the maps display better for tournament and club listings
  • A whole bunch of behind the scenes crap to prepare the site for an upgrade to Drupal 6 so i can start adding a bunch of other features

There's a decent chance that i caused some bugs in doing some of this, so lemme know.

Yep, pretty awesome Saturday night for me.

That's a beautiful long list of clubs. You got any expenses running this thing? I know domains ain't free and I sure do appreciate this website - add a donate button somewhere.

BRINGING THE RUCKUS

love that that the flickriver is back again kev, so convenient for seeing some great random shots from all over.

Wow. I just discovered the Lightbox feature on the images. Nice. Kev, I love this forum, it's my favorite thing on the web. Thank you.

as you probably noticed i changed the location of the tabs, made the header taller, and plopped in 40 photos, mostly taken by myself, jonny, and cecily. i'm going harass some others for photos soon.

oh my god i fucking love it kev, the site looks awesome. and new every time i look at it. shit hot. i can dump a tonne of pre-cropped header photos on you, do you want us to still use the form?

naw just email them to me! 1025x205 pixels

well, you can either email them to me, or even better, put them on flickr and post them to http://www.flickr.com/groups/bikepolobannerimages/ .

The home page takes longer to load now, and I get a "script error" every tenth or so time I return to the home page from a thread. Using Firefox 3.0.11 on a Mac running 10.4.11.

Otherwise, great little add-ons. I like the club list on the home page, and all the new banner pix.

How about a little code so I can just go to the next "N unread" thread instead of going back to the home page between each thread? I can get it in Drupal if it helps.

the problem is definitely with firefox 3.0.11, i never have problems with the site in safari on the mac or explorer at work, why don't you upgrade to 3.5.1? it's free, as in free beer, not free speech. and macosx 10.4.11 was released 14 November 2007, no wonder you're having problems. 10.5 is much more stable.

great job kev, keep em coming. any interest in posting some site stats? any interest in replying to my email?

heh ya i've been offline all weekend, so no email. but i'll hit you back tomorrow.

if anyone else is experiencing the problem that lucky has, post here or email me. the homepage might load slower than before cause there are 40 photos in rotation instead of 6, which are easier for your browser to cache. the only other difference is the list of clubs at the bottom, which load quickly.

lucky, if you want to read a bunch of forum threads, try command-clicking them from the home page so that they open in new tabs.

+1 to the script problem after the changes.

I have no problem Fx 3.0.10 on Win XP but it eats my memory whole when running 3.0.11 on Linux.

could be possible, in the club page to see who is member to that club?
at the moment you can see who is in your onw club, but no in the ones you are not member
I will like to see who is who and where everybody play

sorry rik, not for now. just check the location on their user page.

Script: http://bikepolo.ca/misc/jquery.js:11

That's the one that comes up "unresponsive" for me sometimes. I copied it from the dialog box.

happens to me too all the time while browsing LOBP with Firefox 3.0.11

menus don't show up right in IE, so i only use FF for LOBP

Get FF 3.5 or 3.6, that should reduce those script errors.

I just discovered that IE menu issue the other day, i'll get on that soon.

ff 3.6 seems to have taken care of the script problem - thanks!

When searching for something whenever I click on the third page of results I get redirected to a (seemingly) random member's profile.

fixed. only happened with very particular searches, but ya, definitely a bug.

Seems to be happening again. When I'm browsing under "active topics" when I click on page two it takes me to a page for a tournament in Paris. Does this mean I have to play in this tournament or what?

i had a hard time replicating this problem, can you try again? email me with the contact link at the top

I was having this too- clicking "Page 2" or "Next" was taking me straight to an upcoming tournament in Lille.

But... now it's fixed?

I'm on Chrome 4.1, awful Vista SP1, 64 bit.

are there any new easter eggs on the site? just curious

yes lots.

where's the konami code?

right as your starting the game

thanks, now i have infinite lives as long as i stay logged on to lobp.

How do I (if I can) switch out city reps? For Jacksonville, fl from me to username jaxjoe

you just edit the club page and change it. but i just went ahead and did it.

I'm closing this thread. if you find a bug, just email me.
