Thanks, CDJ. Sounds good. I'm sure this will inspire a little extra trophy/achievement whoring this month. :D
Question, where is the sheet that had the tabs for the export of recruits players online, I know it was a thread that at least said what attributes where important to each position. I could have sworn they put the recruits in each tab, but apparently not as I am looking at the sheet right now.
Your talking about this right, - http://www.thegamingtailgate.com/for...age=3#comments
Yeah that is it, thank you sir.
oweb, sure you weren't looking for Rudy's spreadsheet? http://www.thegamingtailgate.com/for...OVR-determined
We've now upgraded to the latest version of vbulletin, 4.1.5. With this update, the biggest change is the new WYSIWYG editor for all browsers, including Chrome. What that means is that now, when you're in WYSIWYG mode (toggle is the upper left icon), you can copy & paste content and the forum will do it's best to convert it to matching bbcode. This also incorporates new table capabilities, including the ability to copy & paste the OS generated tables for dynasty/franchise reports that was requested in the past.
Right now the WYSIWYG editor defaults to off though I'm going to look to see if I can default it to on for everyone... then people can change it for their own personal taste.
Let me know any thoughts or questions.
Just a heads up, with the new version, the old table bbcode is no longer rendered. You can go in and edit your post to get the content out, however obviously it won't be formatted properly in it's current state.
To use the new table, it's similar to HTML using the [table][tr][td] tags. As well, you can generate a table by clicking the buttons along the 3rd row of icons above the post when you're using the full post editor.
Oh crap. That is going to a lot of editing to the dozens and dozens of tables in my dynasty.
Edit - I will say, the new version is nice. The new formatting tools actually work great and are easy to use. Just sucks having to completely edit a ton of posts that were all full of tables. :D
Yeah, and had I realized beforehand the conflict, I would have either figured something out or polled everyone.
That said, you MIGHT be able copy the text into notepad or word and do a find/replace for | and replace it with [/td][td]. You would still have to add the [tr] to the front of each row.
Hey G - Small note with the update. It appears it removed the TGT symbol that used to show up in the browser address bar. It's defaulting to Vbulletin's
Fuck, now I gotta relearn how to do tables again as well as edit my ginormous amount of tables in my thread...
:fp:
Yeah... really sorry guys. Going to take a look at the vbulletin hack page for the old tables we had and see if there is an easy way to update those or not.
Yeah the only thing that really sucks, is that you can't even see the old ones. Not even in an unformatted way.
JB has a lot of work to do in the TGA threads :D
No kidding, hope you can find a fix between that and the dynasty reports....that's a real big pain.
If you can't, it's really not THAT big of a deal. The find and replace idea will work just fine, it'll just be time consuming.
Yeah, caught me a bit by surprise. I thought maybe, if anything, the new table stuff would have converted over from the old format to the new format on it's own. Sadly not.
Yeah, it's all good. In terms of actually putting in new information, these new tables are MUCH user friendly, as the table itself is already laid out, you can easily center it and everything, as oppose to centering each individual section, it centers the entire thing if you want, etc. You don't have to keep typing | repeatedly between information. So overall, it's a much nicer and easier format. The big thing right now is just updating and switching the tables in old posts to the new format.
:D I thought about that. Pretty much everything in the TGA is tabled formats. Got a lot of updates to do there.
Yeah, while it took a while to redo everything, I was able to get quite a few posts from the beginning and my first couple games of season 1 in my dynasty updated, so it's coming along. It's not too bad. The real pain in the ass in terms of updating the format is going to be the bowl games, the conference standings, the coaching carousel, etc, at the end of season 1. Those tables could take me a while.
On a semi-related note, can we have more of the emoticons in the little pop up menu for the quick reply box or is that all that you can put there? Even if you can just put the ones that are normally used (not the logo ones and all that), that would be great. Some of them I know the code for and some of them I don't so I end up having to use the "Go Advanced" method of posting to add those cause I can never remember the code for them.
Yeah... looks like there's not a good way to do it. The problem is that the old tables we had were a hack that some guy created and they actually hadn't been updated in over three years... they just still worked. Therefore, there wasn't an automatic way to convert them.
One way you can consider doing it is to recreate the table in Word and then paste it directly from that. Obviously that doesn't help a whole lot since you can't see the current table, so a find/replace is probably the best bet.
I did see where one guy restored a read-only backup of his forum into a separate forum, then that allowed people to copy & paste those tables. I'm going to investigate that route... not sure if we're allowed by our license to have a second copy of the forums, even if it's just for testing or temporary.
Once again, sorry guys :fdown:
It's all good man. Like I said, I actually do like these new tables better than the old ones, because you can set it up exactly how you want it from the very beginning, how many rows, how many columns, have it all centered, etc right from the very beginning, create it and have it all laid out, then just go and type in what you need to. Much easier and convenient than typing |||| over and over between information in the tables. Right now, at least for us dynasty guys, it's just trying to get the stuff from the old tables switched to the new tables. That's the only issue for me. Otherwise, I love the new tables. They'll make things quicker after games since I'll have the actual physical table already fully created.
That's perfect. No need for the dynasty smilies since you have to go into "Go Advanced" for all the table formatting and such. Just figured, for the normal, everyday posting, it would be nice to have all the smilies that normal people would use available to them in the "Quick Reply" box.
Maybe since Tommy is admin, he can go in and fix the TGA tables for me ;)
This is Fail.

Alright, an update.
vbulletin does allow for multiple installs but not anything that we can allow the public to access.
"Such a test forum must be password protected, and not made available to the general public at any time."
So for now, that solution is out the window, though I've got a follow-up question regarding that so we'll see.
However, one workable solution I've come up with in order to convert your tables manually...
1) Edit your post in Source Mode (the A/A at the top-left)
2) Copy your text from source mode
3) Open Excel or Open Office and in Column B, paste the contents of your post
4) Do a find/replace for | and replace it with [/td][td]
5) In column A, add [tr][td] in front of every line (obviously for the first line, you'll have to add it in-between the [table] tag)
6) In column C, add [/td][/tr]
7) Copy & Paste Columns A-C into your post (while staying in Source Mode)
That should give you the majority of the table corrections, however there still might be some cleanup if you used table switches (head, width, etc.) As well, if you want the line grids to show, use the switch "class: grid" in your opening [table] tag
I know it's not perfect and isn't infinitely easier, but it should be somewhat easier. I'll continue to update anything else that I can share.
:fp:
It actually doesn't take that long to edit it. I'm about to get started on the rest of my stuff for my dynasty report thread now. I figure a few hours, at the most, and it'll be done and then I won't have to worry about it anymore.
Agreed. At least he's trying to find a work-around. I have probably the most posts with tables out of everyone that need to be fixed with my dynasty thread, and I'm taking it all in stride. I'm going to work on stuff over the next couple days when I can and get it all switched over and am alright with it. As I said in a previous post, personally, I actually like this new formatting for tables. It's much more streamlined in the WYSIWYG mode, and much quicker to type in information, so I'm happy with it. The hassle is just updating tables in previous posts, but it'll just take some time to sit down and do it, that's all. Nothing to get worked up about.
Yeah, I was able to update my entire Dynasty History, Coach History, season 1 schedule, and first two games in season 1, got all of that done in maybe an hour or so. So all added up, it'll take awhile, but nothing horrible.
