  • This topic was already discussed on the leaders board but now its time to make it official (finally).
    It took me some time to translate everything (as my USB drive with a half translated version suddenly died) but this new Portal feature is finally running.


    So what is it?
    It basically is a group management system for clans.
    The clan leaders by default have the right to create a new group which they can moderate once the group has been activated by me.
    Like already mention it is a feature for clans.
    Very often people want to form clans but dont know how to build websites or host forums.
    All that can be done with the new Community groups.


    Features:
    Detailed management and permission system for groups and members
    Different clan descriptions possible
    member list
    member activity logs
    comment system
    forums that easily can be created by the group leader
    a map (useless feature)
    Support for Clan logos
    3 grades of member rights


    Every official Server Clan can make use of this feature to present their clan.
    Of course i also follow some own intentions when introducing this feature.
    I want that clans get involved in Forum activities again ... they have the chance to create their private area here at SWAT.
    To display the full memberlist it is required that all the members are registered. The clan leaders also benefit by that as they see where their members are active and if they are active at all.
    And last but not least... I believe this feature helps us to expand into different games as everybody who wants to create a clan in another game can do it right here and everybody else which plays that game can join this group. Most approaches to expand into other games failed in the past either due to the lack of organization or due to the fear to make the first step.
    Lets change that!


    You can access the new Community groups on the "Users" tab of our menu.
    additional links from the forum will follow.


    first page is the category page
    here you can see that the only thing we need to do is to add new categories if we want to prepare SWAT for the future
    index.php?page=InterestGroupsOverview
    You also see the latest statistics on the right side


    Click on one of the categories lead you to the clan overview
    Here you see the clan logo and a short description of the clan
    index.php?page=InterestGroupsCategory&categoryID=1


    From here you can visit the clan directly, with its descriptions, memberlists and forums
    index.php?page=InterestGroupsGroup&groupID=2

    Only dead fish swim with the stream.
    Don't discuss with idiots. They only drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience there.


    This is ten percent luck,
    Twenty percent skill,
    Fifteen percent concentrated power of will,
    Five percent pleasure,
    Fifty percent pain,
    And a hundred percent reason to remember the name!

  • their decision, they still can use it

  • Please specify what does it mean "official clan".
    It means, clan officially announced here or\and something else?
