Most Expensive Mod - Version 1.3
===============================================================

What it does:
It is pretty simple, it does just count the most expensive losses and kills at your front page like the "Top Value Kills Mod ( viewtopic.php?f=505&t=14886 )" did, but it works different, has not all the features the other Mod had, but has other features
Also it works for EDK 3.0, dunno if it works for EDK 2.0 Boards. I don`t think so.



Features:
- Easy Installation
- Works for EDK 3.0
- Customize the counting days and kills.
- Select if just Kills, Losses or Both should be shown
- Bugs

==============================================================

===============================================================

Update:
- Overwrite existing mod files with your new downloaded files.

Couple of comments:

-You should use config::set() and config::get() to set/read the config values from the DB. It means you don't have to worry about the KB_SITE at all. You should REALLY change lines 47-49 of settings.php so that they use config::set() because currently if there are multiple boards on the same DB then if one board changes the settings all the boards will be changed.

-You may want to consider using Smarty templates to generate the HTML.

-You also may want to consider making your code XHTML compliant, because currently it breaks the otherwise-valid XHTML of the board.

I'm liking the mod though.

First of all, thanks for your comment!


Done that, new Update available in first post! Thanks for that didn´t know about that functions


To be honest, I have no clue about Smarty nor XHTML, is there some tutorial for me or any links I can read about it ? Maybe in german ?



Thanks, makes me happy

These two pages are pretty much all you need regarding XHTML: http://cn.w3schools.com/xhtml/xhtml_html.asp and http://cn.w3schools.com/xhtml/xhtml_syntax.asp. Google Translate can probably turn them into at least semi-readable German.

You can validate your code with this. Just point it at your killboard's URL and it'll check the front page. To check the admin code just View Source in your browser and copy everything to the Direct Input form on the validator.

As for Smarty, you may be able to work it out from the simpler pages (?a=about for example), but the smarty website has full documentation (in German too I think).

Alright, thanks for the links, this Mod is now XHTML compatible
I updated the first post, and added another link for Version 1.2 of this Mod.

Also I will look into that smarty thing, but later o/

Thanks

hi,

this is an cool mod, but it looksto all killmails on kb...

because im fetiching mails from alot killboards i don't see top mails from my corp...

its possible to change this?


www.rhuc.eu/killboard

Hi,
ah I didn`t think about such problems, I will try to do something that just kills where your corp was involved will be shown.

cool ty

it seems the mod does not display the correct loss value, as a hauler kill displayed only the lost fited modules value, but not the stuff in the cargo bay. is there a possibility to fix this, e.g. by using the total loss value?

Hmm, thats strange cause at my KB it shows the total loss value, can you gimme a link for that ?

Greetings.
