firs you need to make a mysql database, log into your hosting control panel to create one

you need to note down the database name, the username and the password

upload all the obblm files using an ftp program (filezilla is free and pretty good)

edit the config file and put in your database details i told you to note above

then with the edited config file uploaded and overwritten the default one, go to the install page in your web browser and follow the instructions

if you need any help with a specific part let me know, the more details you can give the easier it will be to step you through what part is confusing you

Awesome tool, i can only recommend it.

I'm currently setting it up to support our local league. It runs fine and is quite easy to mod even with no php skills to start

Added a new stylesheet, changed some formats, made the forum link to display in main frame, translating it to German and removed several things we don't use in our league from display ... if you want to have a look check here

I'm on the latest code revison and merge all new releases into my version until i start to put the real league data in.

Nicholas, i'll send you stuff (stylesheet, translations, e.g.) i did that i think might be reusable for others once it's finished.

I'm very glad you like it.
Please mail me the stylesheet and German translation file once done, thanks.

With a little help from a friend I got this up and running. But as far as I understand its LRB 5.0 rules only. No 2008 additions?

you can use one or the other, check the files one of them explains it

Maybe it should be written more clearly.
Yelf, what/where led you to the conclusion that only lrb5 was supported?

This may be elementary but I just thought I'd ask the pros

I have the site up running and have tested adding a few teams

http://bloodbowl.martin-consulting.com/ ... ction=main

now the question

on the home page ... if i want the "casualties" box to be "MVP" and just sort based on SPP

how would i change that?

Im not sure the fault lies with your clarity. As I nemtioned before I know little of computers and that is mainly because I have a short temper regarding computers.

The reason why I thought it was LRB 5.0 only, was that that was how the rules seemed to work when I started creating my team. Then I read a bit in the info but could not find any apparent comment on the subject.

Anyways, it seems like an excelent program. Much abliged!

Sorry, you have only access to the box types defined in the settings.php file.
Also, the boxes sort against the specified field, not SPP, what you want is quite different, you'll have to do it yourself for now.

so there isn't any code in the php files or css files that define that box? There must be some way that it gets defined that I could just change?

I know how to edit php and css, I just don't know where you guys have it defined at in the code to change it

The boxes are merely two pairs of html <div>, no function - it's too simple.
The "problem" is, that the stats displayed in the boxes come from a function, which can not produce what you want. Instead you are going to have to load ALL player objects and then sort amongst them like in the players section (have a look at the code for that section for inspiration - it's in lib/class_htmlout.php).

Is there any way to change the name of a team already created?
