Re: The Blue Alliance dotcom
 

Can you link to a specific match that has a video on .net that doesn't on .com? We haven't changed anything on .net from previously, so all video that was on .net should still be there.

Re: The Blue Alliance dotcom
 

This is just a suggestion but could the event and yearly W-L-T records be brought back?

Re: The Blue Alliance dotcom
 

Just pushed a new version. Fixes:

• Search box works, but Google hasn't indexed us yet, so doesn't "work"
• Fixes page rendering issues in Internet Explorer (let me know if you're still having problems)
• Fixes the video player, which I accidentally broke by moving the javascript
• Better html page titles

Let me know if anything isn't working still. :)

Hadn't reimplemented the film icon yet. Thanks for the reminder. :) It's back.

Facebook like button doesnt work.

Re: The Blue Alliance dotcom
 

What do you mean? What browser?

Re: The Blue Alliance dotcom
 

chrome,

say on team 40

this is the error i get:

You failed to provide a valid list of administators. You need to supply the administors using either a "fb:app_id" meta tag, or using a "fb:admins" meta tag to specify a comma-delimited list of Facebook users.

<script>
window.fbAsyncInit = function() {
FB.init({appId: 'your app id', status: true, cookie: true,
xfbml: true});
};
(function() {
var e = document.createElement('script'); e.async = true;
e.src = document.location.protocol +
'//connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js';
document.getElementById('fb-root').appendChild(e);
}());

that is code from your side

'your app id' needs to be replaced with your facebook api key

Re: The Blue Alliance dotcom
 

When viewing on my zune's browser, at least on the hompage, the content (Pretty much where it says The Blue Alliance) and down appear lined up with the bottom of "teams" in the left nav bar, pushing everything down below it. Wish I could get a picture of it.

Re: The Blue Alliance dotcom
 

I can't reproduce this. I added an fb:admins tag, although I had thought our fb:page_id tag was enough. Can you post a screenshot of the error?

Thanks!

Re: The Blue Alliance dotcom
 

Now it works fine! the admins tag lets the facebook api know the app or user that is responsible for the liked page.

What are you using for a database? I had a nightmare experience with google's datastore.

Re: The Blue Alliance dotcom
 

We're using the AppEngine datastore. What problems did you have?

Re: The Blue Alliance dotcom
 

They may be fixed now. Also I used the java version of appengine not python.
I had issues with objects persisting and such. It seems you are not having the same issues. I would try to store and update objects, and sometimes they would persist, other times they wouldn't. It was a bit random.

Honestly it slowed down development for me so bad that I ended up renting a VPS so I could use mysql and blazeds, which I had success with in the past.

are you using python or java for appengine?

Re: The Blue Alliance dotcom
 

At first I thought my Internet Explorer was crashing because the page was white, but then I realized it really was white. To say the least it threw me off.

I have been a supreme fan of thebluealliance.net, and seeing the dotcom version is cool, for instance the massive list of teams and their numbers (really cool), but I still miss being able to just type in the number and have the page jump right up (now there is a middle-man page through the google search)

Best of luck this year,
Petrie

Re: The Blue Alliance dotcom
 

My lead scout was grumbling last night about not having the win/loss/tie records for each event. No biggie, she counted them herself. Overall she liked it alot. I'll get on it tonight and poke around.

Re: The Blue Alliance dotcom
 

First I want to say We LOVE the blue alliance :) Makes scouting/strategizing/etc soooo much easier!

Few things we noticed
1511 specific - missing FLR 2005 & FLR 2007 (the full event, not just videos) and PTC is listed in our name (and shouldnt be)... That is probably from an old pull, as FIRST had it listed for about a month. Not sure if the names get updated often?

Wondering where the team# search went... its just a convenience rather than clicking teams & scrolling, or using the google search which seems to bring you to a specific event. It was just a really nice feature of the old BA homepage :)

Also wondering where the photos went. It was nice to see the photo of the robot from that year (when they were uploaded)

Other than that and a future wish list it looks good :) The white does give it a nice clean look, but personally I miss the black. Ahh well :)

Thanks for all the hard work Greg & crew!
