First of all, I want to say Merry Christmas Everyone! and I want to apologize for how long this thread is going to be, because thiss is going to be a guide aswell. I have to explain how everything works or I'm sure a lot of people will get confused.
I have been working on a project for awhile, as you guys may have seen the little preview of my ACP.
Well, I have decided to turn that into a bigger project.
I have made that into a whole website. Changed from bootstrap 3 to bootstrap 4 and added a lot more features.
The website and ACP are merged together so if you just want to use one you would need to adjust the cms to work with that (not too hard).
Here's a gallery of the website with most of the features
Gallery 1
I Went with a basic style, hopefully I will be able to make the theme a lot better in the future.
Features:
The sidebars are made as plugins, and i have made a few pre made plugins for use.
- GRB Rankings
- Server Information
- Players Online (Lubes)
- Server Status (Lubes)
- Server Time
- GRB Time
- User Info/Member Area
- Boss Records
Some of these plugins are also available as pages.
Pages will include:
- About Information
- Boss Records
- Download
- Drop Finder
- Guild Rankings
- PvP Rankings
- News
- Patch Notes
- Terms of Service
- Members Page - view players online profiles with character display (Wont be released yet)
News/Patchnotes/Homepage edits can be made through the acp/databasse
AJAX Features:
- Check Registration Availability Names
- Private Message System (Wont be released yet)
- Support System (Wont be released yet)
- User Profile (Wont be released yet)
- Gift System (Wont be released yet)
User Profile will contain a full user control system where they will be able to see their characters informations aswell as edit their account information.
Website Management:
To manage this website, may be a little confusing for those who have never used a website like this before.
I'll do my best to try and explain how everything works.
Pages are managed through the database (might make a acp feature for it in the future)
As you can see, what this does it loads the classes (required files) and then displays the website.
Should be pretty self explanatory, NAV.class.php is for the navbar
Display.class.php will be where it displays the template and basic stuffs, and then Content.class.php will be Where it starts displaying the content
Just take a look inside and explore, have fun.
ACP Features:
To use the avatar/header for profile option you need to allow file write/access to your website.
Now i could sit here all day and show you all of the features, but how about you take a look and find out for yourself!
Work In Progress:
- Webmall with ACP Edit Features
- PvP Rewards
- Donate with IPN
- Forum
Make sure to run the sql file inside the Dbase folder (you can change the database name to anything you like)
Requirements:
- PHP with ODBC (< PHP 7)
For the website to work correctly, all users need to be in the WEB_PRESENCE table
- Should be compatible with any SQL over 2008
I plan to make this compatible with PHP 7 later on so stay with me.
You could do this with a simple query which would select all from users_master and then insert into said table and then with the registration it would insert new users into both tables.
All scripts required should be in the dBase folder. I have a lot of adjustments in my database, but i triple checked and I'm pretty sure everything is there.
I have my passwords encrypted in my database, so I will release that aswell since its being used for the login.
Everything in the dBase folder is required since i use so much custom scripts, If you go through it all you can just grab bits and pieces or adjust the scripts to not require them.
Plugins
Here you can manage which plugins you want to use by simply enabling or disabling them. (check gallery)
I Don't recommend using this for live use yet as there could be some bugs or errors that I don't know about, but do as you please.
I Made sure that all pages on the acp require authentication/appropriate access.
Please let me know if you find any errors, I will try my best to fix them and help you guys out.
Credits:
- Ash (friend of mine who helped a lot)
- Dash (used a lot of his scripts and converted)
- EPvP Community for some of the scripts i used
- anyone else who I may have forgotten
Configuration:
- Run the SQL Files
- Edit your database information/db name in Database.class.php and DB_Info.class.php
Everything should work once that is done
- to add or delete pages that must be done through the database table.
Downloads:
Please let me know If i forgot anything!

Hello,
It's been awhile since I Updated this little project.
I have been really busy working deving on servers and trying to increase my knowledge in programming.
Anyway, I decided to Update this project.
To use this new version you will need (Credits to Trayne01)
Or to, atleast use the ShExtended Options in ACP.
Version 2.0:
- Changed Website Over To MVC
- Added HTML Purifier Libary
- Added SEO URL's
- Added Animation Transition to Nav/Dropdowns
- Made Responsive(Compatible across every resolution/device)
- Added Allow Access function to only specified users (good for acp)
- Added ShExtended API + Converted to PDO
- Added Toggle Option for GRB Countdown (Settings Class)
- Added User Options/Settings
- Added Limitation of Accounts on registration
- Added Empty check for check userid/displayname ajax call
- Put Dark/Light Theme Mode Switcher in User Settings

I will update the main post later with new instructions and such.
To add a new page:
You can either create a new controller or a new function in a controller.
then you will need to create the view for that page.
It's pretty simple, just take a look at what's already there
If i forgot to mention anything, just let me know here.
Enjoy!
