The site has been updated a bit and the calendar has returned.

There will no doubt be a few bugs turn up tho hopefully not many as we have tried to iron them all out before going live.

This is a staggered release to make sure not too many bugs are introduced at once.

First stage - new site and calendar - Completed - bug fix
Second stage - Voice of Seren.
Third stage - Dynamic clan signatures (stats)
Fourth Stage - Clan Hiscores page.
Fifth stage - Clan / member hiscores tracking.

Forums should work as before.

Some old links will NOT work, everything is still there but the format of links has changed a bit.

for example:

https://koaclan.co.uk/search.php?search_id=newposts
is now
search.php?search_id=newposts

if you get to the 404 page from a bookmark please update.

if you see any bugs please post.

Thanks for the update, looks really nice.

Just an idea, add clock to the calendar page and rather than trying to use person time use RS time, less calculating and once you get used to it a lot more convenient to host event and plan ones attendance.

Sorry for the slowness of tackling this, to get the calendar up as there is no calendar mod for this forums software it meant fusing 2 pieces of software together and although the back-end and the actual functions work perfectly well, the front end is a mess, it has introduced so many bugs to the forum front-end its just not worth it.

Before making the site live I fixed heaps and fixed a couple since, the idea behind it was although I know other languages I don't know the language this forum is based on, so it just seemed easier to carry on using pre-built software. However the amount of bugs that needed fixing and will continually need doing so every-time there is an update to the forums or the calendar or the software the calendar is a mod to or the theme for this or the theme for that lol... its just easier to write it myself and have clean code to work from.

Anyway tomorrow I will be putting up a site that looks the same, but has been written from scratch (primarily just html and css so far) that doesnt conflict with the forums. I had wanted to complete this before putting it up with the new calendar and hi-scores etc... however the forum is so buggy in multiple places and I don't want to leave it like that for the next few weeks while I'm away.. until it gets done. So the calendar will be coming down in the short term. In reality it's not months of work its hours. I think I should be able to complete the site in 30 or so hours with all functions seeing as I only have limited knowledge of PHP previously, but in real terms those hours are likely to be spread over some weeks.

apologies for the switch yet again, but somehow rl always slows things down.
