Crend-

What exactly is your background? There is enough information in this thread for you to be able get a roster showing on your site. You just need to place the files on your host and make sure your file permissions are set correctly.

Quick question on PVPRank in the guild files. Do you have a correlation somewhere of what each number represents? They aren't straight up pvp rank as I have members of my guild showing up as rank 15 who are only Lieutenant General (rank 11 in game), and I'm showing up as rank 9 (but highest I've been is rank 8 in game, Legionnaire).

So any pointers to the actual correlation between the numbers and the ranks would save me a little time translating.

Also, are the ranks saved the highest rank acheived, or current rank (it looks like highest rank achieved).

Hey Rollie~

I am hoping to be able to utilize the exports on my site, using your sample code. Realm Frostwolf, guild <Bleu> doesn't seem to want to update when I look it up on warcraftrealms.com. The last entry it has any data for was June 20th or sometime near. Can you drop in a quick reply just letting me know that it is actually stemming from Blizzard, and not your site?

Many thanks,

~T

Perhaps you are unaware of how this information is gathered at this site. Blizzard has nothing to do with the data and it depends on people like you and me to help us keep the realms and guild data updated properly.

The information is collected by the mod Census+, which Rollie developed. Download Census+ and upload data yourself, so you know that your guild information is being updated properly. Frostwolf is on the Most Wanted List for submissions. http://www.warcraftrealms.com/mostwanted.php If a few people in your guild could do this it would help out not only your guild, but the whole Frostwolf server. :wink:

Ok I was figuring it might have something to do with what you stated above. Thanks for the affirmation. Off to d/l the mod and hopefully get the site up someday soon since I'm a pure newbie HTML wannabe dev :oops:

And so on that note I installed the free version of coffee cup's web editor to hopefully use it, instead of paying out of my arse for Dreamweaver. Has anyone used this proggie that can offer advice/criticism?

Thanks,

I've got a question about the availability of some data which is not presently published to the site. Presently, you have a graph of class balance versus time available at http://www.warcraftrealms.com/weeklyactivity.php. Is the data used to generate this available anyplace? I cannot find any data over time on the data download page.

There seems to be a problem with server names containing spaces, like Aerie Peak. Fetching http://www.warcraftrealms.com/exports/d ... name=Aerie Peak.csv.gz is not possible and returns a 0 byte file. The problem with your download.php script is, that it doesn't return 404 errors if the file doesn't exist. It just serves a 0 length file.

I've tried:

Aerie+Peak.csv.gz
Aerie%20Peak.csv.gz
AeriePeak.csv.gz
Aerie_Peak.csv.gz
Aerie-Peak.csv.gz

and they all don't work. It does work for all servers that don't have a space in their name though. Could you please fix this or - if it's my fault - tell me what I would have to write instead of a space? (Note that this does not only happen when I try to fetch the files via CURL/etc... but also when I click directly on the download links on your developers page.)


EDIT: You can probably ignore this. I tried it again and suddenly it worked... Sorry to have troubled you.

BG data

Post by Slacker »

Is there any way to export the BG data? I would like to mine the data for some trending and basic statistics. And I'm betting you would prefer me not to open hundreds of pages collecting all that data.... (Not to mention I would prefer to do the mining in excel)

Thanks in advance.

CSVs blank

Post by unregistered »

Hi, There seems to be an issue with the export csvs. I wanted to get silvermoon.csv.gz from http://www.warcraftrealms.com/dataexport.php , but my downloads always result in a 64 byte gz file that when unarchived, results in a csv file with the following data:

Server,Faction,Race,Class,Level,Count

And nothing else. It happens with other realms as well. Is this temporary? (I've tried for a couple days now). I've tried accessing the data in firefox (Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; en-US; rv:1.9.0.3) Gecko/2008092414 Firefox/3.0.3) and IE (in VMware).

Thanks
