Added a Google Calendar for the unit. You can find it here:
page.php?page=calendar

As of right now, the calendar will automatically have its timezone set based on your timezone settings in phpBB here. If it cannot find any such setting for you (such as a guest), it should default to Eastern Time. I've added a link to this calendar on the FWLM TeamSpeak in the channel description for our main channel.

Clicking a user's name under the Members button at the top of the forum will now take you to the custom profile page for them. If you view your own profile, you should see an Edit Mode link near the bottom to allow you to edit the fields.

To get at your own, find yourself in the Members list. If you're a recruit, you'll have to wait a bit because the changes to the forum to fully integrate this are not complete yet.

To do:
  • Add link to original phpBB profile for the user in the new page.
  • Modify the general post view to redirect the "Profile" button at the bottom of a user's post.

Updated the member management code on the website again. Fixed a couple of bugs, one exploit (added an error in if exploit is tried), and added the ability to bring in new recruits with one click by officers of sufficient rank. New recruits brought in this way from now on will have a record of the person recruited, who recruited them, and the date for a future tracking system.

Some day soon, when I have time to write the code, officers will get a pop up when the log in with a list of any recruits eligible to be brought up to full membership. They will then be able to handle it with the same single click they can now. The difference being that we wont as easily forget!
