JKHub Bar Suggestion

[eezstreet]

Make it say something other than "Want this bar on your site?" or "Introducing: JKHub". It should have some kind of tie in with site content, like specifying in your news posts what can and can't be in the rotation.

Like... some sort of JKHub motto or something? A sentence that would peak people's interest, aye?

[eezstreet]

No, as in tying the text to news posts, that way we can see the latest JKHub news across sites.

[Nihilus]

Oh I see where you're coming from. That would help JKHub as well, I believe. I'm up for the idea. But that means work for certain people... AND I'M OKAY WITH THAT! *evil laughter*

Ye I agree, I thought that would be the actual function of the bar lol

Besides that I think there should be an option to stick the bar to the top even when you scroll.

[afi]

Can't you make the bar to automatically display the latest news?

[Malkav]

Or you could add useless trivia.

This bar has so much potential. Just imagine... when most jka-related websites have this bar this could be the main news-source for the community.

Masterservers are down? The JKhub will explain what to do... or stuff like that B)

Why doesn't JKHub just run its own update server and display news through jka itself there?

It could be used by default for that new "patch".

Making an update server is shit easy, but we just have to get people to use the new patch.

Saywhut? o_o

 

There are plans like that for that specific project, but the bar itself is simply a javascript file and some CSS.

You know, when you're connecting to a server and you see that text "Welcome player #<random numbers>". That's the motd coming from the update server.

If we had our own, we can send our own message.

But yea, totally unrelated to the bar

EDIT: Actually, it /might/ not be the update server. I am 90% sure it is, but I could be wrong. JKA uses a lot of servers >_>

Something like "VISIT US OR DIE" would do fine. linux
