LagTV Website Update

[andypike]

Hi guys,

Just a quick email to let you all know where we are on the site as we've been a bit quiet over the last couple of weeks. 

Firstly, things are moving ahead nicely. In the master branch we have a site that can do the following:

* Fans can register an account

* Fans can login

* Fans can logout

* Fans can upload a replay file (maximum of 3 per rolling 7 days and they expire after 14 days)

* Admins/CMs can search the signed up members (listing with paging, text searching and filtering)

* Admins/CMs can search uploaded replays (text search/filtering/paging - expired and rejected are hidden by default).

* Admins/CMs can download single replay files

* Admins/CMs can download a batch of replay files in a zip file

* Admins/CMs can update a single replay status (suggested/rejected etc)

* Admins/CMs can update a batch of replays status (suggested/rejected etc)

* Admins/CMs can comment and rate (out of 5 stars) replay files which will make it as easy as possible for Adam and Jeff to find good replays from those submitted

Next up we are going to be doing the following:

* I'm going to setup a linode server as a UAT (User Acceptance Testing) server. This will allow you to view progress and also will allow us to load test the entry level server to see what it can handle before we sign up for the live server.

* Pending getting approved designs, we need to apply the design to the site

* Add basic forums

We just have a few bits to clean up before we can deploy to the UAT server. At this point there will be plenty for you guys to test while we start adding the proper design.

In terms of design we are waiting for one more submission I believe then we will start the review and feedback process to get a design selected.

So, hang in there and thanks for all the support so far. 

Any questions please let me know.

Regards

Andy

[Antariano]

Amazing job guys :D Keep this going!

[Ludi Productions]

Keep up the good work! Also, will there be a "News" section? I think it would be beneficial to include so that way I don't have to check LAGTV's youtube, twitter, facebook, etc. every time. I like to get my news in one spot just in case I can't check my other accounts.

[George Good]

It's a good idea! Hopefully there will be a news section at some point.

[Stuka87]

Awesome!

Looking forward to more stuff to test!

[Andy Pike]

Thanks everyone. I've setup a linode server with the latest version ready for your testing. I'll share the url with you soon, we just have a couple of items to clean up first and we'll be ready for testing. Watch this space :o)

Andy

[cyclooctane]

Also looking forward to more stuff to test.

Andy, if you still want the servers that I am hosting at the moment, I
am happy to leave them running.
It is good to see that testing is moving onto an identical platform
that production will run on. (makes bug fixes much easier)

Regards

Cyclooctane

[Andy Pike]

I don't think we are going to need those servers now. Having them at the beginning was really useful but I think now that we have a server that is the same as the production server will be it makes sense to do all the testing on this. Thank you so much for setting them up and the help you've given us, was awesome! 

Once we have tested the functionality I'd like to run some load testing so we can see what that spec server can handle. We can compare this to the analytics from the previous site and then look at either optimising the site code or an upgraded server if required.

We've very close now, so get ready :o)

Andy

[cyclooctane]

Works for me.

I am happy to host dev and test servers in the future if needed.

Otherwise my ESX cluster can go back to what is normally does.
Serving as a sandbox for me to test things :)
Great to know that a production system may not be far away, depending
on how many bugs we find of course :)

Regards

Cyclooctane

[Stuka87]

Looking forward to the new build :)

[Chris Marks]

I had a crazy idea today, which is mostly crazy because I don't know if anyone would want to sit down and actually do it: include a database table to keep track of all the random crap they talk about each episode, and how much they talk about it (i.e. in-depth, mentioned in passing, etc), and watch every episode in search of those things. So if someone wants to watch every video where they talk about Bill Cosby, they can search the videos for them and have them all there in front of them.

Also, whether each video is a livecast or replay, and who's there for it (since some are just Jeff, some are just Adam, and occasionally they're joined by someone else), which channel it's on, which game it's in (if any), etc. So basically, have as much metadata about each video as possible on the website. Ideally, each game would have its own set of seasons, so there would be a break between Starcraft, Minecraft, random playthroughs, and other stuff.

[Teeb]

I like the sound of more metadata!

The other day I found myself asking in comments about where 'At what cost Adam, at what cost... Adam' started - your functionality would be perfect for this kind of query, and it would add a great deal of depth to the content and serve as a sort of history of LagTV :)

[Stuka87]

How are things coming Andy?

[Teeb]

We're waiting for one last design submission from a friend/colleague of Andy before we submit them to Adam, at least that's where I think we stand right now. Looks like most of the infrastructure is already done.

[Andy Pike]

Yeah, that's right. She is a good designer and has done an initial version so I think she is almost there. We can then give all the designs to Adam and get feedback. Then we can move forward and get the site finished. 

This has taken a lot longer to complete than I hoped and expected. I know Adam is keen for it but he also wants it to be as good as it can be. Sometimes it's difficult when people contribute their free time for a project like this as they have to find the time and I'm in no position to tell anyone off for taking a long time (me included). Adam understands and has been very patient but we do need to move this forward soon. So, if she isn't finished soon then we'll just have to continue without her designs.

So thanks everyone for your hard work and patience. The site is done functionality wise, it just needs the skin put on :o)

I'll let you know how it goes.

Cheers

Andy

[Razgriz_Gundam]

this MAY be fairly off topic, but ill be honest, good cheap service doesn't come fast

[George Good]

Haha, like it. I could put that up where I work.

[Stuka87]

Liking the new design :)

[Teeb]

Any news on the last design Andy?

[Andy Pike]

Hey guys,

Sure, so I guess an update is in order. Sorry for not keeping you guys in the loop with some of the work at I'm doing, consider my wrists slapped. Basically I sent Adam all the designs we have had from you guys and Adam selected one. This is the one from a designer friend of mine that wanted to contribute. I didn't post her submission here, I forgot and I should have done that, sorry. I'll add it to this post so you can see it. 

I've been speaking with Adam about the design and fine tuning it and we are now at a point to implement it. I've started this and have updated the testing site with the changes so far. You can see them here: http://lagtv.andypike.com. So far I'm focusing on the homepage, so at the moment, ignore all other pages. I still have some bits on the homepage to clean up and have some initial feedback from Adam so I'll be working through this over the next few days. Also, I've just tried it out in Chrome so far so other browsers might look funky at the moment ;o)

Once the design is in and Adam is happy with it, I'll need some help testing it on various browsers. I'll post a new topic here when we're ready for that.

I'd really like to thank everyone for their help so far, especially for the guys that submitted designs. I know it takes a long time to come up with something that you are happy with and on behalf of Adam and Jeff I'd like to like to say a big thank you and that we really appreciate your hard work and support that you have given this project so far. There is a page on the website where we are listing all the people that have contributed to the site (large or small) so if you have submitted a design, have tested the site or have contributed to discussions then please let me know and I'll add you to this page. Please let me know what name I should use, what avatar you want and a web link of your choice (your twitter, facebook, YouTube etc). 

I think we are on the home straight now :o) Looking forward to launching the site soon.

If you have any questions, please let me know.

Thanks again

Andy

[George Good]

I'm hoping to be able to start helping andy get the rest of the design in soon!

Cheers,

George

[Teeb]

Thanks for the update Andy. 

Bit sour about two things though - that you didn't tell us about this new update, and that your friend's design doesn't follow any of the conventions that every other designer here has had to follow - using the right hand sidebar, a horizontal navigation bar etc. which are frankly ancient assets that I'd rather have skipped altogether in my own attempt.

So the transparency on your part hasn't been great, and that this is quite upsetting for me considering I and others have been checking this forum for an update every day, and that we didn't know a selection had already been made by a completely unknown designer, who didn't even have to make the effort to prove herself to the community here before being allowed to make a final design for the site. 

So basically that's complete bullshit.

Nonetheless I'm glad to see the site is making some headway and we'll have somewhere for LagTV soon.

Thanks everyone here for the amazing work, keep it up!

Teeb

[Andy Pike]

Hey Teeb,

OK, I think I deserved that. Firstly, all I can do is apologise for not doing the right thing by you all and I'm sorry that you feel let down and even a bit angry. Let me try to explain in a bit more detail so you can see what happened and basically how I fucked up. 

* We asked for the community to submit designs for the site which lots of you did and I'm genuinely grateful for. In my defence, when I asked for submissions I said that the layout is not fixed and you are free to change it. See the post on 9th May: "Here are the wireframes for the homepage. These are just guides regarding what needs to be on the page, feel free to change the layout if you think you have a better solution..."

* I sent all of these designs to Adam to look at and feedback on

* One of the designers I work with was interested in helping too after she heard me talking about it. She isn't a LagTV fan but wanted to help me out. I gave her the same information as you guys, but thinking about it now, she did have an unfair advantage as we could discuss it verbally which is more convenient than a google group. We should have kept our conversions on the group so you could all see it (not that we discussed that much really anyway). That is totally my fault, it was just easy to chat face to face. I should have also uploaded the design she did at the time as well. This was a honest mistake on my part. Again, all I can do is say sorry for that. I meant to do it at the time but just didn't get round to it.

* As she was working on the designs I did post a few times that she was working on a design and I wanted Adam to see that too before a decision was made and that was the reason to the delay. See my post on Aug 1st for example. So it wasn't a secret that she was working on a design, I just didn't post her submission or what we discussed about it. I spoke to Adam about the delay and he was happy to wait for her submission. 

So in summary, I should have updated you all more often than I did and made sure that the whole thing was transparent and for that I am sorry. I'm not an evil villan trying to hatch a plan to piss you all off. I'm just a fan like you trying to do the right thing and get the guys a site they can finally use. I've tried to do the best I can to keep everyone happy but I haven't done a great job here obviously. Like you all here, my only motivation is to help Adam and Jeff and ultimately the community as a whole. Trying to spec the project, manage the community, build the site and make sure Adam is updated isn't an insignificant amount of work for me during my free time so while I agree I should have done better for you all I would ask that you could cut me a little slack? I've reflected back on the above and I can totally understand the reaction and how it looks but it has been a genuinely honest mistake on my part.

What can I do you make it up to you all? Let me know and I'll try my very best to make you happy and get everyone back on board. Also I just want to reiterate that this is in no way anyone else's fault but my own. So please don't hate on Adam, Jeff or my designer friend. They are in no way to blame for any of this.

I hope you can accept my apology and understand how it happened, I just forgot to put the design to the group. If not, please let me know and I'll be happy to discuss it further with you.

Thanks

Andy

[Ludi Productions]

Andy,

It's ok. It was a little bit unfair to everyone, but I've gotten over it. It would have been better to see the design so we can all put our feedbacks/thoughts.

So this is the design that Adam approves, right? The design looks good, but it didn't really wow me. I would have like to see the website be more interactive and fun for the viewers/fans to see and use. But for now, the design will do.The website is in the 1st phase and changes can be made in the future. I know that Adam was planning to choose the designs, but could you ask him and see if he thought about letting the viewers/fans decide?

Anyway, I tested the website and everything looks good to go except:

- The LAGTV Channel 1 link in the footer is incorrect. It says lifesaglitchtv1, should not be a "1" there.
- Are you planning to have a news feed on the home page? Because I don't really like the forum activity there unless you are planning to have that as your news feed. Imo, it should be in the Forum section.

Being on the stream, the fans/viewers always want to know when or what Jeff & Adam are planning to stream. It's better to have a news feed since some people don't use facebook, twitter, youtube restrictions, etc.

Anyway, I will provide to give more feedback as I keep testing and checking out the site. Thanks for keeping us posted and keep up the good work guys!

[Andy Pike]

Hi Ludi,

Thanks for the reply. Let me speak to Adam about the design and the community input. I'm happy to build in any design and am happy to back out the changes I've done so far. I really want to make sure you guys are happy with the outcome so let me discuss this with Adam and see what he says. 

Thanks

Andy

[andypike]

Hi Ludi,

I didn't answer some of your questions. Let me do that now in addition:

1. Adam did approve the design, but I'm going to speak with him about some community feedback and involvement to help smooth things over with everyone.

2. We're not planning on a news feed just yet, we are focusing on getting version 1 of the site done. I guess the guys can use the forum for the time being for announcements and news.

3. This is only the first release of the site and I'm expecting to be adding functionality and design changes in the future. We want to get something out and useable for the fans and Adam/Jeff which will make their lives easier.

Thanks for the other feedback :o)

Cheers

Andy

[cyclooctane]

Hi Andy.

I do like the design, although I do not totally agree with the process
I see why it was done that way.
These things happen, so no hard feelings from me.

I will give it a quick test soon and see if I can find any other issues.

Regards

Cyclooctane

[cyclooctane]

Hi Andy

There seems to be a minor rendering issue in Firefox 15 under Ubuntu 12.04
As you can see in the attached screen shot the text crosses the center logo an becomes almost unreadable.
This also happens in the form section of the site.

I will open an issue on git hub when I get the chance.

Regards

Cyclooctane

[Adam [NovaWar]]

Part of that is my fault.

What happened was I eventually was sent everyone's designs and Andy let me know he had one more on the way (I believe the top of this thread is in relation to that). I said I would wait for the last and make a decision as I wasn't 100% on any of the submitted designs, though they were for the most part all quite good considering the confines of the request.

The last design took quite a long time to get to me for a number of reasons, all of which were unavoidable and nobody's fault. The designer to send in last didn't have the design requests, simply the functionality requests. After having looked at the other designs, and then this one, I made a decision to go with it even though it wasn't exactly what I had envisioned. The reason why is because I realized that much of the end-game functionality for the site we have on list will likely take a very long time to achieve since this is being done on everyone's free time and at no cost which is entirely acceptable, but makes the design I had thought of to match that functionality superfluous. This last design is tailored to the beginning functionality which will likely remain for quite some time and so made infinitely more sense.

I want to make it abundantly clear that I so very much appreciate all the time and effort put in by everyone on this project. Nobody had to do anything. You weren't being paid. This is why at the very least I wanted to make a list of user names or real names (whichever you prefer) for the About section of the website to show everyone who had a hand in building it. This includes everyone, whether your designs were accepted or not. If you put time in, I want your name there. I believe Andy has made a post to accomplish this.

Again I apologize for what obviously seems like some sort of shady back door shenanigans, but I assure you it was all quite coincidental and just lacked an update to all of you along the way. I absolutely take responsibility for that.

If you have any other questions feel free to email me and I'll answer them.

Have a good one. 

[George Good]

Well Said :)

Hopefully everything is smoothed over now!

[Stuka87]

Ok, my last post got lost or something.

Anyway, this issue happens on any page that has text at the top of the content area. Such as the replay submit page.

[Stuka87]

These things happen, especially on group projects where we are not all in the same location. Andy did create a post here to get every bodies information. So if you guys have not posted there yet, please do so :) Be it if you are testing, coding, or submitting designs.

-Brandon

[Ludi Productions]

Andy,

Understandable. Do what you got to do. For now, any design will do. I would rather have a functional website up as soon as possible (with Adam's and Jeff's satisfaction) to give them website presence and more fans/viewers. It won't be perfect, but hey, we can rebuild/work on the revised version in the back end.

[andypike]

Yep, thanks guys <3 

Nothing is set in stone and things can and will change in the future, lets get the site live and in use and we can iterate over the changes as required in terms of design and functionality.

Cheers

Andy

[cyclooctane]

I would also like to see the site functional ASAP.
These things happen when we are spread all over the world and it makes communication difficult.
This is the sort of thing that happens occasionally.

Great to know that is has been smoothed over.

Cyclooctane

[Andy Pike]

Hi all,

I've fixed a bunch of things from what you have reported here and also a snagging list from Adam. Feel free to take a look. The homepage should be done now. Next I'll be moving onto the other pages of the site as they are not yet styled correctly.

Cheers

Andy

[cyclooctane]

Just did a check on the replays page.
It seems to be fixed.
Andy, do you want me to mark the issue in Git as closed or do you want
to do it.

Regards

Cyclooctane

[Andy Pike]

I've done it already thanks :o)

Hi chaps,

Just to let you know that I've pushed a new update that improves the layout of a number of pages. Still got a few to go so this is work in progress. The forums are better now but still need some work. Also I've tested in Chrome, FireFox and iOS safari and it all looks good. IE however is a different kettle of fish, I'll look at that once the rest of the pages are done.

Just keeping you all in the loop. Any comments, feel free to let me know.

Cheers

Andy

[IceWulf]

Internet Explorer can suck it as far as I am concerned. So can Netscape Communicator 4.x. Even Linux Test browsers do work!

[andypike]

Hi all,

Just posted another updated. Almost done now, just need to improve the forums (any suggestions welcome) and do some cross browser testing. I've also updated the about page here http://lagtv.andypike.com/about with people that have posted in the contributor thread. Add your name there if you want to be listed. I'm using gravatar for the avatar images unless you supply one :o)

Any comments, please let me know.

Cheers

Andy

[Stuka87]

If things are stable enough, I should be able to run another mobile devise test this Friday. If you have any specific devices tested let me know, I have access to just about every one made.

-Brandon

[Andy Pike]

I've given the site a quick once over on an iPad 3 on iOS 5.1 but that's about it. I'd focus on the most popular devices (whatever they are).

Cheers

Andy

[Ludi Productions]

Andy,

It looks great. Although, I would recommend having the contributors' links open in a new window rather than within the same window...we don't want the visitors leave lagtv site. We want them to still stay there in case they want to access LAGTV website. Also, it will help with SEO and let us know where and what people are accessing.

Also, I ran some cross browser testing as well, everything checks out except for IE 9. Andy, you are definitely right. IE 9 is messing this all up. In the homepage under the forum activity in the post section, the buttons is not showing up...it's in white. Also, the embedded youtube flash is covering the navigation/header. It's a cluster***, haha.

[paul burns]

Hi Andy.
On the subject of security testing.

I am happy to run a nessus scan against the site if you want me to.
I have a left over Eval copy that I can use for the scan.
If you want more then this, I will talk to the guys at work and see if I can get time on our nessus scanner at work.

Let me know if you want me to do this, and when since I have seen nessus cause problems for sites in the past.

Regards

Cyclooctane

[Andy Pike]

I think you can do this whenever it suits you. I would just post a new topic notifying people when this will happen so they don't use the site during that period.

Cheers

Andy

[Stuka87]

Ok, friday I will run a pass on the most used devices. Which is basically iOS 5-6 devices and Android 2.3-4.1 devices.

[Andy Pike]

Hi guys,

Just wanted to let you know that I think we have finished the site (pending testing). Wahoo! I fixed the IE issues and have gone through and cleaned up the final few screens. I just deployed the latest changes to the server here: http://lagtv.andypike.com

Now I need as many people as possible to get on the server and test the shit out of it! We need different browsers and devices, Stuka87 is testing the mobile devices so we need some desktop browser testers. You should focus on Chrome, FireFox, IE8/9 and Safari. I've given the site a once over but really need you guys to test it properly for us. If you find an issue, please create an issue in the issue tracker over at GitHub here: https://github.com/andypike/lagtv/issues?state=open. Please add as much detail as possible including what browser you are using. 

Thanks all. If you have any questions then please let me know.

Cheers

Andy

[paul burns]

Hi Andy

I will run the Firefox and IE tests when I get home tonight.
Do you have a list of things that you want targeted, or do you just want us to test everything we can think of?

Regards

Cyclooctane

[Andy Pike]

Yeah, basically everything.

Don't forget that that are different user types: member, community manager and admin. They all have different permissions, you can look through the details in the github milestones here: https://github.com/andypike/lagtv/issues/milestones?state=closed. If you have specific questions then please let me know. Basically:

* You need to be logged in before you can submit a replay or post in the forums

* People need to be able to create an account (must have a unique email address)

* You can only upload a max of 3 replays per week

* Admins and manage all aspects of the site

* Community managers can do a lot, they main job will be to help moderate the forums and review replays. We reviewing replays, they can rate and comment on a replay.

* Admins (Adam and Jeff) will then be able to filter the list of submitted replays by things like category and rating. This should make their life a bit easier.

* Of course there is user management too

There is a much of other bits and pieces but you will find that on your travels :o) Just try and break it. It's better that you do now rather than fans when it's live,

If you need an admin account then you can use these details (please don't change them):

e: ad...@gmail.com

p: cheese

With this account you can change the role of your test user(s).

Have fun and please let me know how you get on.

Cheers

Andy

[cyclooctane]

Hi Andy

There seems to be no upper limit of the file size of the replay.
This is a major problem, because you can rename any file with a
.SC2replay file extension and upload it and it does not seem to stop
you.
I attempted to upload a 400mb file today and was stopped only when
firefox timed out on the page, after having transfered several hundred
MB.

I will open a bug request when I get a chance.

[cyclooctane]

At the very least, this sort of upload is able to cause a DOS attack.
At worst it may crash the site.

Regards

Cyclooctane

[Andy Pike]

OK, we'll need to think about this as we don't know the size of the file on client side. There may be some options with the new advances in modern browsers but if this is still the case then there isn't much we can do until it is on the server. We can then delete it of it's too big for example. Let me investigate options.

[paul burns]

Hi Andy

I know that PHP allows for server side checking of the file size and will throw an error in the event that the file is larger then a specified size.
It does this by reading the POST stream as it comes in and monitoring its length. (at least that is my understanding of it)
I do not know if there are any options in ruby to do this, although it seems like the simplest method.

Regards

Cyclooctane

[Adam Morehouse]

Give it a 500kb file size limit and walk away. We've rarely casted any game over 100kb let alone 500kb. Hell, you could cap it at 200kb.

Adam

[Chris Marks]

I was looking for a way to restrict this on the client side, and I believe I found something about JQuery being able to do something like that in certain browsers. As others have said, PHP has a way to do this on the client side, and PHP5 even knows how big an uploaded file is before the upload begins; I have to assume that Ruby has something similar that can be used. At the very least, I know Gmail uses a Flash plugin for file uploads, and that the plugin shows the size of the file as it's being uploaded, so something like that should be able to restrict large files on the client side.

[Andy Pike]

Thanks guys. There is an issue in github here: https://github.com/andypike/lagtv/issues/60 I'll comment there summarising what you have said here. It would help me if we keep the comments about an issue in github so I can review it all together :o) It's all good, thanks for the suggestions, there are a number of ways to do this very easily.

Cheers

[Ludi Productions]

Andy,

 

Were you able to read my post about the contributors' links going to a new window rather than a new page? This isn't an issue, but a suggestion.

 

Thanks!

Ludi

[Andy Pike]

Yeah, I made that change but another tester raised that as an issue. So on reflection I think it's best to stay in the same window as it is just another page within the same site. The other links move the user off to a different site so they should be in a new window.

That ok?

Sent from my iPad

[Ludi Productions]

Andy,

 

Yeah, it's perfectly ok with me for now. They can hit the back button to return to the previous page. No worries, suggestion dropped.

 

Ludi

[Ludi Productions]

Andy,

By the way, besides Adam and Jeff, is there going to be more than 1 person who will admin/moderate the forums? I figure lots of people may ask once it's up. I didn't know if Adam has you (maybe the mods on Adam's and Jeff's stream and/or possibly us) to control the forums. Also, will there be some type of rules people need to abide by when they are using the forums?

Thong

[Andy Pike]

Yeah, so Adam, Jeff and myself will be admins on the site. Adam will be asking other people of the community to be moderators and community managers. Moderators can manage the forums. CMs can also manage the forums, review/rate replays that are uploaded and also manage members (ban etc).

If anyone is interested in being either a moderator or a CM, watch out for news on this soon ;o)

Cheers

Andy

[Ludi Productions]

Hey guys, giving you an update on the website. I am finally done with coordinating all the posts to its relevant thread...whew, lol.

I also provided links of all the issues/suggestions that were addressed so everyone knows what's going on with the website and should hopefully minimize multiple posts. Some old threads will be open for feedback and some will be locked as we see fit.

I apologize for making these changes (moving and updating threads) every so often. Thought this was a faster way instead of accessing the website internally. These changes will allow us to get ready when the site becomes fully live.

Anyway, everything is updated on both ends and we should be alright for the time being. Without your guys' help, it would have taken a while to submit all those reports/suggestions since everyone is limited with work, class, etc. But I am impressed that we did it, :D

Well, time to get some good sleep, been getting 4 hours of sleep the last several days to make sure everyone is satisfied. Thanks again guys! Glad to be part of the team!

Hey guys, just wanted to get some thoughts from you guys.

Do you guys think we should have a "What's New?" page? In the "What's New?" page, only the admins, community managers, moderators, and dev team could only access/edit it and post upcoming news/updates about the website, instructions about tournaments/contests, etc. I think it will be the first thing people will check if they want some news about what Adam/Jeff is doing or wants to know what changes are coming up.

I know there are several threads in LAGTV, MOBA, Starcraft 2 where Adam, Jeff, and the others will post upcoming news, but we could forward people that are reading in the "What's New?" page to those threads.

I think by having a "What's New?" page would be great! It will be like a Newsletter. What do you guys think?
