 Posted: Sun Feb 29, 2004 3:59 pm Post subject: A searchable casino database will be available soon. |
 |
|
I will add a normal table (like the memberlist one but with a search) quite soon which lists all the casinos and gives links to the relevant discussion in the forum.
I will add all the details such as the company name and even bonus offers to the table but will continue to give most of these details in the forum threads too. I hope to also have links to each casino in the table which open inside another frame on the screen so you can easily check any terms and conditions and bonus offers.
The database structure hasn't been finalised but after this, the table should be up quite quickly and should prove very useful if it's kept updated (only registered users will have access to it). There are many casino groups not yet listed in the forum so it will take a while for the list to be comprehensive. |

| I've found some good lists around some sites, but a database sounds really brilliant. Well done. |

Just a note to say that I've put the Directory up but a lot of the data is missing. I also added a few more categories since I wrote the search function so you will now have to wait for all the categories to be searchable. Note that only the first search box is working at the moment.
The good news is that you should be able to update it yourself. Most of the regular forum members (who have won a prize draw) should be able to update the info on the casinos with no problem. Please don't worry about making mistakes because I can easily reverse any of the changes if necessary because a record of the changes are kept.
Those forum users who aren't able to immediately make changes, are still be able to suggest changes for later approval.
Any updates you make (that are approved and don't get reversed) will award you Credits (not sure how many yet) so please take some time to update a few things. I've tried to make it very easy. I only wrote the method for updating the entries yesterday, so it's much easier for me now too than it used to be when I had to access the database differently!
One problem is most of the site addresses have gone missing due to an error! If you click on a casino in the directory and the update screen appears instead of the casino site, then please add the site address where it says URL in the update form. |

I just went and checked out the database and I'd like to say thank you for all the hard work you put into getting all the pertinent info together for us. You have done a wonderful job and I will most certainly use it!
You're awesome!!

I have recently been mainly concentrating on technical aspects of the site but when all of that is done you will see a lot more comprehensive and exclusive information about casinos in the Directory and forum.
The reason I have not recently added casino groups to the forum is that they'll be linked to the casino directory database in the future to make it easier to manage and change the information. It is relatively easy at the moment to change the info in the directory but it will soon be more involved with the casino group's forum thread and create new groups and info automatically in the forum when info and news concerning it is added to the directory. I wanted to have these features before taking the time to add the casino information to the directory which is why it hasn't been updated for a while.
The Casino Directory will be much improved and will be able to store an in-depth history of each casino and also the ability to go back to any point in the past 10 years in the industry and see in the directory how many casinos there were and who owned them and all their details at any point in time.
No other site can do this. Unfortunately it will take a lot of time to add the information for each casino, but the new structure will make it easy to manage so I can steadily add all the information myself. The new Directory will be up within a few weeks. |

| I've started to add history to the casinos in the database. It is incorporated into the updating of the casino database info that any member can do. I'm the only one that can add history to the casinos though and it will take some time. At the moment there is just a bit of history for InterCasino US and INetbet. |
