Hi,
I am quite new to the forum so I have been just checking out the different categories and topics.
When it comes to the metin websites shared on here, backend wise they seem to be quite, well how to say this, not the most secure apps on the www + lets be real vanilla php is pain even with the newer versions.
As a website backend developer myself I was wondering if there is a cms writen in laravel yet.
If not, great! I would love to write is as I am going to need it in the future when I get to creating my own server anyway.
However I am not sure about all the features it would need, could you help me with getting them together?
Also I am not quite sure what is possible from the data sharing from the actual game server. Are the websites usually connected to the game Databases or do you just sync the needed data to a website DB every few minutes?
This is what I got so far:
Sign up/in | password reset, account editing in general
Blog
Some kind of characters detail
Player and guild leaderboard (Both as a separate page and a widget for the layout)
Server status (With channels and their status On/Off - possibly even player count)
Downloads -> for client
Wiki
Dragon coins shop (To buy the coins -> This could include have a gateway implemented, Stripe for example and some kind of invoicing 3rd party API)
General admin env. (including grids of all the necessary data {players, guilds, emails sent, logs, invoices, payments, orders})
Also is there some kind of front end template that is just used or does everyone actually write their own frontend from the scratch?
Thanks for any tips / advices.
