WoW Progress Tracker

Hello and welcome to the WoW Progress preview page!
This is a module for Joomla! 1.7 (legacy version: 1.5)
As you can see on the right there is a set of progress blocks, rapresenting the progress of a group of players (it is a single instance of the module). The basic module options are really few (region, server, guild, language), but you can completely change its graphics just using the advanced parameters to add background images, colors and so on (CSS code). Data is loaded dynamically from the Battle.Net Armory thanks to the brand-new WoW Battle.Net SDK (made by myself and still in development). The modules are loaded real-time, this means that it will take the same time to load on your site too (they're not fake, but fully-functional progress blocks).
How to install and setup the trackers:
1. Download and install the extension. In case you want to install the 3.x legacy one, always install both the component and the module of the same version.
2. Go to the modules manager and create a new one, selecting "WoW Progress Tracker" as the type.
3. In the module settings set the raid(s), the region (supported are EU, US, KR and TW), the server name, the representative character and the displaying language (de, en, es, fr, ko, ru, zh, depending on the region).
4. If you want to alter the appearance of the module, editing the two style files (style.css and vtip.css). Also in the bundle there is the GIMP template used for creating the images.
That's all!
The system will update the scores all the times you refresh the page.
Buying the package will grant you the possibility to download the full package and all the future updates. It will also grant e-mail support in case of troubles, questions or suggestions.

The cost of the bundle is €2,95
Once your transaction is considered "Completed", use the TRACKER DL module on the right to download it, using your PayPal email and the Transaction ID (email me if PayPal doesn't give it to you). Please note that Internet Explorer is not supported, as it will let you download a corrupted file. Some users reported that the downloaded file may have no extension: in this case, manually add .zip to it.

- Standardised com and mod names: please uninstall and install the new ones (do not upgrade)
