Can a new WCG Team Thread URL area be added to the team information on a teams statistics page or perhaps lengthen the Home Page URL area so it could be used.
----------------------------------------When I tried to edit my teams information on the statistics page by adding the url for the team's WCG forum thread it gets truncated. As a team captain, I get these instructions. "Note: You will be listed as the Team Captain. As team captain, other members of your team may wish to contact you. It is your responsibility to facilitate such communications. World Community Grid has provided a forum for team communications." However, I don't know how to let the other team members become aware of the WCG forum or of our teams thread and I thought I could put something in the team description, but that looked messy and was awkward as the url was not clickable. So I thought I would say something in the description about clicking on the home page link below but when I tried to add the thread url as the team's home page url, it was truncated. http://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/forums/wcg/viewthread?thread=1803 So I settled for simply adding the following to the team's description - "Please feel free to post a message on our team's WCG forum thread." What do you think - in the forum we point to our teams statistics page, why not have the teams statistics page point to our team's forum thread. Any help and support would be appreciated. Let's keep folding those proteins... ![]() ---------------------------------------- [Edit 2 times, last edit by ski1939 at Feb 16, 2005 11:58:27 PM] |

You're right. That is an oversight on our part. I've changed the max field length to accomodate longer URLs. This option will be available when the new version of the site is put into production (end of Feb/early March).
Thanks for bringing this to our attention. Nels |

Hi nelsoc/Nels - Thank you for increasing the maximum field length of the Home Page URL area on a Team's Statistics Page. It is now long enough to accommodate the url for a Team's WCG forum thread. You deserve a well done and high fives all around for following through on my suggestion. Let's keep folding those proteins... .. United States Marine Corps .. |

If you've got any other suggestions, we'd love to hear them! Especially the ones that only take 5 minutes to fix!
