Category: <b>Site</b><br><br>I have been wanting to post about all the recent changes we have done to the site but also wanted to wait until we had a bunch done. So I have just finished up the latest addition to Emulation64 and figured now would be a good time to go over all the recent changes.
- News and File Search - I have added search features for both the news database and the file database.
- File Database Reorganization - I have reorganized the file database and now we have them separated into consoles, handhelds, computer, arcade and misc sections (Thanks to PsyMan for the suggestion). Along with the search engine it should be a bit easier to find what you are looking for.
- News Archive - I have added a news archive and also made a new category list so you can easily view news by either month or by category.
- Redid The Guides Navigation - When the sites merged I was short on time so I had to write the guides script in about a day so I didn't have time to come up with something nicer at the time. So I have redone the guides navigation when viewing a guide and also added Previous and Next links (uses page titles). Looks much better now and the guides can now use the wasted space.
- Added a Main Menu - I added a main menu to the top right area of the menus. We are really starting to expand a lot and there is no room for more links at the top left of the site so I needed to make a menu. The menu lists all our major areas as well as a few useful things such as the news archive and RSS feed.
- News Credit System - I have also created a new feature for Emulation64. I wanted to way to give thanks and link back to sites that credit us for news. So I figured it would be cool to make an area where we could list the latest sites who have credited us for news. It basically shows the site name which is linkable to the site and the poster, post and date. It will list the last 50 credits and eventually when have more added we will add some cool stats such as top credit posters and top credit sites as well as an archive.
Whoo .. ok thats enough for now. I have also done some admin stuff that won't be very interesting to you guys and currently PsyMan and Gent are working on adding missing files to the database as well as updating outdated stuff. Jakob is working on adding his gallery script to the site which is very nice. Dark Watcher has added in a few of his guides from EmuFanatics and will be adding more soon. So as you can see we have been pretty busy and things are going great and its nice to see the merge working out so nice for everyone. Thanks for all the hard work guys lets keep it up.
