The devs up at the top (here) needs updating.
How did you get the visitor stats? yikes
Search doesn't work yet.
The uploading form...
What's the third box for?
All the boxes should be the same height.
You should name the header, and have the links link to the anchor. Just feels better IMHO.
Scratch:
It shouldn't offer color as a shape.
It shouldn't offer files/colors as categories.
Also include for popular locations...
ScratchStageMorph
ScriptableScratchMorph
The "why?" link doesn't work (next to pass field).
It probably should be some JS like "javascript:passpage()"
BYOB:
Also, no colors/files. There should be "other" though.
The "path to block code image" should be clearer, if possible...

I have no clue how to use custom blocks!
However, I'd like a block that links to another site and instructions on how to put it in my project. Thank you!

The box heights can be fixed with CSS.

just so you know, if you need another member for the team, I'm available smile .

I know html/css, javascript and php, and I'm reasonably good at them.

If you need any info, just ask.

TheSuccessor · 2011-06-15 11:49:42

Bump.

ProgrammingFreak · 2011-06-15 15:35:47

What do I need to do?

scimonster · 2011-06-15 15:40:25

The connection has timed out

The server at theblocklibrary.site11.com is taking too long to respond.

Why does the homepage say "Error?"

That's the problem with free web hosting. It's not amazingly reliable.

A MySQL problem, probably. See previous comment. I thought it was neater than having PHP warning messages everywhere, so I programmed it in. Try again now.

sad I hope. Well, Sparks is doing a lot of exams right now, so he's busy. wink

Right, to those of you not following the block library thread, we're planning to have a competition to celebrate The 1 year Block Library anniversary! I've set up a page on the site Where entries can be submitted and displayed. Eventually each Scratcher will be able to submit as many entries as they like whist each Scratcher may vote once (I think probably IP based) The submissions and votes will be anonymous until the winner is chosen, then the winning Scratcher name and image will be revealed. I'm having trouble connecting to the 1yearcompentries table on the block library site so if one of the other site developers could go over my MySQL and see what's wrong I would appreciate it!

sparks · 2011-06-28 09:34:55

I also have no idea how to use the Scratch API to confirm a Scratch username and password. Someone needs to work that out!

scimonster · 2011-06-28 09:50:04

Whoops! Error 404

We don't seem to be able to find that file.

Use http://scratch.mit.edu/api/authenticate … ;password= to check.

sparks · 2011-06-29 06:00:46

I'm aware of the API, Sci, I just have not idea how to read the result into a php variable.

Check if it says false, and if not, then it worked.

sparks · 2011-06-29 08:26:24

No, I literally do NOT know the actually PHP code! I can't even get anything from it atm!
