Summary0000579: soldat.pl website bugs
DescriptionCopyright © Transhuman Directive 2002-2012
    -should be Transhuman Design 2002-2014

remove : Popular Downloads
    -might distract people and they might accidently download outdated versions.
    -There is no purpose to have such downloads on the site

http://soldat.pl/en/downloads/ [^]
     -says "Soldat Dedicated Server 1.6.6 (v2.7.6)"
     -PolyWorks might be outdated
     -sort it by Game,Server,Tools
     -Game : Full download, Patch
     -Server: Full Server, Patch
     -Tools: "", "", Baka Admin / Arsee / ... ?

Screenshots:
     -remove the comics, tool screenshots
     -try to gather some HD screenshots (make a topic on the forum to ask for those)

Links:

     -several outdated pages here
     -sort it by priority
     -add a description to #soldatladder e.g "Rent free Soldatservers to play with your friends"
     
Leagues:

      -Polska Liga SIC - Soldat International Challenge
       ESL Soldat Ladders
       ASCTFL - Australian Soldat Capture the Flag League
       GameArena Soldat Ladder are dead

Shirts:
      - REALLY?

Chat:
      -doesn't have a default channel. People can't possibly know where to join
      -Use: http://webchat.quakenet.org/?channels=INSERT_THE_CHANNEL_NAME_HERE&uio=d4 [^] instead of the current one // replace INSERT_THE_CHANNEL_NAME_HERE with something like gather.eu soldat.match soldatladder soldat soldat.devs (you can add multiple channels with a "," e.g gather.eu,soldat.devs,...

Index Site:
      -"64 amazing maps" - I guess that one is wrong
      -maybe add something like "tons of community made gamemodes such as: CS, Zombie, Climbing, Volleyball, ..."


make it obvious that the game is under active development! This site does look exactly the same even if there is a brand new version releaed right on the day,..
Colorize the download button red if a new version was released lately, or use a popup or just add a banner "still deleiverd with updates!"

The login part on the top is rather useless by the way.
The whole website looks like a mobile version , can you possibly stretch it to fullscreen on the width? You could place much more content then.


However, I suggest to just move to WordPress. It would be the best you could possibly do.
Steps To Reproduce1) open your internet browser
2) type www.soldat.pl

* Copyright was fixed

* shirts will stay

* game still active and highlighted download button:
this needs more discussion i suggest a forum thread my current ideas for the record:
red button doesn't fit the site could use yellow button or a star
and text which shows the last update date (or something similar)

(this will not be fixed in this bugfix)

* stretching the site wont work because the title image is not that big and we have no big one. Create a forum thread about wide layout on soldat.pl site on the forums if you want this to happen.

(No change required for this in this bugfix)

* Use Wordpress:
There are other plans on how to change the site. (No change for this)

Also put sctfl.net to the Link area, since it's an actual active place. Should be either on leagues and on links.

* Screenshots cleaned up
* league links removed
* links changed/removed
* chat fixed

- sctfl stays in leagues
- soldatladder description not added because it is a channel where you get servers -> confusing
- not sure where and what description to knifeonly means
- Have no HD screenshots so didn't add any

# downloads will be fixed soon

* popular downloads on home page removed
* latest news on home page removed
* fix outdated polyworks download
* replace screenshots in screenshots section with 1920x1080 versions (for zoomed)
* replace screenshots on home page with large 1920x1080 versions (for zoomed)

stuff that still has to be done:
- fix server download is shown instead of soldat patch (needs to be done by jrgp)

Create a new ticked for this:
# add new downloads for important tools (please make a list with links)

everything else is either already done (see info above) or will not be done
