How would you go about doing this? I'm willing to help, if you need? Knotrice 04:54, 1 June 2010 (PDT)
- The coding itself is fairly easy, the issue would be designing it (it can't be bulky, but has to give enough detail - I was thinking previous date, next date, link to tour page and link to previous and next tour dates if possible), putting it into EVERY tour page (there are a lot) and sorting through the fact we're missing many of the early shows. If you're any good with coding, try and design one (use your user page for now so it doesn't get in the way), or I'll stop being lazy and do a draft one sheepdean Try to speak as clearly as you can 05:02, 1 June 2010 (PDT)
- I've got this so far. How would I go about completing it? (This would be for the first show of the Self-Destruct tour, I think? Correct anything)
{{
| date = 1994/3/14
| title = Self-Destruct
| previous = N/A: first show
| following = 1994/03/15 Las Vegas, NV
}}

- Well, the code would look a bit more complicated - this is just me reusing my song succession box, but it's the same concept
|
| Previous show - "{{{previous}}}" |
|
|
|
|
| {{{date}}}, {{{title}}} |
|
|
|
|
| Next show - "{{{following}}}" |

- So your one would look like this
- The raw code is horrible to look at though, hit edit to see what I had to write to make that sheepdean Try to speak as clearly as you can 05:19, 1 June 2010 (PDT)
- Sweet Jesus.
- What are we going to do instead? Knotrice 05:25, 1 June 2010 (PDT)
- Additionally, why does it need to be so complex? Knotrice 05:26, 1 June 2010 (PDT)
- Well, those little template things you fill in are what we do on each individual page, That just gives you an idea of what we have to work with before we're settled that it looks good. The reason the raw code looks so complex is that all code looks like that - websites are handbuilt normally, and that means some poor soul has to type a lot of those. As it is, I don't quite like that box - personally I think it might be better at the top, or as a coloured sidebar - there's things to toy with, but if you're willing to start pasting them in, I can create the template and you can just pump in data sheepdean Try to speak as clearly as you can 05:31, 1 June 2010 (PDT)
- Sounds like a plan. Whip up any that you like and I'll fill in all the tours over the next week or two. Knotrice 05:40, 1 June 2010 (PDT)
