Just to let everyone know, the "spider" is currently not working. Well - it hasn't been working since we moved to the group format, but it hasn't been an issue because I can see the most recent edits in the wiki.

However, I just found out how to get a view of recent edits including the FIRST LINE from each page! This basically renders the need for the spider obsolete.

As a result however, everyone will need to make sure that activity lines are on that first line of the post. You can double check by viewing what I'll be looking at (here).

If anyone knows of a way to present the team roster/character roster with a line for each - that would be awesome. For now though - the page I linked above will work quite well for me.

I'm not sure what you mean by a line for each - did you want team to show up as one line on the page you linked?

Anyway, I reformatted the title line for one of my teams. Does this help you at all when viewing the linked page?

Yes it helps - but it doesn't need to be that way.

The spider, when it was working, spat out the name of the team/character and then the first few lines of the sheet - all on one line. This was very easy to view the roster and to see who was active.

The page I referenced above essentially does the same except it has it all on multiple lines and includes all of the "other" pages that were modified recently.

Best case scenario - I find a way to output the first line of each character/team in its own page so that it updates automatically. In the mean time though - the above referenced page is better than going in and checking activity by clicking on each team one by one.

However, the ultimate thing here is to ensure that the 1st line of all characters/teams includes their readiness (READY , FULL ACTIVITY , INACTIVE (date optional), QUEST (date, questlord), CAMPAIGN (date, campaignlord, name of campaign), etc)
