What exactly you need?
...ah... looks like coma is admitting to his guilty secrets of webmastering
Same reason my website got left behind as why fitware got left behind...need broadband!
But yeah if i know what the score is im sure i could help out, Pm'd my email coney
If I lock it, then you can't reply on it.... I'll keep looking.
- obligatory world domination mission statement/recruitment/propaganda from Sir Mr C
- a space where people can post race times/stats and reports
- latest news
- latest offers
- diary of upcoming races
- bike porn
help me out, there must be more!
The website comes with some fancy stuff including blogs and forums. I'll check if it has one, but a wiki maybe handy where all those invaluable tips from the forum can be filed away. Ideas for later maybe.
In term of admin, the site has email addresses (1000 of em) so maybe a distribution list for the webdudes?
Ive finally knocked something up so go along and checkout http://bcttt.com/ Theres not too much there at the moment, but its a starting point for the development so lets get your ideas!
You will be able to create a user account and then post up your results, event photos, perhaps race reports as well? for the world to see just how great BCTTT are!
Let me and Steve know your thoughts!
A link to key races of the season - just some closed links to Human Race...Mazda etc and some others...oops just noticed that's already on the list...
People want to hear about training, how to train, food, misc tri info etc etc especially if your going down the informative route.
Great job
Should there be a members only area (username & password)
on the idea of a wiki, we tried it with my bike club (northwestbikers.net)...(oh motorbikes btw...not cycling) and we found it was just open to attack....spammers etc..and we all know there are loads that have a go at that...so i'm not too keen on that.
As i wont be on the regional revolutionary council (conehead is already looking after the NW) i'm happy to help out with the site (especially from a mod/admin point of view on the forum) and have spoke to Dan about this via email..i have plenty of time on my hands so should be able to bring something to the table on this.
Yes you will all be able to sign up to the website, but there will be a privs scheme in place, this is what im thinking at the mo:
General Site sign up = gives you access to view and post comments on public articles only (i.e news on the home page)
Members = Members will sign up like normal, once signed up they can put in there real name and membership number etc and press a button called 'validate as member'. This will ping me, conehead or someone and we will automaticly check off your name against the current members list and give you member privelges. Member privs will include the ability to upload race photos to the gallery, post results, and post race reports. Members will also get access to members only pages such as the discounts page and a tips/tricks/special members only articles page. And any other thing you think members should have!
Regional leaders = they will have all the abilities of the members, however they will also be able to post news which will appear on the main home page.
Podcasts, videos etc. can be submitted by any member, but will only be downloadable by other members?
Oh and yes and for the forum I was thinking of a phpBB, but i was thinking of using a forum which could be intergrated into the WP backend of the site, using the same user database (so you dont have to sign up to the forum AND the website seperatly). I have to check both of these routes out though! For now it may be easier just to use phpBB, so admins will be needed to stop spam such as what appears on here quite frequently.
Let me know how this sounds, and keep the suggestions coming!

www.subfighter.com does this. Take a look at their website, its quite similar in design to yours (news, forums, login etc etc)
