Guild pages: a free website and raid tools for your WoW Forever guild
· ForeverDB
Every guild on ForeverDB can now have its own site at yourguild.foreverdb.net, with a raid calendar and sign-ups, raid groups, loot and attendance, recruiting, Discord reminders and a members' side. It's free, and an officer sets it up in a few minutes.
Guild pages are open to every WoW Forever guild. A Guild Master or officer sets one up from guild tools, claims a short address such as ashen-vanguard.foreverdb.net, and the guild has a website with nothing to host and no fee. Find yours, or see what other guilds have made, on Guild pages, which is now in the menu at the top of every page.
What visitors see
A new page opens in the Cinematic layout: a full-width header over a loading screen from the game, the guild's raid week in each visitor's own time, raid progress with every boss, the raid groups with who plays what and which seats are open, and the members whose owners made their armory page public. There are seven other layouts to choose from, eight colour themes, and pages of the guild's own: a raid page, a Join us page and anything else the officers want to write.
Link the guild's Discord server and the page shows how many members it has and how many are online, its next scheduled event and a Join button, refreshed every few hours.
The raid side
- A calendar with sign-ups by character and role, and Discord reminders and sign-up cards through the ForeverDB bot.
- Raid groups with core, trial and bench spots, and each event can belong to one group.
- Soft reserves, a loot log and attendance, and a wishlist where members order the items they want.
- A roster audit for officers, and a Performance tab built from the guild's uploaded combat logs.
The members' side
Behind the public page sit the guild's own tools on the same address, for members who log in with Battle.net: announcements, guild news, a forum, a wiki, picture albums, points and awards, and tasks with Discord reminders. The Guild Master decides which ranks can do what, and can make the whole page members-only. Every guild with a page also gets its own Group on Social, a feed only its verified members can see.
Setting one up
Open guild tools, pick your guild and choose the Guild page tab. ForeverDB knows who's in a guild from its members' addon uploads, so only an officer of that guild can set up its page and claim its address. Each guild has one address, first come, first served.
