Sarjuuk 9019c3b811 Types 
dropped single-item classes for all types, because it doesn't make much difference to use a list with a single item instead, especially if it's preselected. Additionally it is now easier to chain certain queries together and execute them all at once. additionally, additionally certain data can now be cahced and shared between types of the same .. type, that were previously in different instances alltogether.

And you may now specify a limit to sql-queries (while setting up a typeList), it will default to the config-limit if no value is given.

README 

TrinityCore database World of Warcraft 3.3.5 (build 12340)

I myself take no credit for the clientside scripting, design and layout that these php-scripts cater to!
This project is not meant to be used for commercial puposes of any kind!


BASIC PREMISE:


1) The current implementation is a mess, at least in part being droped and picked up again by a dozen people over several years, without coordination.
- heap of functions
- files cross-including each other
- global variables in most functions, some even being written
- naming conventions...
- localization through Smarty AND per variable
- incomprehensible russian comments and page-texts

solution:
Me, being the next in line to pick this project up and create an even bigger mess! (hopefully not)


2) The idea of a _real_ live-database will not work:
- page build times for up to 30sec masked by caching are inacceptable
- some listviews require rediculous joins to get their required data

solution:
The database has to be designed specific to the needs of aowow. Possibly create tables with custom data to JOIN-ammend on world-tables (read: sub-sub-classes of items)
There should be a script to regenerate the tables depending on what data changes.
Idealy a setup-script would be present, or at least a sql-dump .. or at the very least a manual, where to get the data from.


3) Misc:
- remove template choices .. honestly who would use something else than the current Javascripts
- expand functionality: ItemComparison, filters, profiler, ect are completely missing
- some sort of documentation .. well ... at least to keep this in mind


THANKS:
mix: for providing the php-script to parse .blp and .dbc into usable images and tables; also the zones-pages his work
LordJZ: the wrapper-class for DBSimple; the basic idea for the user-class
kliver: basic implementation of screenshot uploads

SPECIAL THANKS:
Wowhead: For providing this beautifull website!
    Please do not reagard this project as blatant rip-off, rather as "We do really like your presentation, but sadly you're no longer supplying the data we need".
