Unable to set Stats by FAQ instructions

[Yavanius]

When trying to add your UserID in the Stats Tool Configuration screen for a project,
you need to watch for any + characters. These are actually spaces.
When you click on a Project, then your Team, then your UserName you will see something
like this in that address bar of your browser.
In BOINC projects this will be your project member ID, not your CPID.

Example:
http://stats.free-dc.org/new/usersta...tch+Power+Cows
What you would need to paste as your UserID is everything after name= so you grab 402949Dutch+Power+Cows
Now you can see the + characters, so we need to take them out and replace them with spaces.
Here is what you would paste for your UserID: 402949Dutch Power Cows

I don't see any team name, just numbers...and there is NO userid field on the config page...

Following the instructions:

Click on a project (I chose SETI@home) then team (Project Blue Book):
http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?p...sah&team=30285

Click on username (Yavanius):
http://stats.free-dc.org/stats.php?p...sah&name=23087

Okay, maybe I just use the numbers: 2308730285

There's no place to put them in!?


Okay, maybe I need to try it from the Statstool Config page.

Let's select a project: SETI again, and UPDATE...

Nothing


Okay, let's try CLICKING on the project...

Top 10... Lots of nice charts...

Oh, up in the corner in the side menu... teams. Okay, maybe that's it...

Let's search the page for my team... not there. Uh oh, don't tell me...

First 100 teams... That means I would have to keep scrolling till I found it... (per the instructions, which doesn't even address this)

Out of curiousity, let's hover over one of the teams. Argh, no team name in the URL, just MORE numbers.


And, I'm back where I started many minutes later... O.o


I also tried plugging in just my CPID... which did absolutely nothing...

*SIGH* There's gotta be an easier way to do this like on BOINCstats...

statstool was really built prior to BOINC being around as away to group all the non boinc projects. If you don't run non BOINC projects it doesn't really provide anything for you as you can just use the userbycpid page instead.

Any stat page I go to has no info. Aside from manually looking up my name I can't get any stats...

I thought that the Config was to set up the pages. Else I don't see anyplace else to configure this... It seems to be CPID based, but I don't see how to enter/link that??

I was hoping to get this working now as my stats are screwy at BAM! and I wanted to see if I could get the Free-DC stats system configured and see how it worked (outside of the general lookups).

You could just use the search facility at the top to get here then link to your cpid page.

I will fix your statstool entry when I get back home tomorrow..

Arigato Mr. RoBokoto.

fixed your entry. Please let me know if it links correctly from the sidebar now when you are logged in.

I've not fixed the underlying reason. Perhaps I'll create a new one which just allows you to set your cpid and team only (for BOINC only users).
