## Description

tribe aims to provide team leaders with all the tools they’ll need in order to maintain
a web presence for their team. It provides both public facing pages and widgets 
as well as the administration screens to manage members, matches, etc.

Currently in development, this plugin will see rapid change as it is developed alongside
[my team’s web site](http://www.teaminq.com/).

Planned features include

 * Roster and member profile management integrated with WordPress’ existing user
   system.
 * Enhanced user profiles including photo, location, age, system specs, and team
   specific info (date joined, favorite loadout, etc).
 * Member blogs so that your team members can have their own voice on their teams
   site.
 * View your match history and plan your upcoming match by letting your members 
   note their intent to attend.

Feel free to try it out the development version as-is, but please consider that 
until 1.0 it will be incomplete.

### Usage Guide

#### Member Roles

In tribe, some of the default WordPress user roles are replaced by team-specific
ones. Administrator becomes Team Captain, Editor becomes Coordinator, and Author
becomes Member. This allows you to organize your team’s roster while providing varying
levels of administrative access to your team leaders. Note: the ‘admin’ user is 
excluded from being a team member.

#### Profile extension

tribe adds fields to each user’s profile for team-related information. These fields
include:

 * Status (Active, Inactive)
 * Join Date
 * Age
 * Location
 * Quote
 * System Specs
 * Q & A

In the main plugin options page, any Team Captain can create ‘Questions’ which will
be displayed on each member’s profile admin screen. Your team members can answer
these questions so that the resulting Q&A can be displayed on their profile page.

#### Categories

Upon activation, tribe will create various categories. These are:

 * Team News
 * Members

Any post which is assigned to the ‘Team News’ category will automatically have its
comments and pings disabled. In the future, this will be a plugin option.

Underneath the ‘Members’ category, a category will be created for each team member.
Currently any member can post to any category, but I may add in some extra permission
code in the future. For now just tell your team to keep it to their own category!:]
By having separate categories for each member, it allows you to have links such 
as the following: http://www.yourteam.com/blogs/members/nickname. (tribe defaults
your category base to ‘/blogs’, this can be changed under Options -> Permalinks)

#### Pages

Upon activation, tribe will also create various pages. These are:

 * Roster

Underneath the ‘Roster’ page, a page will be created for each team member. When 
the ‘Roster’ page is viewed, the plugin will instead display the ‘roster.php’ template
located in the plugin directory. To override this template, copy it into your theme
directory and edit as needed. Use the `tribe::get_members($type)` function to retrieve
you team members.

When any page underneath ‘Roster’ is viewed, the plugin will instead display the‘
profile.php’ template located in the plugin directory. To override this template,
copy it into your theme directory and edit as needed.

Remember to keep the original templates in the plugin directory in case your alterations
break the template and you need to start over.

## Installation

 1. Upload all plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/tribe/` directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. Enjoy! Please read the detailed usage guide for more information

## FAQ

  What about MMO guilds?

Currently the design of tribe is centered around competitive teams playing FPS games.
As the plugin matures, more general team management things may be introduced, but
its focus will remain the same. (i.e. I don’t ever foresee a DKP system being coded
into tribe)
