THE OFFICIAL WORLD WAR II ONLINE™ RINGS

 

» FAQ/Help

Designed especially for new and existing Official World War II Online™ Ring and World War II Online Axis Ring™ members, here's a few tips aimed at simple inclusion of your HTML code on your website.

» I joined one of the rings and haven't been added to the list yet. Why not?

You must have your HTML code placed on the URL you submitted before you can be added to either The Official World War II Online™ Ring or the World War II Online™ Axis Ring. We cannot make exceptions. You should email the ringmaster of the ring you have joined after adding your HTML code to its proper location. This speeds things up for you and helps us as well.
» My HTML Code is coming up as text on my webpage
Are you using a free webhost such as Geocities? If you don't have FTP access to your website files and rely on a webhost provided online html editor, you may experience problems. For Geocities, simply use their text-based html editor to place your HTML code.
» I'm using frames on my website. Do I need to do anything special for list inclusion?

Yes. You do. You must enter the exact url of the file your HTML code is placed - not your index/main file - in your webring account information. No worries, though. If you noticed upon registration, there are two url fields. Site URL is the web address you wish people to enter your site at.. such as http://yoursite.com. HTML Code URL is the actual file your HTML code resides. So if your HTML code is placed for example, on side.html, which is part of your frameset, you should enter http://yoursite.com/side.html in the HTML Code URL field. This keeps our ringcheckers from flagging your site as noncompliant.

» Can I modify my HTML Code?

We prefer you do not, but we'll allow it. You must keep the following links intact to avoid deactivation or denial of ring inclusion:

<a href="http://ring.wwiionline.com/list.pl?ringid=RINGID;siteid=YOURSITEID">LIST</a>
<a href="http://ring.wwiionline.com/home.pl?ringid=RINGID;siteid=YOURSITEID"> HOME</a>
<a href="http://ring.wwiionline.com/rand.pl?ringid=RINGID;siteid=YOURSITEID"> RANDOM</a>
<a href="http://ring.wwiionline.com/next.pl?ringid=RINGID;siteid=YOURSITEID">NEXT</a>
<ahref="http://ring.wwiionline.com/prev.pl?ringid=RINGID;siteid=YOURSITEID">PREVIOUS</a>

They can be in any order you wish, you may remove any provided image from either The Official World War II Online™ Ring and/or The World War II Online™ Axis Ring and replace with simple text links (The Smoking Wrecks has an example of "text-based"), and you're free to create your own image provided it is of good "taste" and you don't mind other webring members downloading and copying your creation from your website.

What ring images are available?

The Official World War II Online™ Ring offer several versions of camoflauge images for you to choose from. They're all listed here.The World War II Online™ Axis Ring at this time only offers one.

» I need a new copy of my HTML code. Where do I find it?

Visit Ringmember Login! Everything you need to maintain your account is there!

» I just received a deactivation email. How do I get back on the list?

If you received a deactivation email, there's something wrong with your HTML code. Is it on the HTML Code URL you submitted? Are there any broken links in the code? Have you recently moved your website url? The possibilities are many. If everything's A-OK on your end, email the ringmaster of the ring you joined to find out further information.
