I was looking in the GW Store and the MegaNobz are gone from the online
store... guess those new model changes hit.

Anything else noticeable that's missing?

Why aren't their pages amended offline and swapped transparently?
And if you think it's confusing now, just wait a month or two.
The GWUS Chaos page was amended October last.

It's still a mess.

I suspect the *idea* was to rotate old merch into the virtual Classic
bin.
I'm no IT pro, but a simple method comes to mind:

1. The old store links will simply bring up the new SKU page.
2. A Classic line added beneath links to the old SKU page.
3. Retool the parent page to be in line with the new Codex.
Real effort would be needed to bollix so simple a process.

But, it seems they're up to that challenge . . .

If they had a semi-competent design crew, it should be easy. I'd go
with a simple database with part number, name, description, image URL,
price, army, organization (Troops, Fast Attack, Core Unit, etc.), and
introduction month and year (so newer releases can show up on the
front). Once you have that set up, you can code a handful of pages to
do everything else automatically.

Of course, that would make sense and be efficient...

Right and how does that interface with their manufacturing and inventory
management systems?

A lot easier than what seems to be basic HTML pages. There's a LOT of
pre-made software which will do that sort of thing, you can pick up a
package and have your crew re-work it to suit your company.

Tis true, I write anything from systems that integrate directly with the
likes of RMS to something that can interface with bespoke systems.

It also would not need to interface with the manufacturing systems.

How do you know it is human generated HTML not machine generated HTML?
This is just another thing you're not an expert in Erik.

Right, I'm not so sure you're an expert either. But if that's machine
generated, it's pretty darn shoddy.

And here's where the issue of credibility comes in. I'm pretty much going to
just assume that Robert is correct and you are wrong based on past history.
And I haven't even been paying attention to what this thread is discussing.

Everything needs to interface with everything (I'm an Enterprise Architect

No that's explained by the fact that they stopped so only the old guys show
the damage. Everyone else who had the problem was shot within 15 seconds
of teleporting to a planet's service. Except for Bones who used to wear a
tin foil beanie.

I wonder why you feel the uncontrolable urge to post complete nonsense in
almost every thread.

Nah, you've never shown any sign of every doing anything as sensible as
that.
