LFTplatform

LFTplatform is a Django-based platform designed to facilitate management of guilds and their teams in MMO projects. It allows users to create, update, and manage guilds, teams, characters, and recruitment with additional functionality for filtering and searching based on various criteria.

Project was commissioned by one of the largest European MMO gaming communities and is currently undergoing active testing. It aims to streamline and unify the recruitment process, moving it from Discord channels to a structured and organized platform. Recruiters can create guilds, provide all relevant links, add teams, specify activity times, and indicate the types of players they are looking for. Players searching for a guild can filter existing guilds and choose the one that suits them best.

This project is primarily aimed at owners of MMO Discord community servers.

Features

• Guild Management: Create and manage guilds, including administrative tools.

• Team Management: Organize teams within guilds, with roles and permissions.

• Recruitment Tools: Easily manage and track recruits across guilds and teams.

• Character Management: Manage player characters, including details and specs.

• Advanced Filtering Options: Filter guilds and teams by faction, activity times, team size, loot system, classes, and specific specs.

Discord Integration

LFTplatform includes integration with Discord for authentication and authorization purposes:

• Use Discord OAuth2 for user/recruiter authentication.
• Enable Discord authorization for a seamless login experience.
• Extend community engagement with integrated Discord features.
• Check user roles on Discord servers for specific permissions (e.g., recruiter or recruit).
