WoW Realm Status
★★★
Would've rated higher but...

WoW Realm Status
There doesn't seem to be any error-handling with this module. It works when Blizzard is 100% up. However, if anything goes wrong at Blizzard, this module will actually crash hard enough to prevent your site from being seen by the public. Luckily the admin area was accessible and I could disable this module.

The fix would be to display a "?" or something similar if the module has trouble communicating with Blizzard or if an unexpected error comes up.
Owner's reply

I'm kind of sad that you rate the module before contacting me.
This is a temporary issue which will be fixed within 2-3 days from now. Your rating is now set to 3 stars whether the error is fixed or not.

I'll understand that an error can be very annoying but it is also very annoying if you put a lot of your into such projects and people react like this.

Anyway, this error was caused by the new way blizzard handles maintenance. Instead of being not available as hole,
a site is there and some content is delivered. This caused the module to throw errors cause it tried to parse the delivered content.

I implement a fix that stops on errors and displays a message that the blizz servers a most likely in maintenance.

Not exactly what I was looking for.

Progress Bar
With this extension you can create ONE progress bar. The setup is simple, installation was quick and easy and all-around it will work if you need to show the progress of a charity's fun-raising event or similar.
