Game Design

For Data Entry on the web - WordPress works well. Add to it a few plug-ins:
1. Custom Post Type UI - this lets you create custom post types - when a user saves to your site, it is a "post" and goes into a generic folder called "Posts". By using this tool, you can create new folders such as "My Positions", "My Actions", "My Players", etc. to put posts that the player make through your input pages into different folders.
2. The next three are all for fill in the blank forms -
a) Advanced Custom Fields PRO (the pro version allows repeating fields which is pretty handy). This lets you define fields to hold your data.
b) Advanced Forms PRO (displays collections of Fields defined in (a).
c) Advanced Custom Fields: Custom Database Tables - this lets you store the results from you forms into specific tables in the database
This got me close to what I wanted for data entry, but I added a custom plug-in that I wrote in PHP to handle returning players wanted to edit previously submitted turns. If you are interested we can dive into that.
