DM,
Is there a way to automatically have the stats/totals for my BBS entry update automatically, as if I deleted/re-added my entry as part of maintanance? I noticed that I have the ability to edit my totals manually, but I was wondering if there was some way to automate as part of maintenance. I looked at http://wiki.synchro.net/module:sbbslist?s[]=bbs&s[]=list
Is this something that the sbbslist,js -update command can do? I saw the wiki comment "Many commands are only there for trouble-shooting or experimental purposes." and I didn't know if this was just for trouble-shooting.
What you're describing is exactly what the "sbbslist.js -update" command does. If you compare your BBS entry in sbbslist.json before/after running that command, you should see the "total" object's properties change to reflect your current system stats (assuming they've changed). You can look at case "update" in exec/sbbslist.js for how it works.
