# Card Count Standardization Implementation Plan
|
|
**Date**: June 27, 2025
|
|
**Objective**: Fix critical card count inconsistency across detail pages
|
|
|
|
## Current State Analysis
|
|
|
|
### Park Detail Pages (GOOD STANDARD - 5 cards)
|
|
- **Location**: `templates/parks/park_detail.html`
|
|
- **Cards**: Total Rides, Roller Coasters, Status, Opened, Owner
|
|
- **Layout**: Horizontal stats bar using `grid-cols-2 md:grid-cols-4 lg:grid-cols-6`
|
|
- **Styling**: `bg-white rounded-lg shadow-lg dark:bg-gray-800 p-compact card-stats`
|
|
|
|
### Ride Detail Pages (CRITICAL ISSUE - Only 2 cards)
|
|
- **Location**: `templates/rides/ride_detail.html`
|
|
- **Current Cards**:
|
|
1. Ride Info Card (name, park, status, category, rating)
|
|
2. Stats and Quick Facts (height, speed, manufacturer, etc.)
|
|
- **Problem**: Severely sparse layout with excessive white space
|
|
- **Target**: Add 3 additional cards to match park standard
|
|
|
|
### Company Detail Pages (INCONSISTENT - 3-4 cards)
|
|
- **Location**: `templates/companies/manufacturer_detail.html`
|
|
- **Current Cards**: Company Info, Total Rides, Coasters, Founded (conditional)
|
|
- **Layout**: `grid-cols-1 md:grid-cols-4`
|
|
- **Target**: Add 1-2 additional cards for consistency
|
|
|
|
## Implementation Strategy
|
|
|
|
### Phase 1: Ride Detail Page Enhancement (Priority 1)
|
|
**Add 3 new cards to achieve 5-card standard:**
|
|
|
|
1. **Statistics Card**: Height, Speed, Duration, Inversions
|
|
2. **Experience Card**: Ride Type, Thrill Level, Age Requirements
|
|
3. **History Card**: Opening Date, Designer, Notable Facts
|
|
|
|
**Technical Approach:**
|
|
- Restructure header grid to use horizontal stats bar like park pages
|
|
- Move existing stats into dedicated cards
|
|
- Maintain responsive behavior across breakpoints
|
|
|
|
### Phase 2: Company Detail Page Enhancement (Priority 2)
|
|
**Add 1-2 new cards to achieve 5-card standard:**
|
|
|
|
1. **Specialties Card**: Primary ride types, Notable innovations
|
|
2. **History Card**: Year established, Key milestones
|
|
|
|
## Implementation Details
|
|
|
|
### Ride Detail Page Changes
|
|
**Current Structure:**
|
|
```html
|
|
<!-- Header Grid -->
|
|
<div class="grid grid-cols-1 gap-4 mb-6 lg:grid-cols-2">
|
|
<!-- Ride Info Card -->
|
|
<!-- Stats and Quick Facts -->
|
|
</div>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**New Structure:**
|
|
```html
|
|
<!-- Ride Header -->
|
|
<div class="p-compact mb-6 bg-white rounded-lg shadow-lg dark:bg-gray-800">
|
|
<!-- Ride name, park, status badges -->
|
|
</div>
|
|
|
|
<!-- Horizontal Stats Bar (5 cards) -->
|
|
<div class="grid grid-cols-2 gap-4 mb-6 md:grid-cols-3 lg:grid-cols-5">
|
|
<!-- Statistics Card -->
|
|
<!-- Experience Card -->
|
|
<!-- Manufacturer Card -->
|
|
<!-- History Card -->
|
|
<!-- Performance Card -->
|
|
</div>
|
|
```

|
|
## Success Metrics
|
|
- **Consistent Card Count**: 5 cards across all detail page types
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Testing Plan
|
|
1. Test ride detail pages for improved density
