FHM12 Portal

Goalie39 · 02-22-2026, 04:33 PM

Since FHM12 was released earlier this season, I’ve been working with the CSV files to build a portal site for various leagues. It’s not quite ready for prime time yet, but I think it’s far enough along to give the community a look at what I’ve been working on.

Here is my portal site for my custom league:
https://fhm12.great-site.net//index.php

This portal isn’t meant to replace the game, but to serve as a companion when you’re away from it.

I’d love to hear your thoughts.

I'm sold! I'm definitely invest in this for my leagues.

When you expand the features, let me know! :-)

Sent you a DM.

Nice work dude, this looks really cool. What language/libraries are you using to build it?

I've long since had delusions of grandeur for building a client that would allow an online league to complete their draft via it's hosted interface...we have a similar user made tool in the Front Office Football leagues that I am in and it makes drafting a lot more streamlined than it currently is for FHM online leagues. The Github repo is public - if you're ever interested in taking a look or discussing the implementation of something like that hit me up and I'd be happy to go into more detail about it. It's a little tricky with the data from the game that we have to work with currently, it's not entirely tailored to fit the process but it's do-able with some work arounds.

I built this using only PHP scripting and the CSV files generated during export.

My goal was to create a simple, low‑maintenance solution for updating the webpages without needing to build and manage an SQL database. With this setup, you only need to upload 15 specific CSV files to update the entire site.

The downside is that the system is limited by the amount of memory available on your hosting server. I was able to optimize the PHP files well enough to run a site with all playable leagues enabled on the standard game with a basic HostGator hosting plan.

However, certain features—like boxscores—aren’t feasible. The boxscore CSVs are split across multiple large files that grow significantly over time, requiring far more resources than a shared server can provide. That’s why the site can display previous scores easily but cannot generate full boxscores.

My intention wasn’t to replace the game’s built‑in data tools, but to offer users a convenient way to view game content when they’re away from their computers.

I don't know if you guys saw all of the pages:

Skater Profile: https://fhm12.great-site.net/profile.php?playerId=212
Goalie Profile: https://fhm12.great-site.net/profile.php?playerId=240
Team Profile: https://fhm12.great-site.net/team.php?team=1
Free Agents: https://fhm12.great-site.net/freeagents.php
NextGen Stats: https://fhm12.great-site.net/nextgen.php

I also have a draft page but that requires playing out the first year to display

All of these pages are found on the portal site.

Looks great mate, would be cool to be able to see the players bars/ratings on the same screen as their stats - seems like there is space to include that but I'm viewing on an ultra wide monitor so I guess it's different for diff resolutions.

-added a new Contracts Page to each team page

It looks great. Really cool and when it will be available i will test it for sure

I use another great tool at the moment but it could be a very cool addon to my league.

Do you have an ETA ???
