  </script>

• Pages do not load the carrousel at the top
• Add quick voting like in vegas site so we an update aggregateRatings for games and casinos
• Change old library html-minifier for https://www.npmjs.com/package/html-minifier-terser
• Create a pill for all listed casinos with Paid reviews (extreme transparency)
• Bonus at the bonus page should be of our top/paid partners only.
• Content: National Casino is setup as an Argentinian casino but it works great for Brazil (it seems)
• Blog articles have their date in english. Eg. June 14, 2018
• Create one landing page as the end of funnel to complement adboxes, where the bell and bonus page will be. Maybe in the same url.
• Add main casino promo to the casino reputation popup
• Add front-matter for blacklisted casinos
• Have one carrousel for each language
• Create a filter to filter tags by language name insted of adding if statements (gameslist)
• Top casinos for games section (commented)
• subcats-carrousel.njk not being used for games categories page at the moment. This could be useful for tagging games like "featured" or "Hold&Win", etc
• Create the casinos-filter.njk specially for crypto.
• Add again the count of casinos where the provider is (in providers game screen)
• For parsing FrontMatter (in the future, I want to bulk edit stuff), https://www.npmjs.com/package/front-matter
• Add more casino metadata (now commented, like Withdrawal time, etc)
• Add popup subscription
• Casino bottom promotions are hidden, maybe add a CTA.
• Currently when there is a bonus page for the casino bonus, the bonus box in the casino page is not related to the actual bonus page info but duplicated in the casino and bonus front-matters.

Bugs

• Modal keeps rolling iframe when closed
• When a game is available in just one language, the lang switches goes bezerk

Conventions

In case you live in this online iGaming underworld and are trying to use this Eleventy template setup for your affiliate site, please consider:

• Game images are being loaded by slug name, {{fileSlug}}-hero.webp, {{fileSlug}}-logo.webp and {{fileSlug}}-splash.webp. Same images are used for all languages.

• Some games can be highlighted using the front-matter property: gameListFeatured: true

• Same for provider images, they will use: {{fileSlug}}-logo.webp, and {{fileSlug}}-character.webp

• Game categories should include a front matter pointing to the category game slug gamesFrom: slot

• For big sites, considering increasing NodeJs memory limit: export NODE_OPTIONS=--max_old_space_size=5012

• Two conversion boxes: "components/bz-banner-hero.njk", "components/bz-subscribe.njk" and one landing page as end-of-funnel.

• For casinos without the bonus.link front-matter then the theme will grab the link from languages[page.lang].promo.url

• Bonus post types can have a bonus.image for the background image of the box, or else the system will pick up the default site-wide background image for bonuses.
