it would be nice if I could specify a minimum number of entrants. For example, I may want 100 people to enter the drawing before a winner is selected. I would use this with or without the raffle start/end dates.

I saw that you were going to draw after I think it was 300 entries just after you put that raffle up, thought it was a good idea and coded the option. It immediately draws the raffle after the entry limit is reached.

So it does exist, it just hasn't been blended into a release yet. But to be painfully honest.. I may reserve that for a paid version of the raffle system. We'll see how things go.

nhawk, I know that you were debating whether we'd have a version available for 3.8x .... any new thoughts on it?

I love what you've done and I love the template edits by ChromeDome :)

Nhawk, I'd be interested in hearing what will be in the "pro" version of the script. It's a great script!

Thanks MTP! ;)

I still might.

I have installed 3.8 on my development server, so I'm one step closed to starting. ;)

At the moment, I'm still not 100% sure that I want to go with a "pro" version. I have to weigh the cost of bringing a site online to support it versus the return on investment. And I really didn't start doing mods for the cash. I actually enjoy coding. But after releasing a few mods, I understand why many people have gone in that direction or stopped releasing/supporting their mods completely. I don't think people realize how much work goes into some mods. In any case, it's a decision I need to make that can be influenced greatly by people hitting the 'support developer' button. Not only for my mods, but for any mod people use, by any author.

Unless someone has more suggestions, as it stands now there would only be two additional features. The ability to restrict access by geographic location (country) and the ablility to draw after x entries.

Well for what its worth I appreciate your effort. I know that it may feel challenging sometimes with some of the questions and comments but I know a lot of us here do appreciate it.
It is developers like you that make our product/s great!!

Keep up the great work!!!:up::)

Not sure what I'm doing wrong but everytime I try to add my own picture to a raffle, I see the following warning messages displayed both on the main page and on the raffle page.

Code:

Warning: getimagesize() [function.getimagesize]: URL file-access is disabled in the server configuration in [path]/raffles.php on line 186

Warning: getimagesize(http://www.thepokemonexpress.com/images/raffles/accelgor.gif) [function.getimagesize]: failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found in [path]/raffles.php on line 186

Warning: Division by zero in [path]/raffles.php on line 193

I've tried using different file types (jpeg, gif and png) and I've ensured they are under the default image size limit (the image size that I was trying to use was 105 x 130 px and the file size is 258k. The place where the image is located on the site I CHMOD'd hoping that that would fix the issue. Not sure what else to do.

Any help would be appreciated.

Some servers don't allow URL access to files. Try changing http://www.thepokemonexpress.com/images/raffles/accelgor.gif to ./images/raffles/accelgor.gif

You won't be able to see the image in the ACP, but it should show in your raffles.

Just to keep everyone up to date..

I have begun the process of porting this to 3.8.x.

It shouldn't be to long before it's done.
