Hi all,

We have moved the time the games are posted 2 hours ahead to 5am

Best of luck,
Ilya

sorted out the prob thanks

We're thinking of adding a feature that will allow you to pick which categories of games you would like to receive (puzzle, strategy, etc...)

Would be great to get some feedback about this or ideas for other features from current and potential users.

Cheers,

Ilya

if you do that, then it would be nice for admins to be able to have separate forum categories for each game type. So someone could have a "puzzle forum" and a separate "strategy forum" and the the daily game gets posted automatically into the specified forum. This would make it easier for the forum's users to find games they like a bit quicker.

just an idea

Thanks for your suggestion!
I think this would make things a bit complicated to manage (creating several forums & configuring them), and then having to deal with uncategorized games ("Other")

Do you think enabling posting the category as part of the title is valuable?
We could also let the admin customize the title's template with the category (similar to what we have today with the game's name and date)

This would create titles like "Daily game 29 Jul - Bloons [Arcade]" or
"A new Arcade game - Bloons" etc.
How does that sound?

Hi all,
Just added the option to include the game's category (puzzle, sports etc) in the title

Cheers!

Aha! Found the mod conflicting with this mod! :up:

It was the Global Tag Cloud mod here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=177429

It was also causing a conflict with my automatic thread tagger mod. So, I got two fixes in one ;)

My members are back and enjoying the daily games! :D

I must have done something wrong...my test didn't work... I got this error message:

When I registered, it asked for the link to the forum which I assumed meant to the forum I wanted the games posted in, so I gave it that link which is:
http://www.fresh-hope.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=86

Other then that, I've uploaded everything to where it belongs and configured everything so I'm not sure what could have gone wrong...

Oh, I didn't put in an Adsense Code as I don't have one yet and am not sure I want ads on the board...that didn't appear to be mandatory though... I really don't know anything about adsense so I'm a little concerned about signing up for it... If you have to have it for this, will they only put ads in that one forum or will they put them everywhere?

Can someone help me? Thanks

Never mind, thanks it's working now!!!

Hi, I love the idea of this mod as my forums are primarily about gaming. However, when I try the test link I receive the following error messages:

I havent got a new game since the 20th, is anyone else having an issue?

I install the pluggin into my site: http://www.dienanh.net/forums/ but when I test, it errors:
======
An error occured : Sending to http://www.dienanh.net/forums/ (ID: 2692)(Version 2) ->

I tried the link: http://dienanh.net/forums/add_daily_game.php
and get this message although I update the shared key:
Request accepted. Wrong secret key

scottct1: check your Moderated Thread
squall leonhart: the game will be automatically posted around 4pm-5pm at GMT+7.
You can't test that way.

Installed... the test game worked fine so I'm hoping for the best. :up:

Does everyone signed up for this system get the same game each day or is it random?

Any way to set a "Post Icon" for when the game is posted?

Hi, the games are selected daily and you will never get the same game

Where is that "Post Icon" you would like to change?

When you start a new thread you get to select a post icon, something like: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2011/07/3.gif https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2010/11/2.gif or https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2011/01/19.gif

Just curious if there is a way to pick a post icon for the daily game post?

Do the games all have associated thumbnail images, by any chance? The reason I ask, is because I have a few features on the site that pull images from a thread. If they do have associated images, I was wondering if you could included them in a hidden DIV inside the post. They would not be visible when viewing the post, but scripts that look for images would include them when generating thumbnails.

I do the same for RSS feeds from YouTube. I put the extra info YouTube supplies, which includes a thumbnail from the video. When it posts, you don't see the extra info, but things like my articles forum or my Wibiya Bar's recent posts display the image as a thumb.

Neat idea. Making a note to check it out later.

Been using it about 3 months now, works great IMO.

My games are a little oversized in my threads. How To small them so they can fit nice?

Is there any way for the board to track scores? This would add competition between users, which usually means the users stay longer in the forum and access it oftener.

DEGE

It's been 3 days since I installed the mode and I haven't received any games yet. How can I test if the installation is correct?

I think this stopped working.... my last game posted on 26th june 2011... nothing changed by me... has been posting it for long time... but it stopped
Edit : i found the reason...

Nope, still posting at my forums, must be something you've blocked or turned off!

Still working for me too.

tried much.
NOt at all working for me.

I had this plugin disabled for a few months, but i just re-enabled it and the game it posted shows HTML source instead of the game. Why's it doing this?

Make sure you haven't manually disabled any of the mod's plugins from Plugin Manager.

Oops, that was it.

Thanks :X

For some reason I'm not getting any new games and can't figure out why...I did move the forum from one section of the board to another, but it's still the same forum so I wouldn't think that would change anything... I've checked all the settings and everything appears to be right.. The only thing I can think of other then that is that I did change my email address awhile ago; do I need to update that somewhere? Just grasping at straws as I don't know what could be causing this...

Can anyone help me?

All I can think of is make sure the poster userid has permission to post in the new forum.

It's not a new forum, I just changed which section of the board I had the forum in. For example, if it was this board, it might have been moved from the styles section to the mods section...

Either way, can you try posting as the user you have it set to to make sure it works?

oh yeah, I can post in it, no problem. (I'm the user lol)

Then I'm stumped... maybe try signing up for a new secret, not that it should matter...

Yeah, that's what I was thinking too...grasping at straws, but who knows, it might work! Thanks for trying to help though!

I get this error when I use the test link they sent me:

Warning: simplexml_load_string() [function.simplexml-load-string]: <br/>Z/<, X/> - toggle inventory.</instructions><date></date><category_name>Act in [path]/add_daily_game.php on line 81

Set mine up. How long for first game to show?
