v3arcade Favorites Mod · **Released**: 11-28-2005

As written, the favorites list is generated by the number of times a game is played. This modification changes that behavior so that users can select their own favorite games. It includes the ability to add and remove games from the favorites list.

I am not offering support for this modification. It is provided as-is. It is working fine for me, but I'm not guaranteeing that it will work for you.

I didn't do that because I didn't want to bulk up the query, Michelle. But, I may do it in the future.

I suspected that

You could add it as an option though so that smaller forums can take advantage of it

I remember trying to handle that with a cache in the 3.0.x version, but it was an absolute nightmare.. :speechless:

might be wise to add that this wont work with the alternative layout hack released on here......

amykhar · #27 11-30-2005, 11:22 PM

I guess you just added that

I haven't seen the alternative layout mod.

Does anyone have this working in v3a 1.0.2 with OK's "Who's Online" and the "Leader Board" hacks? I know that's a stretch, but thought I'd try. I seem to get a blank white page, and wonder if it's a conflict with any of the above.

A bit of experimentation on my site shows that performance isn't taking a big hit when I do this. So... I have updated the code to dynamically show if a game is a favorite or not on the category lists.

If you have already installed the mod, here is how to upgrade:

1. Find:

Code:

	else if ($vbulletin->GPC['categoryid']==2)
	{
		// Favorites
    $gamecountquery = ("SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX."eaarcade_favorites 
    WHERE userid=" . $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] . "
    GROUP BY userid ASC");
		$gamecount = $db->num_rows($gamecountquery);

		$perpage =  $vbulletin->input->clean_gpc('r', 'perpage', TYPE_UINT);

		// set defaults
		sanitize_pageresults($gamecount, $pagenumber, $perpage, 100, $vbulletin->options['gamesperpage']);

		$start = (int)($perpage*$pagenumber)-$perpage;

		$pagenav = construct_page_nav($pagenumber, $perpage, $gamecount, 'arcade.php?' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'], ""
		. (!empty($vbulletin->GPC['categoryid']) ? "&amp;categoryid=" . $vbulletin->GPC['categoryid'] : "")
		. (!empty($vbulletin->GPC['perpage']) ? "&amp;pp=$perpage" : "")
		);

			$games = $db->query_read("SELECT eaarcade_favorites.gameid, arcade_games.*, user.username, arcade_categories.catname FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "eaarcade_favorites AS eaarcade_favorites
	  	LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "arcade_games AS arcade_games ON (arcade_games.gameid=eaarcade_favorites.gameid)
	  	LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user AS user ON (arcade_games.highscorerid=user.userid)
	  	LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "arcade_categories AS arcade_categories ON (arcade_games.categoryid=arcade_categories.categoryid)
	  	WHERE eaarcade_favorites.userid=" . $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] . " AND arcade_games.title IS NOT NULL 
		" . iif($bitfieldcheck, "AND $bitfieldcheck") . "
	  	ORDER BY eaarcade_favorites.gameid DESC
	  	LIMIT $start,".$vbulletin->options['gamesperpage']);
	} else	{

Replace with:
-----------

Code:

	else if ($vbulletin->GPC['categoryid']==2)
	{
		// Favorites
    $gamecountquery = ("SELECT * FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX."eaarcade_favorites 
    WHERE userid=" . $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] . "
    GROUP BY userid ASC");
		$gamecount = $db->num_rows($gamecountquery);

		$perpage =  $vbulletin->input->clean_gpc('r', 'perpage', TYPE_UINT);

		// set defaults
		sanitize_pageresults($gamecount, $pagenumber, $perpage, 100, $vbulletin->options['gamesperpage']);

		$start = (int)($perpage*$pagenumber)-$perpage;

		$pagenav = construct_page_nav($pagenumber, $perpage, $gamecount, 'arcade.php?' . $vbulletin->session->vars['sessionurl'], ""
		. (!empty($vbulletin->GPC['categoryid']) ? "&amp;categoryid=" . $vbulletin->GPC['categoryid'] : "")
		. (!empty($vbulletin->GPC['perpage']) ? "&amp;pp=$perpage" : "")
		);

			$games = $db->query_read("SELECT eaarcade_favorites.*, arcade_games.*, user.username, arcade_categories.catname FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "eaarcade_favorites AS eaarcade_favorites
	  	LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "arcade_games AS arcade_games ON (arcade_games.gameid=eaarcade_favorites.gameid)
	  	LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user AS user ON (arcade_games.highscorerid=user.userid)
	  	LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "arcade_categories AS arcade_categories ON (arcade_games.categoryid=arcade_categories.categoryid)
	  	WHERE eaarcade_favorites.userid=" . $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] . " AND arcade_games.title IS NOT NULL 
		" . iif($bitfieldcheck, "AND $bitfieldcheck") . "
	  	ORDER BY eaarcade_favorites.gameid DESC
	  	LIMIT $start,".$vbulletin->options['gamesperpage']);
	} else	{

-----------

Find:

Code:

	$games = $db->query_read("SELECT arcade_games.*, user.username, arcade_categories.catname FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "arcade_games AS arcade_games
		LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user AS user ON (arcade_games.highscorerid=user.userid)
		LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "arcade_categories AS arcade_categories ON (arcade_games.categoryid=arcade_categories.categoryid)
		" . iif($vbulletin->GPC['categoryid']!=-1, "WHERE arcade_games.categoryid=" . $vbulletin->GPC['categoryid'] . iif($bitfieldcheck, " AND $bitfieldcheck"), iif($bitfieldcheck, "WHERE $bitfieldcheck")) . "
		ORDER BY title ASC
		LIMIT $start, " . $vbulletin->options['gamesperpage']);

Replace with:

Code:

		$games = $db->query_read("SELECT arcade_games.*, favorites.favid AS favid, user.username, arcade_categories.catname FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "arcade_games AS arcade_games
		LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user AS user ON (arcade_games.highscorerid=user.userid)
		LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "eaarcade_favorites AS favorites ON (favorites.gameid=arcade_games.gameid)
		LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "arcade_categories AS arcade_categories ON (arcade_games.categoryid=arcade_categories.categoryid)
		" . iif($vbulletin->GPC['categoryid']!=-1, "WHERE favorites.userid=". $vbulletin->userinfo[userid]." AND arcade_games.categoryid=" . $vbulletin->GPC['categoryid'] . iif($bitfieldcheck, " AND $bitfieldcheck"), iif($bitfieldcheck, "WHERE $bitfieldcheck")) . "
		ORDER BY title ASC
		LIMIT $start, " . $vbulletin->options['gamesperpage']);

In your arcade_game_bit template, Replace the code block you added previously with:

Code:

<br /> <if condition="$game[favid]"><a href="arcade.php?do=delfav&gameid=$game[gameid]">$vbphrase[arcadedelfav]</a><else /><a href="arcade.php?do=addfav&gameid=$game[gameid]">$vbphrase[arcadeaddfav]</a></if>

(Note: only the conditional changed in the template.)

Nope, this works fine with the Who's Online and Leader Board addons..

Once I've updated the Alternative Layout mod, I'll provide some instructions for adding this mod to it..
