Installation :
---------------

Simple.

1) Upload vbhangman_install.php to your admin directory, and run it, and then follow the instructions (you can run it again to uninstall this hack). This will add settings to your database automatically. Delete this file after you have done this.

2) Upload hangman.php to your forum directory.

3) Make a hangman subdirectory in your images directory. Upload the image files to the images/hangman subdirectory.

4) Make a new template "hangman" and add the contents of the hangman.txt file into this.

5) Go to your Admin CP, then to the vBulletin Options section, and set whether you want guests to have access to Hangman, how many attempts you allow (default is 6, any higher and you will need to add your own custom hangman images), and then add your words. Separate each word or words or each sentence with a comma. For example...

hello,yahoo!,3 blind mice,12 apostles,vbulletin,good morning,good afternoon,this is cool

(numbers and special characters are fine!)

Then, just go to http://www.yourforums.com/forums/hangman.php to play Hangman!

Enjoy!

OK, here is my first wordpack, it's theme is computer game names, feel free to use it, just download it, copy and paste the words into the words list in your vB options page, and enjoy

Wow cool

Just change the data field type to "blob" and it will be unlimited. But you're right, it will take many words to fill up. It's a great idea to share a word list - attach it in this thread as a text file, and I will link to it in my first post.

[Erwin]

Ninth Dimension - I have linked to your text file and given you credit in my first post.

Other Hangman users - if you have your own wordlist you want to share, just post in this thread, and I will link to it too.

[Ninth Dimension]

cool, thank you, i'll add some more words to it at some point soon, and then maybe make some more (i'm feeling helpful today)

I have an idea.

Could you make the integration hack so that the least number of tries they make, the more points they get?

It might be better than deducting 50 points of them =)

Because you haven't added words to your word list in your Admin CP, under the vBulletin Options, then vB Hangman section.
