PHP Code:

    $result_randomgames = $db->query("SELECT gameid, title, miniimage, stdimage, description, highscore, highscorerid, votepoints, votecount, sessioncount, username, catname, " . TABLE_PREFIX . "arcade_games.categoryid FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "arcade_games JOIN  " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user ON " . TABLE_PREFIX . "arcade_games.highscorerid = " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user.userid JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "arcade_categories ON " . TABLE_PREFIX . "arcade_games.categoryid = " . TABLE_PREFIX . "arcade_categories.categoryid ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT 5"); 


the query link the game id whith mini image and standart image and the link is http://your.forum.is/arcade.php?do=play&gameid=239

analize the query ...

tests to install more games ... or reinstall the modification .. ufff aranoid:

A slight variation I made which I think is a tad cleaner. This is a replacement for the article_randomgame5_alt template.

Use alt1 and alt2 as your two colours in the settings in the AdminCP.

Place the $showrandomgame just below the <!-- end what's going on box --> line in FORUMHOME.

Interesting variation. Good work.

If you change this piece of code

	<td class="$vboptions[ranstyle1]" colspan="5"> <a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('forumhome_randomtopic')"><img id="collapseimg_forumhome_randomtopic" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_tcat$vbcollapse[collapseimg_forumhome_randomtopic].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>5 
	  Random Arcade Games (Buy an <a href="http://www.enworld.org/nuttest/estore.php?do=action&itemid=32">Arcade 
	  Pass</a> from the eStore!)</td>

to this another,

	<td class="$vboptions[ranstyle1]" colspan="5"> <a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('forumhome_randomtopic')"><img id="collapseimg_forumhome_randomtopic" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_tcat$vbcollapse[collapseimg_forumhome_randomtopic].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>$vbphrase[arcade_5random]</td>

I can link your personal modification in the first message
:up:

[yayvb]

I noticed since upgrading from the old version that sometimes now my skin is broken because either the game name is too long or the usernames, I'm not sure which is causing the problem. Any way to fix this?

[yayvb]

It looks like if I edit the arcade title names to something shorter, it still breaks sometimes due to longer usernames. For instance I have a user who's name is similar to this: OUTDOORGROWER so even though his name may only be listed once in the random 5 hack, it is long enough to break the skin. If we could make the limit like 10 characters maybe?

[yayvb]

Hi, I keep seeing the skin broken every other refresh it seems, which means my users are too. I hate my users seeing the skin broken, so if there is no way to limit username length, can I just install the old arcade plugin to return it the way it was before? I don't want a broken skin any longer hehe.

[MioTraGusa]

Sorry, forgive me for causing a expect.

Ok, if your like limit to 10 characters alone you have to continue my instructions ...

in the pluggin manager serach the pluggin "Arcade - Show 5 Random Games on the Forum Home" and edit...

Serach the following code:

PHP Code:

$randomhighs0 = round($randomhighs0,0); 


Just Above add:

PHP Code:

$xx = 10;
$x = ($xx - 2);
if ((strlen($randomname0)) > $xx)
{
$randomname0 = substr($randomname0, 0, $x)."..."; 
}
if ((strlen($randomname1)) > $xx)
{
$randomname1 = substr($randomname1, 0, $x)."..."; 
}
if ((strlen($randomname2)) > $xx)
{
$randomname2 = substr($randomname2, 0, $x)."..."; 
}
if ((strlen($randomname3)) > $xx)
{
$randomname3 = substr($randomname3, 0, $x)."..."; 
}
if ((strlen($randomname4)) > $xx)
{
$randomname4 = substr($randomname4, 0, $x)."..."; 
} 


Note: the variable $xx, change the limit of characters ($xx = 10) you can change the value for adapting the aspect in your template.

Sorry again, and test it....

as already I said before... my english is very bad... I expect that be understood.

bye....

Thank you so much. I think you are one of the best hack creaters here because you update your product and you give the best support ever!! Maybe I can have you work on some custom hacks in the future. I just paid someone $800 to do some hacks for me and the guy did everything wrong and keeps getting frustrated that I ask it to be done different. For instance he made it so that when someone pays with paypal they get changed to gold status and get certain features like they can enlarge photos, etc. However if I move someone to gold usergroup it doesn't happen automatically. He did a lot of backgound coding and keeps asking where his bonus is that I said I would send if he did a great job. It's been about 2 months since he started and it's still not complete. Grr Oh well, thank you very much. If you need any favors from an english speaker hehe, just ask!!
