Add-On Releases - Daily Game - Free games for your forum

Daily Game posts a new flash game to your vBulletin once per day in a new thread. Daily Game will help your forum by:

• Starting up conversations on slow days
• Increasing retention since users are playing on your forum
• Help you get links and improve SEO (flash games get a lot of links!)
• Make you money! Use your own ad code to display an ad while the flash game is loading. These pre-roll ads get very high eCPM!

Install time: 5 minutes
Installation difficulty: Easy
Demo: http://www.playedonline.com/forum/showthread.php?t=40

Updated to version 2.1 : simple_xml support is no longer required, enabled bbcodes on the game thread

Installation instructions

1. Upload add_daily_game.php to the vBulletin root directory
2. Import the product XML file (Plugins & Products -> Manage Products - > [Add/Import Product])
3. Configure the Daily Game settings under vBulletin Options -> vBulletin Options -> Daily Game:
   • Set ?Enabled? to Yes
   • Visit www.playedonline.com/register_vbulletin to register (input your forum's url and your email) and get a shared key for authentication
   • Configure which userid will post the daily games (input 0 for guest)
   • Choose a forum for Daily Game
   • Customise the title (useful for non-English forums) or leave blank for default
   • Enable or disable description and instructions
   • Paste ad code (e.g. AdSense) to show a pre-roll ad before the game starts (optional, leave empty to show no ads)
   • Click the Test link you got in the registration e-mail to post a test daily game (you can delete the test post after you verify that it works)
   • You're done! A daily game will be posted on your forum every day at 3am EST.

Can you send me an example please?

if its a normal member your using to post the games try using a different one admin or mod name should bypass moderation that way. or exempt that member from spam checks etc.

just 4 info
[D A T E] is hardcoded in the add_daily_game.php
would not be shown in non-english forums like it should be ...
i changed it to:

        $replace = array($sXML["game_name"], date('d.m.Y'));

EDIT:
ufff. i forget this: thank you for this addon!
