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!

Huge bug..

hangman.php?letters=ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ&n=3 3

Change the number 33 to another.. and always win ;-(


Or.. go back and try again with another letter ;-(

This two bugs have problems with de STORE HACK.. because the users steal points..

Another thing..

The store hack add on.. is wrong..

Missin' 1 line...

The original says (if lose)

PHP Code:

$user = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT userid,username,storep,usertitle FROM user WHERE userid=$bbuserinfo[userid]");
$points=$user[storep];
    $points = $points - 50; \\Points 


Add the last line.. to do the query

PHP Code:

$user = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT userid,username,storep,usertitle FROM user WHERE userid=$bbuserinfo[userid]");
$points=$user[storep];
    $points = $points - 50;
    $DB_site->query("UPDATE user SET storep='$points' WHERE userid=$bbuserinfo[userid]"); 


If not.. the user never lose points.


we have not been able to fix this bug that makes all of our users win

It's not a bug, but the way the hack is written. If your members want to cheat like that, go ahead!

Zajako wrote the Store Hack integration. I don't use the Store Hack so I cannot comment or fix this "bug". This hack was never meant to be integrated with the Store Hack.

[lalo landa]

don't get mad erwin.

I write the solution of the store hack problem.

It's not a bug, but the way the hack is written. If your members want to cheat like that, go ahead!

Mmmmmm ok.. what ever.

[Erwin]

Let me repeat - I DID NOT WRITE THE STORE HACK VERSION! My hack was never designed to work with the Store Hack. zajako kindly did one.

If you have a BETTER store hack integration file, please post here or PM it to me, and I will post it in this thread, with all credits given to you.
