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.

This number needs to be the user id of someone who is registered on your forum (you, an admin or a special dedicated account - "daily_games" for example)
Try using 1 - the ADMIN will be the author of the daily game posts.

46222 is the dedicated user's ID on our forum, I guess it can be misleading...

Love this. Its perfect.

I just add bidvertiser ads to my forums on the top and the bottom instead of the game. What happens if I add non-adsense code? Like for example, bidvertiser or some other ad company?

What do you mean by "instead of the game"?

We haven't tried bidvertiser on our forum, but if it's a standard ad code it will work. Please post your experience with it on this thread.
