How do I increase the list of players on arcade.php?

I cannot figure out how to increase the number of newest champions to 12 from the default list of 5 or increasing the number of latest arcade scores to 12 from 1 on the arcade.php.

I am running the latest version of ibProArcade and vb 3.7.0 Gold.

This is driving me nuts and any help in accomplishing this is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

in arcade.php do this :

find line ~ 2177

PHP Code:

$DB->query("SELECT c.*, g.gcat, cat.password FROM ibf_games_champs AS c, ibf_games_list AS g, ibf_games_cats AS cat WHERE c.champ_gid=g.gid AND g.gcat=cat.c_id AND g.active=1 AND trim(password)='' ORDER BY champ_date DESC LIMIT 0,5"); 


replace with

PHP Code:

$total_de_champs = 12;
$DB->query("SELECT c.*, g.gcat, cat.password FROM ibf_games_champs AS c, ibf_games_list AS g, ibf_games_cats AS cat WHERE c.champ_gid=g.gid AND g.gcat=cat.c_id AND g.active=1 AND trim(password)='' ORDER BY champ_date DESC LIMIT 0,$total_de_champs"); 


and then, if you want to change it later, just change the $total_de_champs variable with the amount of champs you want.

as for the latest scores...well, that requires a major modification...i'm looking how to make it work


---------------------------------------------------------------------

okey so here is how you edit the latests scores ! !

first find all this in between lines ~2152 and ~2173

PHP Code:

        //latest score and champions
       //Added g.decpoints after g.title
                $DB->query("SELECT s.*, g.gtitle, g.decpoints, c.password FROM ibf_games_scores AS s, ibf_games_list AS g, ibf_games_cats AS c WHERE s.gid=g.gid AND g.gcat=c.c_id AND g.active=1 AND trim(password)='' ORDER BY datescored DESC LIMIT 0,5");
                $newest_score = $DB->fetch_row();

        //$newest_score['score'] = $this->arcade->t3h_format($newest_score['score']);
                // Replaced
                $newest_score['score'] = $this->arcade->do_arcade_format($newest_score['score'],$newest_score['decpoints']);

                if ($this->arcade->settings['use_announce'])
        {
            $announce = $this->arcade->settings['announcement_parsed'];
                    $tourneyinfo['announcement'] = $this->html->generalbox($ibforums->lang['arcade_announcements'], $announce);
        }
                else
                $tourneyinfo['announcement'] = "";


        $latestinfo = $ibforums->lang['newest_score'];
        $latestinfo = preg_replace("/<% NAME %>/i" , $newest_score['name'] , $latestinfo);
        $latestinfo = preg_replace("/<% SCORE %>/i" , $newest_score['score'] , $latestinfo);
        $latestinfo = preg_replace("/<% GAME %>/i" , $newest_score['gtitle'] , $latestinfo); 


and now REPLACE ALL THAT with :

PHP Code:

        //latest score and champions
        //Added g.decpoints after g.title
                   $latestinfo = "<table width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\">";
                   $total_de_scores = 5;
                $DB->query("SELECT s.*, g.gtitle, g.decpoints, c.password FROM ibf_games_scores AS s, ibf_games_list AS g, ibf_games_cats AS c WHERE s.gid=g.gid AND g.gcat=c.c_id AND g.active=1 AND trim(password)='' ORDER BY datescored DESC LIMIT 0,$total_de_scores");
                // modification to show more than 1 latest scores made by HarZens
                while($newest_score = $DB->fetch_row())
                {
                    $juego = "<tr><td align=\"left\" width=\"70%\" class=\"alt1\">";
                    $juego .= $ibforums->lang['newest_score'];
                    $newest_score['score'] = $this->arcade->do_arcade_format($newest_score['score'],$newest_score['decpoints']);
                    $juego = preg_replace("/<% NAME %>/i" , $newest_score['name'] , $juego);
                    $juego = preg_replace("/<% SCORE %>/i" , $newest_score['score'] , $juego);
                    $juego = preg_replace("/<% GAME %>/i" , $newest_score['gtitle'] , $juego);
                    $juego .= "</td><td align=\"right\" width=\"30%\" class=\"alt1\"><a href=\"arcade.php?&act=Arcade&do=play&gameid=".$newest_score['gid']."\">Play ".$newest_score['gtitle']."</a></td></tr>";
                    $latestinfo .= $juego;                    
                }
                $latestinfo .= "</table>";

                if ($this->arcade->settings['use_announce'])
                {
                    $announce = $this->arcade->settings['announcement_parsed'];
                            $tourneyinfo['announcement'] = $this->html->generalbox($ibforums->lang['arcade_announcements'], $announce);
                }
                else
                $tourneyinfo['announcement'] = ""; 


change the value of $total_de_scores to suit your needs

now open skin_v3Arcade.php
find :

								<table cellpadding="2" cellspacing="1" border="0" width="100%">
										<tr>
                                        									<td align="left">
												{$latestinfo}<br />
                                            									</td>
											<td align="right">
												{$clicktoplay['click']}
											</td>
										</tr>
								</table>

replace with :

								<table cellpadding="2" cellspacing="1" border="0" width="100%">
										<tr>
											<td>{$latestinfo}</td>
										</tr>
								</table>

repeat this step with skin_Arcade.php

and you should be done by now

by the way, this is hardcoded inside arcade.php, and it shouldn't be that way, but i don't know how templating in ibproarcade works, so this is the fastest way..

Thanks for this post

Hi and thank you for the instructions. I am getting a db error - not being a coder for sure - but the error is that it cannot find the db table. Is this because the table prefix is missing? If so, where do I correct the code to include the table prefix.

Thanks in advance.

[tintructo]

change this line

PHP Code:

$DB->query("SELECT s.*, g.gtitle, g.decpoints, c.password FROM games_scores AS s, games_list AS g, games_cats AS c WHERE s.gid=g.gid AND g.gcat=c.c_id AND g.active=1 AND trim(password)='' ORDER BY datescored DESC LIMIT 0,$total_de_scores"); 


to this one

PHP Code:

$DB->query("SELECT s.*, g.gtitle, g.decpoints, c.password FROM ibf_games_scores AS s, ibf_games_list AS g, ibf_games_cats AS c WHERE s.gid=g.gid AND g.gcat=c.c_id AND g.active=1 AND trim(password)='' ORDER BY datescored DESC LIMIT 0,$total_de_scores"); 


i trully have on idea how this actually works really, because i don't have those prefixes for the tables, but they still work (all the ibproarcade queries are like that).

[YLP1]

Thank you much.... this fixed it!

Darn....just when I was given the modification there is an update and now the lines are different.

Can I bother you again to tell me how to modify the updated file?

Thanks in advance.
