OA Mod: Random Games On Front Page

admin · 06-10-2006, 12:14 AM

1 Simply Edit and Your Site could have Random Arcade Games on the Index Page

Open up includes/functions.php

Find (Should be around line 103):

Quote:

// Get files in this category
$result2 = mysql_query("SELECT title, icon, iconlocation, fileid, description, timesplayed FROM files WHERE category = '$categoryid' && status = '1' ORDER BY fileid DESC LIMIT $maxindexpage");

Replace With:

Quote:

// Get files in this category
$result2 = mysql_query("SELECT title, icon, iconlocation, fileid, description, timesplayed FROM files WHERE category = '$categoryid' && status = '1' ORDER BY RAND() DESC LIMIT $maxindexpage");

By doing this, You'll have Random Games shown in each Category in your arcade..

excellent hack! Do you know how to create a "Featured Game" box in the column? I know GSS has a hack for it but id like to see ON have it as well

looks good, I did notice it stretched the column ot a bit, is it possible to maker the featured games description text fold over into the next line sooner so it wont stretch the column too much?

Actually, thats just the layout...

I can make the text under it, just 1 edit to the functions.php file

, thanks for the mod. This makes me want to use OnArcade now. PHPAS has some good mods as well though. The only reason I can't use OnArcade is because it doesn't accept paypal
