Offical GF website chat
#1
Posted 01 August 2009 - 04:48 PM
welcome all GF members to the GF website chat thread. This is where you can talk about our growing website and to talk about what to add to it. This is were I will announce updates on the website as well.
For updates, I have added a count down clock to the bottom of the site. Check it out to see what game it is counting down to.
Here are the things I need feedback on.
Game of the Month- which game is favorite by many GF members? The post popular one will be placed into the GotM area with a nice looking image.
Video picks- What videos should be put on display from youtube?
I am looking for ideas on what to replace the E3 area with something else and if you feel more should be added to the website please let us know and we will see what we can do.
Please See the Joomla extensions to help with that. click here for extensions page

You have to be a member of their website in order to download their modules. I think they do it, so fewer people leach files.

Also you have to enable legacy mode in Joomla, so it will work in 1.5.

What you are talking about sounds like a gaming blog like Kotaku, joystiq, etc?
Wordpress is better then Joomla if you want to make a blog for blogging about stuff.
It is easy to install, and automaticlly promotes new articles to the front page.

I joined up, got the email, clicked on the confirm hyper link and took me to a page that I don't have permission to view and told me to sign in but the sign in says I need to click the hyperlink in my email. so what am I doing wrong?

You have to enable legacy mode in Joomla for this extension to work.
Go to Extensions > plugin mangager > System Legacy and enable it.
More info on turning on legacy mode can be found here : http://www.mydigitallife.info/2007/11/29/h...#comment-594481

The link to PU arcade for your site is http://gamingforce.us/index.php/component/puarcade/?fid=9998
Did you make a menu link for it?
You have to make a menu item for the Arcade for your website menu. You go to the menu you want to put the link in, and you click the new button then click on the PU arcade button or from the link I posted above.
You might want to switch your template for PU arcade since it seems to be repeating the Assasin creed banner.

Alright, I think I got it fixed. Now my problem is the scores won't submit (I am logged in) and I can't seem to see anything wrong in the admin panel or at least a option to adjust the scoring for the games.
Also, where can I go to get more games?

Try uninstalling or reinstalling Puarcade, or changing the settings for PU arcade back to what they where when you first install them.
You can download more games here : http://www.pragmaticutopia.com/component/k...catid=7&id=8973
You have to unzip the big folder and upload the tiny tar folders to your site individually.
