[OzzModz] Game Thread Starter [Paid] 2.1.8

[Oblivion Knight]

Perhaps an opportunity to re-visit IGDB?

In all seriousness, if you had the time to do this I would be happy to fund a reasonable development cost.

Sorry, but no. Anything that has a pricing structure won't be used.

And a RE-POST of a couple of posts back so it stays visible on the current last page of this add-on...

The games database has changed their API and this add-on will no longer work in it's current state.

I have requested an API key from TGDB and as soon as I receive it, I will begin the process of changing the add-on so it will once again work with TGDB.

 

[Snog]

As of today I now have an API key for the new game database API.

Since today is a holiday, I will begin adapting the system to the new API tomorrow.

There was a minor problem with the TGDb API call in version 2.0.5, if you've already downloaded and upgraded to version 2.0.5, download the add-on again and just upload the files to your server.

If you haven't upgraded yet, download and upgrade as usual.

Is it possible to queue threads for moderator approval before they are auto-posted?

 

[Snog]

Is it possible to queue threads for moderator approval before they are auto-posted?

Yes, that's a XenForo function. Check the "Moderate new threads posted in this forum" in the node setup.

 

[Recep Baltaş]

So, I've installed the add-on.

• When does it start creating threads?
• Can I manually add games?
  • If yes, is it going to be duplicate?
• Does it only fetch new games?

It doesn't create threads automatically.

A user must enter either the TGDb link or a game ID from TDDb when creating a thread.



Be sure you've selected the forum(s) to be used for game threads in the add-on options.

OK, found how to create a thread. Now the question is how can I edit the thread? There is no option to edit... I think I need to check the permissons...

Oh, and I could no find the "co-op" phrase.

Yes, you need to give permission to edit a game.

 

[Recep Baltaş]

There is a phrasing problem:



You combine edit and game phasres but this is not a grammarly accurate phrase in Turkish. It needs to be "Oyunu düzenle" which I can not change. And update on this phares is needed.

I'll change that in the next release. If needed you can temporarily edit the template.

 

[Recep Baltaş]

Not a big problem. I can wait. Another question: can I use the Froala rich text editor when editing a game?

No, the fields are straight text only.

 

[Recep Baltaş]

Coudl not find the Yes/No phrase for Co-Op.

Translated Action, still shows "Action"...
