Thanks.

Version 2.4 is great.
But I have 2 questions:
1. Can I updated from 2.3.2 to 2.4 by adding or replacing the necessary code for functions, similar to the update from 2.2 to 2.3?
I Do not see the manual updating from 2.3.2 to 2.4.
2. Is it possible to make php templates again, because for me are easier to edit?
New templates are very awkward to me, I want the old php templates.

Cheers,

Hello Hans,

As expected you've done a great job, in general and especially with the category browsing by title, played, rating and time added.

I'd wish to implement only that on my site http://www.watergamesonline.com . If you could guide me through I would be very grateful.

Thanks

1. Sorry, this is not possible. I will be releasing template upgrading instructions like this, but making these replacements in rest of the code would be just too big work.

2. Yes, this is possible. Templates upgraded from 2.3 will be like this (when I release upgrading instructions). If you want to use PHP template then you basically have to delete templates/onarcade/file.php and instead place file.template.php that contains 2.3 style PHP template code in that directory.

For this in browse.php after

PHP Code:

$page = get_page(); // page number 


add

PHP Code:

// games order
$order = isset($_POST['order']) ? $_POST['order'] :
            (isset($_GET['order']) ? $_GET['order'] : '');
switch ($order) {
    case 'rating':
        $order_sql = 'rating DESC, totalvotes DESC';
        break;
    case 'played':
        $order_sql = 'timesplayed DESC, fileid DESC';
        break;
    case 'added':
        $order_sql = 'dateadded DESC';
        break;
    default:
        $order_sql = 'title ASC';
        $order = 'title';
} 


then change

PHP Code:

ORDER BY title 


to

PHP Code:

". $order_sql ." 


then in that file all categoryurl() function and as last attribute add $order, e.g.
change

PHP Code:

categoryurl($txt['category_id'], $txt['category_title'], 1) 


to

PHP Code:

categoryurl($txt['category_id'], $txt['category_title'], 1, $order) 


(and do this for all, otherwise pagination won't work)
then in .htaccess change

Code:

RewriteRule ^category/([0-9]+)/.+/([0-9]+)\.html$ browse.php?c=$1&p=$2 [L]

to

Code:

RewriteRule ^category/([0-9]+)/(.+?)/([a-zA-Z]+)?/?([0-9]+)\.html$ browse.php?c=$1&p=$4&name=$2&order=$3 [L]

then in includes/functions.php change

PHP Code:

function categoryurl($category_id, $category_title, $page = 1) {
    global $settings;

    if ($settings['sefriendly'] == 1) {
        $replace = array(' ', '\'', ':', '(', ')', '&', 'ä', 'ö', 'ü', 'õ');
        $replacement = array('_', '', '-', '8', '9', 'and', 'a', 'o', 'y', 'o');
        $category_title = str_replace($replace, $replacement, $category_title);

        return $settings['siteurl'] .'/'. $settings['categoryurl'] .'/'. $category_id .'/'. $category_title .'/'. $page .'.html';
    } else {
        return $settings['siteurl'] .'/browse.php?c='. $category_id .'&p='. $page;
    }
} 


to

PHP Code:

function categoryurl($category_id, $category_title, $page = 1, $order = 'title') {
    global $settings;

    if ($settings['sefriendly'] == 1) {
        $replace = array(' ', '\'', ':', '(', ')', '&', 'ä', 'ö', 'ü', 'õ');
        $replacement = array('_', '', '-', '8', '9', 'and', 'a', 'o', 'y', 'o');
        $category_title = str_replace($replace, $replacement, $category_title);

        if ($order !== 'title') {
            return $settings['siteurl'] .'/'. $settings['categoryurl'] .'/'. $category_id .'/'. $category_title .'/'. $order .'/'. $page .'.html';
        }
        return $settings['siteurl'] .'/'. $settings['categoryurl'] .'/'. $category_id .'/'. $category_title .'/'. $page .'.html';
    } else {
        return $settings['siteurl'] .'/browse.php?c='. $category_id .'&p='. $page .'&order='. $order;
    }
} 


then place ordering selection on your template:

Code:

<form name="order" action="" method="post">
          <p>
            Order by
            <select name="order">
              <option value="title">Title</option>
              <option value="rating" {($order == 'rating' ? 'selected="selected"':'')}>Rating</option>
              <option value="played" {($order == 'played' ? 'selected="selected"':'')}>Played</option>
              <option value="added" {($order == 'added' ? 'selected="selected"':'')}>Time added</option>
            </select>
            <input type="submit" value="{$lang['go']}" />
          </p>
        </form>

That should be it.
