Is there anyway to see the most recently added games to the gamelist? I as yet have been unable to find a good way to do it, and it is bringing on the heartbreak. I am going straight on for you, to ask that we somehow get a means to view recently added games, so that we don't have to obsessively stalk over the list for new games.

I may be dumb, of course, and we already have this. If so, how do I dos it?

I had this same problem... yesterday. It's a must-have feature and we haven't got it.

If we don't got that, then maybe when everyone has a new game, the should post it on the message board.

It seems we don't have the search by user option either, among other things.

Hell, a simple "View This Users' Games" Button would be terrific. Pardon me for being a cynic, but I fail to see how this makes us more secure. I'm thinking this is still just a cover up for new features.

As for user games:

http://castleparadox.com/ohr/search-usersgames.php?u=

Stick in the user id after the = sign. For instance, if you want all games by Giz (click his profile link, you'll see that same u=# in the URL), you'd use:

http://castleparadox.com/ohr/search-usersgames.php?u=78

Because Giz's user id is 78.

And, as I am sure someone is going to complain about how difficult it is to use it right now, it's only like that because IM hasn't prepared new mods for this copy of phpBB yet (I think)

Is there a way to make an option on the gamelist that sorts the games by the date they were added instead of alphabetically?

That was suggested in the "the top 25 list makes no damn sense" thread... I think...

That was always built in. People just never looked in the search page. However, I have to remake HTML for the search page now that we moved to a different version of phpBB.

I've said this many many times, the old CP was heavily interwoven into phpBB. I never upgraded the board because of all the hassles it would cause to get everything back to how it was. Even something as simple as installing an extra theme for phpBB required me to make changes to about 30 files. I started doing it with the Cobalt theme on the old CP and decided I didn't want to go through that ever again.

I'll stick the search page back up later today.

I dunno. I'm a part of the VGMP3.com forums that run on SMF, and it seems that while SMF looks spiffier, it's kinda more clotted than PHP.
