Tutorial On Adding Games.

I see a lot of folks asking about extra games and such ,here is my guide on how to add many games into a dedicated "game" forum

Firstly this all hinges on the fact that admins on SMF forums have the ability to use html tags in their posts on thier own forums. ( some of you may already know this ,many won't )

Code:

Code:

[html] html code here [/html]

Now that we know that ...

Step 1

create a forum for your games , goto your new forum and begin new topic.

Step 2
Open this link in a new page or tab http://www.miniclip.com/games/en/webmaster-games.php
You will know see a big list of games that you can get code for Smiley
Select a game and press the "get code" button , copy that code to your clip board.

Step 3

Return to your forum new topic and type in the html tags like this ...

Code:

Code:

[html]

[/html]

Or make it centered like this
Code:

Code:

[center][html]

[/html][/center]

Now paste the game code from your clip board between those tags and preview

You may see the "left empty " error , just enter a period after the last tag.

What you have have now looks like this

Code:

Code:

[center][html]
<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0" width="640" height="480">
<param name="menu" value="false" />
<param name="movie" value="http://www.miniclip.com/swfcontent/freegames/loader.swf?url=iceslide.swf&name=Ice Slide&icon=%2Fimages%2Ficons%2Ficeslidemedicon.jpg&w=640&h=480" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<embed src="http://www.miniclip.com/swfcontent/freegames/loader.swf?url=iceslide.swf&name=Ice Slide&icon=%2Fimages%2Ficons%2Ficeslidemedicon.jpg&w=640&h=480" menu="false" quality="high" width="640" height="480" name="miniclipGame" align="middle" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
</object>

[/html][/center]

Now if all went well preview again and then post .

The game will now be embedded and playable in your post.

I would show it here but i don't have admin permissions for this support forum .
Again this will only work on your own forum that you are admin on !

Here are a few examples on my forum http://shutterbugstroll.smfforfree4.com/index.php/board,24.0.html

P.S.
These games could also be used in an html block on your portal or elsewhere via your webpage editor
