Deleting games
« on: October 02, 2011, 07:57:55 PM »
Well im deleting alot of games off my site that i dont want. and i was wondering if when i delete the game off the site does it also delete the file from my host or do i have to do that myself?

From what I see it does not.
I should put that in the next version though.

If you want, gimme like mmm half hour at most and I will post the code you need to edit and add.

This code is not tested, but it looks perfectly fine to me.

ftp or ssh your way into /pages/admin/
and edit the file: managegames.php

Find the function: delete
and replace it with this:

Code: [Select]
function delete(){
global $directorypath, $gamesfolder;
$ID = abs((int) $_GET['ID']);

$query = mysql_query("SELECT `file` FROM `dd_games` WHERE `ID`='$ID'");
$row = mysql_fetch_array($query);

if($row['type'] == "1"){
unlink("$directorypath/$gamesfolder/".$row['file']."");
}

mysql_query(sprintf('DELETE FROM dd_games WHERE ID=\'%u\'', $ID));
echo '<div class=\'msg\'>Game Deleted.
<br />
<A href="#" onclick="history.go(-1)">Back</a></div>';
}

just gotta make sure you have your permissions set to allow this to work. Don't anyone yell at me :P lol
I say set everything to 777
others don't like to.. they say its a security issue and blah blah blah  ::)
If you're afraid of all that just set the games directory to 777 and leave everything else to your settings, thats fine.

EDIT: Before editing anything, back it up.
EDIT2: Fixed a mistake in the code

Nice one Adam - Can't wait for the Beta2 to see what else you have created or added.

Sorry Adam - I can't get your script to work? :(

Try this by replacing the whole of the delete function.

Code: [Select]
function delete(){
global $domain, $db, $gamesfolder, $thumbsfolder, $template, $directorypath;

$ID = abs((int) $_GET['ID']);
$query = mysql_query("select * FROM `dd_games` WHERE `ID`='$ID'");
$row = mysql_fetch_array($query);

if($row["type"] == "1")
{

$file = $row["file"];

$myFile = "$domain/$directorypath/$gamesfolder/$file";
unlink($myFile);
}

if($row["type"] == "1")
{

$thumb = $row["thumb"];

$myThumb = "$domain/$directorypath/$thumbsfolder/$thumb";
unlink($myThumb);
}

mysql_query(sprintf('DELETE FROM dd_games WHERE ID=\'%u\'', $ID));

echo '
<div class=\'msg\'>Game Deleted <a href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="history.go(-1)"> Go Back</a></div>

';
}



Edit: Shortened up the script and renamed a VAR.
Edit 2: Replaced ./../ with $domain because of seo problems.

Oh yeah I forgot about the thumbnail.
Dunno why you used: ./../ ?
Your directory path var is all you need I would think.
What did you set for the directory path?

Internet is being shut off I guess for me. Not enough money to pay for it so I will be gone again. Hopefully not for too long.

I used ./../ because the process is being called from two levels down and one has to get back to the root. Real path -> http:// ($domain) is not allowed.

My dir path is "/arcade" because I re-wrote every file to include all the missing global db strings, and fixed up all the missing/wrong path variables so that the programme is not forced to  be in the root only.

As for delete not working - This is more likely the problem. ;)

unlink("$directorypath/$gamesfolder/".$row['file']."");

You probably have plenty to do to FAS as it is. And while we have XAMPP etc - I doubt that you will just be doing nothing. :P

Your dir path should look something like: /var/www/arcade.com/htdocs

You start from the root of the server and go into the www directory to where the fas script is installed.

Ok well i couldnt get either of yours to work without sql errors and i just now finally got around to making it delete and give no errors. Heres the code.

Code: [Select]
function delete(){
global $domain, $db, $gamesfolder, $thumbsfolder, $template, $directorypath;

$ID = abs((int) $_GET['ID']);
$query = mysql_query("select * FROM `dd_games` WHERE `ID`='$ID'");
$row = mysql_fetch_array($query);

if($row["type"] == "1")
{

$file = $row["file"];

$myFile = "$directorypath/$gamesfolder/$file";
unlink($myFile);
}

if($row["type"] == "1")
{

$thumb = $row["thumb"];

$myThumb = "$directorypath/$thumbsfolder/$thumb";
unlink($myThumb);
}

mysql_query(sprintf('DELETE FROM dd_games WHERE ID=\'%u\'', $ID));

echo '
<div class=\'msg\'>Game Deleted <a href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="history.go(-1)"> Go Back</a></div>

';
}

Edit 2: Replaced ./../ with $domain because of seo problems.

Thanks for fixing it up, because I found other path problems when testing seo and had to replace all of the Unix paths I had created. ;)
