  Maybe if you could choose to turn the status on/off, with off as the default?

Nice update BTW!

  New updates :

1- For game developers, you can define a background image for the game page. Just upload an image in the "extra files" field that yuo call "css_game_background.jpg". 'In cae you don't remember it's described when you click no the Information button of the "Extre files" field).

2 - A list of external links on homepage to good sites. Maybe partners later but I did'nt contact them for now.

3 - In the footer, a link to a "Games for your site" page I've quickly done with the standalone versions of BL games.

@gecko, nice, but I'm not sure many of you will maintain this status, BL can't compet with Facebook or Twitter ^_^

  Good idea!
geckojsc 17 years ago
  I just had an idea.
What if we could add a 'status' to each profile?
For example, on my profile page, I could change the status to anything I wanted, like 'On Holiday', or 'Updating Path4Mouse', or 'Making a New Level'.
Then people would know exactly what I was up to.

I just had this idea because I'm going on holiday soon and I don't want people to wonder where I am.

  Google is generally indexing our discussions quite well. So to make it easy, I've added a google custom search on the forum. Even if the latest discussions are not indexed immediately (maybe 1 or 2 days later), the search results are much better with the google technology than they would have been if I do it myslef.


The ads displayed by google can't be cut. Despite this will make a very small revenur for me, it has the advantage to get you used with ads displayed on BL. The site requries more and more work and it will be necessary one day to monetize it. So be prepared ^_^.



NOTE to the game admins, a small update has been passed yesterday but it can be important to help the evaluation of levels : when viewing a level, click on the MORE tab. You will see the logs of updates and evaluations on the current level.

  If the small space taken up by them is enough to disturb you then you need to increase your screen resolution. I use 1280x1024 and they're easily completely ignored; anything bigger than 800x600 (which is much too small for everything else) should work.

  Because it's taking space and I can't see my comments without moving the Grey line that moves the page
I don't know why but I want to see them in my every visit in my profile normally
gameinsky 17 years ago
  wtf rolling turtle , he means Why DO YOU FIND IT ANYONING?
ilikerollingturtle 17 years ago
  1. Yes
2. Yes
3. Yes
4. It's a bit annoying(I'm saying that 3rd time)
jp 17 years ago
  Be more accurate.
Do you want not to see the logs of the others ?
Do you want not to see your own logs ?
Do you want that others can't see your logs ? (I guess it's this one)

And why ?
ilikerollingturtle 17 years ago
  I mean a button that when you press the logs are showing/hiding because for some people(like me)it's "A BIT" annoying

  You'll have to wait more than 1 hour before you can.
Jac1 17 years ago
  I was going to ask that!
How do you write 2 comments one after the other?
I can't!
jp 17 years ago
  Small update, it's now impossible to rate unaccepted levels.
jp 17 years ago
  I know this is an evil feature ^_^. Maybe that's what ilikerollingturtle also means.
Jac1 17 years ago
  Wow! Now I can see how hard admins works!
I can also see how evil they are, regecting all those levels.
Captain_404 17 years ago
  Ah, but jp, now everyone will see how incredibly lazy I actually am! There will be no more excuses I can make for not making progress on anything! :P
jp 17 years ago
  What is anoying ? And what would do this button exactly ?
ilikerollingturtle 17 years ago
  There should be a button to turn it off/on because it's a bit annoying
jp 17 years ago
  Added some logs to the site. For now very few things are logged, and it's only exploited on your profile, where the 10 altest lgos are displayed (on the right side, look at my profile).

Actions logged :
- When you start to play a game
- When you create/edit a level
- When admins evaluate a level

Next we can log other things, depending on how is the charge no the server
- Play a level
- Score a level
- Post a message

I will also certainly display soon on the home page the latest logs and on each game the latest logs of this game.

[edit] you're quick shiro
Shiro 17 years ago
  Ah, a new update :)
jp 17 years ago
  Yes gecko, it's also made for this. If you think a level should be official and the game author didn't comment on the level yet, you can also use this button.
geckojsc 17 years ago
  Can an admin call for another admin if he is uncertain about weather to accept or reject a level?
jp 17 years ago
  Yes this is the typical use. And also call for an admin when you're done with the modifications.
Jac1 17 years ago
  Can you call for an admin when want an accepted/official level editable?
jp 17 years ago
  A new button has been added below each topic : "Call for an admin".

To be used with caution. Only members who has registered more than 1 month ago can use this button in order the admins are not called for nothin by people who trie this button for fun.

The button is mainly dedicated to call admins on levels when there is a need to change the status of the level.

Note to the admins, once, the action has been done, please remove the call.
jp 17 years ago
  @gundu, yes there was a bug corrected yesterday.
Jac1 17 years ago
  More.

BonusLevel website and API

First post of the topic

jp 17 years ago
  I will post in this topic to inform when I update the code of the site.

Don't post your suggestions here. Use Suggestions for the site or Suggestions for the forum or BL game ideas or create another topic.

for today, on the user profile page, the list of levels is displayed as follow :
The levels that are not yet accepted are not featured in this list except if :

- You are a game admin.
- You are the user of the profil.

Yesterday, I also added a "ShareThis" link on the game pages and the home page, in order visitors can share the pages with their friends.
