Triqui MochiAds Arcade plugin for WordPress official page
Welcome to Triqui MochiAds Arcade plugin for WordPress official page
This is the one and only official page for this plugin, so check it frequently!
It works with Triqui MochiAds Arcade theme for WordPress and allows you to create an arcade site based on MochiAds games.
CURRENT VERSION IS 1.2 RELEASED ON FEBRUARY 26, 2010
I suppose you know how to install and configure a WP plugin. So I will only focus on this plugins features.
MOTIVATION
This plugin is intended to turn your WP blog into a MochiAds arcade site that will allow you to earn money both with Adsense (or other kinds of web advertising) and MochiAds publisher program.
Unfortunately, there are a lot of portals and a lot of crappy games (among them, some of mine!!) so you won’t have a chance to attract a decent number of visitors if you just publish games.
That’s why in this plugin you will have to add games manually. You have to create your niche arcade site if you want some chanches. No matter if you create a racing games portal or a portal with all game names starting with “T”… you must create your niche.
Read Case history: creating a successful niche Flash arcade site for some hints.
PAGES
The plugin has four pages, but once installed and configured it, you will need only two of them.
I designed the plugin to make game management as quick and simple as I can.
MochiAds page
This is just a welcome screen, quite useless but it contains a “Donate” button, so check it frequently :)
1.2 upgrade: news and issues about the plugin will be prompted in this page by an iframe
Setup page
If you are installing the plugin for the first time, you just updated the plugin, you don’t remember if the plugin is up to date or simply you don’t know what to do and it’s raining, click on “Setup”. This page will create all necessary tables, directories and categories in order to make the plugin work.
If your configuration is up to date, this page simply does nothing.
1.1 upgrade: this page also checks for duplicate games, and purges the mochi table to keep it as light as possibile. Why should you have duplicate games? Because the unique game id code changed from uuid to game_tag during MochiAds‘s feed development.
Feed Games page

MochiAds updates the list of games in its distribution feed once a day. So you should call it once a day.
Games you already have in your database are marked in gray, while new games are marked in green.
In the upper form you can see “Looking for the first 100 games from offset 0”
100 represents the number of games you are retrieving from the feed. The feed at the time of writing contains more than 8,000 games, but with numbers higher than 1000 you can stress your server. Moreover, if you run this page daily, you should never enter a number higher than 200
0 represents the offset, and can be used to retrieve old games from the feed without stressing the server.
Example: you want to retrieve the last 1,000 games… it’s preferred to run the page twice with 500-0 and 500-500 rather than asking for 1000-0.
Playing with these two numbers will allow you to grab the entire feed in a matter of minutes, step by step, offset by offset, with no stress for the server
1.1 upgrade: the plugin now supports the new feed options to enable new micro-transactions revenue share for Mochi publishers
Manage Games page

This is the page that will manage your blog
** IMPORTANT ** Never add or delete a post from the “Posts” section in your WP Dashboard or you won’t be able to manage the game linked to that post from the Manage Games page.
Each game has three status (statuses?), and all games can be previewed directly from this page clicking on “Play”.
new: the game is (guess what?) new, this means you haven’t decided yet whether to publish it or not. With this status, the game does not appear in the blog. New games are listed in gray.
You have two buttons: Publish and Don’t publish. Clicking on the first one will turn the game to published status while clicking on the second one will turn the game to unpublished status.
published: when a game is published, it means you published it on the blog. By default, when you publish a game, you leech the swf from Mochi servers so you won’t earn money as a publisher (publisher status OFF), but you can turn on this feature, and the swf game file will be copied in your directory (publisher status ON) allowing you to earn money with “MochiAds publisher program.
Then, if you turn off the feature, you will start again leeching the game from Mochi servers and the swf game file will be deleted from your game directory
With the “Delete” button you will turn the game to unpublished status and eventually delete the swf game file from your directory, if you had publisher status ON
Notice: always check the game size before turning ON the publisher status: some hosting services have limited space and limited bandwidth, and if you copy a lot of games you may run out of space and/or bandwidth. Check your hosting company for more information.
Also notice: If you are using Triqui MochiAds Arcade theme you will need to edit one line to make it work with publisher option, or you’ll continue leeching games even if their publish status are ON.
I am preparing a new version of the theme with some interesting improvements including this one, meanwhile open index.php page into your Triqui theme folder and change line 17 (the line starting with <embed src = "... just in case you edited the theme) with
<embed src="<?php if(file_exists(WP_PLUGIN_DIR."/mochi/mochigames/".$post->ID.".swf")){echo WP_PLUGIN_URL."/mochi/mochigames/".$post->ID.".swf";}else{echo get_post_meta($post->ID, "swf_url", true);} ?>" menu="false" quality="high" width="<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, "width", true); ?>" height="<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, "height", true); ?>" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" />
Notice too (last one): The “Delete” button only works on games published with the “Publish” button. You can’t delete games inserted with the old (and discontinued) version of this plugin – the one that published games automatically – If you want to delete one of such games, you must delete it from the “Post” section in the WP Dashboard.
unpublished: a game gets the unpublished status when you decide you won’t publish a new game, or when you delete a published game. An unpublished games does not appear in the blog and is listed in red. You can publish an unpublished game clicking on the “Publish” button.
In the upper form you can choose how many games you want to manage in the page, the offset (works in a similar way as the feed offset), what kind of games (new, published or unpublished ones) and a string they have to contain in their name.
1.1 upgrade: games with Mochi Coins enabled are marked with a $$ before their name (check Planet Basher 2 to have an example).
In the upper form now you can extend the search to game tags
I will add more options soon, I am open to any suggestion.
DOWNLOAD
Here we are… time to download the plugin. It’s free to use, modify, hack and so on. However, if you are making money out of it, my PayPal address is triqui@libero.it, just in case…
Also remember I won’t give support to any request if you change some code in the plugin
Download the plugin and enjoy.
I would like to hear your opinions.

What should we put for the autopost URL on mochi? for example http://www.mysite.com/blog/wp-content/plugins/mochi or what! PLEASE HELP!!!
How do I add specific games to my arcade site? I’m interested in adding the best games from yesterday through to years ago.
when i clicked go i cant see any feed post/ game list…. :(((
not working for me :(. i get the same ‘No new games at the moment…’ error as in the previous versions…even on a fresh blog. is this something to do with my provider?
The plugin works great, thanks, but it desperately needs the ability to do mass actions. Having to add games one by one makes me consider reverting back to the old version. I would love it if you added that in next update.

Great plugin. I hoped it would be just what I was looking for but sadly not. I would need something with a lot more features really. I like to have a lot more control over what I’m publishing rather than just the games such as what category to put it into, descriptions, tags etc.
I’m sure many people will find it very useful though so nice work. I guess I’ll have to find a simple way to add games myself.
plugin wants php 5.2
Hey.
I got the plugin and it seems to be working fine. However the publish does not appear to be working it is not downloading the files on to my server.
Any ideas?
Very nice plugin. Maybe for the next update there can be an option to schedule game posting.
I went successfully 3 steps of installation:
1)Welcome screen,
2)Setup page (Mochi Directory, Categories, Mysql table are successfully created)
3) Feed games – I got list of 100 games
But nothing happens on last page – Manage Games page.
Nothing :(
Blank page with message “No games with these search options”
Please, help me
Please help! When I say feed games it says No new games at the moment…
@Tam Bir Blog – I hav php 5.2.9 and its not working
Cheers man. This is awsome. I have managed to get this to work now. I just deleted my previous sql table and done a fresh install of the tables.
Now it works a treat. Any plans on adding to the plugin to add leaderboards using the bridge?
….please post instructions! or email me them :)
Hi,
when I turn on the publisher feature, i am getting an error:
Warning: copy() [function.copy]: Unable to access http://games.mochiads.com/c/g/marble-roller/roller4.swf in /mnt/data/accounts/v/van0/data/www/hrejonlinehry/wp-content/plugins/mochi/mochi.php on line 189
What should I do to make it work? Thanks in advance.

Hmmm… this is SURPRISINGLY similar to MyArcadeBlog plugin…bit too much similarities in fact… I cannot help wondering why?
Dr T
where do u put the publisher key??
@ket: I don’t – I am getting the feed anyway
@Dr T: never heard about it – but if you retrieve feeds, copy files and publish games, of course they are similar – Maybe you got inspired by tutorials I published last year :)
Hi, i also get the ‘No new games at the moment…”
can anyone help me? pls
Dear Emanuele Feronato,
Thnx for the Plugin. I just got everything working …BUT…MochiAds isnt showing anything of Impressions or that the Ads r getting counted. I made sure that the Flash Games r on my Website and also setup em for Publisher Stuff etc. but in the Dashboard of MochiAds arent displayed Page Impressions for em. Any ideas ?
Emanuele thanks for publishing the plug-in, recently i’m trying to built new portal your files
i add my publisher id on line 559 (in mochi.php), it works great
but i couldn’t understand why custom fields still shows “swf_url” section from mochi’s swf files(i turn swicth on)??
I checked gamepage source, they are shown from my own hosting and mochi counts impressions..
@SantaCruze
Open your mochi.php find 559th line and change codes from
http://www.mochiads.com/feeds/games?format=json&limit=$_POSTlimit&offset=$_POSToffset
to
http://www.mochiads.com/feeds/games/PUBLISHERID/all/all?format=json&limit=$_POSTlimit&offset=$_POSToffset
Okay i changed it. How long does it take till i can see the Page Impressions in MochiAds ?
how i earn money Mochiads publisher program.
Heya again,
Thnx for the Help Serhan, it worked. But now ive a new Prob, i tried to insert AdSense into the Template but some of the Code like the pub-id and the channel is getting greyed out once i insert it into the template. Any1 got some suggestions how to fix that ?
Emanuele,
Integration with the mochi bridge and the leaderboard seems like it would be something that is defiantly needed or desired.
From a design standpoint I have no idea how to integrate it onto the game page. Unless the template was widened. None the less I would be more than happy to pay for this to be included. Feel free to reach me at my email address.
Nice plugin, for the next update could you add a category filter? So its a bit easier picking out the shooters or adventure games. But great plug-in can’t wait to set up my site.
@SJG: thanks for the donation and the ideas: I am going to add them to the plugin/theme
@Emanuele,
Bug Report: The RSS Feeds seem to take a date of 1999 for some reason when using the standard publishing method inside the Mochi Control Panel.
I am not sure what it uses to trap that but it is possibly something to do with the way that it is posting the article.
I did find that while the twitter plug ins would not work without modification to the hook that calls the post that a good way around it was to use the ping.FM plug in for automatic updates when games are posted!!!!! WOOT!
Another suggestion, search by tags as well as category or names. What would be awesome is if we could search featured and limit to a category.. even the mochi site cant do that, but the JSON should let it :)
Hmmm another date issue, the date that gets used for “Latest Posts Widget” pulls the date that seems to be the date the game was approved on mochi.
Ahhh Rss goes off of Post Date GMT
Ok here is the fix for the post features to post with the correct date and the gmt offset.
function mochi_add_games($id){
global $wpdb;
$id = intval($id);
$inserted = false;
$row = $wpdb->get_row(“select * from “.$wpdb->prefix.”mochi where status != ‘published’ and id = $id”);
if($row){
$inserted = true;
$cat_id = array();
foreach($row as $varname => $varvalue) {
$$varname = $varvalue;
}
$categs = explode(“,”,$categories);
for($x=0;$xprefix.”mochi set status = ‘published’, blog_id=’$post_id’ where id = $id”;
$wpdb->query($query);
}
}
[code]
function mochi_add_games($id){
global $wpdb;
$id = intval($id);
$inserted = false;
$row = $wpdb->get_row("select * from ".$wpdb->prefix."mochi where status != 'published' and id = $id");
if($row){
$inserted = true;
$cat_id = array();
foreach($row as $varname => $varvalue) {
$$varname = $varvalue;
}
$categs = explode(",",$categories);
for($x=0;$xprefix."mochi set status = 'published', blog_id='$post_id' where id = $id";
$wpdb->query($query);
}
}
[/code]
Grrrr… wont post it correctly.
In the add game section add and change the following lines
$post['post_date'] = current_time(‘mysql’, 0);
$post['post_date_gmt']= current_time(‘mysql’, 1);
SJG, can you post the new mochi_add_games() function please?
I don’t get what’s supposed to be changed or replaced in the code you posted.
and thanks for your help :)
@Mel
I cant post long code on the comment box. It screws up the formatting.
But what you do is where it builds the Querry Array to enter it into mySQL you change the post_date value to current_time(‘mysql’,0); which means the current time and the GMT time is with the GMT offset. Search for $post['post_date'] and you should see what I am talking about. Prior to this change it ads the date the game was approved on mochi…
To randomize the front page…
in home.php before “The Loop”
Add
ABOVE
haha ok now I cant post php tags…
this link says what to do…
http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/query_posts
Keep getting:
“Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 25952256) (tried to allocate 26285537 bytes) in /home/public_html/domain.com/games/wp-content/plugins/mochi/mochi.php on line 283″
This happens whenever I try to “feed games” I fed the first 100 and it worked.. now it no longer works.
Also does anyone know how to add games manually?
In a reply to my own thread above. It seemed as if I had to delete the plugin and all of it’s files then re-install the plugin and it is now working!
—
Does anyone know hot to add games manually so you get credit/money from the publisher standpoint? (Download the zip from mochi ads, then upload, then what?)
Thanks,
Ricardo

Hi! I would like to add a page that runs Mochi Games on it and add it to our overall site. I don’t want a full games portal, just a page that features mochi games. I’ve read the article and the comments but I’m unsure if this is what I’m looking for.
Thank you for the help!
Trina
Emanuel,
Mochi has broken the feed.
Here is what happened, they have added a new field to the feed called
coins_revshare_enabled
Since this is not in the database currently, the feed will error out, although it will not show you this unless you trace the SQL back.
The fix is rather simple I think and that is to add the coins_revshare_enabled field right after the recomendation field. I will try to post the new sql insert that is generated but your comment system hates when I post code…
insert into fgt_mochi (rating,author,key_mappings,height,recommendation, coins_revshare_enabled, uuid,width,thumbnail_large_url,tags,controls,swf_url,recommended,game_tag, zip_url,updated,description,author_link,swf_file_size, game_url,slug,categories,instructions, name,created,control_scheme,popularity, feed_approval_created,coins_enabled,thumbnail_url, leaderboard_enabled,resolution,status)values(‘Everyone’,'funkypear’,”,’500′,’4′,”,’317d1d39-9b73-3a72-80a0-0c20a5d1aa07′,’700′,’http://thumbs.mochiads.com/c/g/gravitee-2_v2/_thumb_200x200.jpg’,'Gravitee,Golf,Space,Planets,Worm Holes,Ball,Mouse Only,Stars’,'fire=left_mouse;jump=na;movement=arrow’,'http://games.mochiads.com/c/g/gravitee-2_v2/gravitee210.swf?affiliate_id=01f130501bb58ab5′,’1′,’2221db602d0eec6b’,'http://cdn.mochiads.com/c/g/gravitee-2_v2.zip’,’2009-08-13T21:05:29-08:00′,’Gravitee is back!

needs to be added as well.

Thanks for reporting it.
Fixed and upgraded :)
thanks for the new version, I have a couple of sites, early days but I reckon they’ll do ok – I’ll make a donation as soon as they’re making dollars rather then cents!
emanuele,
I found there are about 10 fields that need to be updated. Thumbs/UrL 1-5, Alternative URL, Coins, And Video Url….
Yikes… So I have mine updated now… Did you include my date fix in your 1.1?
At the moment I found and fixed the plugin for these ones:
coins_enabled
coins_revshare_enabled
screen1_thumb
screen1_url
screen2_thumb
screen2_url
screen3_thumb

Hey I LOVE your flash game set up! Thank you so much for putting the time into to help others! I have used your site as a reference many many times!
Here is the site I am using ur template on and will continue to improve it:
http://gamegab.com/MoreGames
Also, how much is a good amount to donate to you as I think it is only fair!
Emanuele Feronato, the plug that remains is to download the version 1.1 you can hang the version 1.11 thanks …
@antonio: the link points to 1.11, where are you downloading it from?
The discharge of the above link but when I looked inside at the head of mochi.php plugin puts it:
Plugin Name: MochiAds Arcade Plugin
Plugin URI: http://www.emanueleferonato.com/triqui-mochiads-arcade-plugin-for-wordpress-official-page/
Description: Turns your blog into a MochiAds Arcade portal.
Author: Emanuele Feronato
Version: 1.1
Author URI: http://www.emanueleferonato.com/
It would be cool if there were a way to supply embed codes below each game for people, so that they could put the games I host on their websites & I could get credit from Mochiads for it.
Emanuele,congratulations to thema and plugins, I installed to http://www.wordpressgames.net best games portal
I installed the plugin last night, but it says “No new games at the moment…” both at the Feed games, and the Manage games page. I tried everything mentioned in the comments (deleted the wp_mochi table from the database, deactivated and activated the plugin, deleted, and reinstalled the plugin, edited the mochi.php to include my publisher id), but it is still not working.
Is there anything else I should try to make it work?
All I get when I try to install is:
Incompatible archive PCLZIP_ERR_BAD_FORMAT (-10) : Unable to find End of Central Dir Record signature
Hello Emanuele! This plugin es incredible!!!
I try to use another theme to use de the plugin and this is the result!!!!!
http://gamesonline.wallpworld.com
thanks!!!
Any word on when the next update of the plugin/theme might be out? I notice that the triqui site is supporting some form of mochi highscore integration and I would love to see a tutorial on that. Thanks again for your work on these two excellent products!
Emanuele
I added
add_post_meta($post_id, ‘slug’, $slug);
to the plugin so that it also stores the slug information so i can display the leaderboard bellow the games
http://www.lingolux.com/2009/06/19/mazeroll/ as an example
I found your plugin and template after i have installed arcadem on my slovak site http://www.videohry.com . i post the new games on facebook and i have some english friends so i felt like doing an english version. so i have used your script and template and installed it on http://www.gamebot.org . now some slovaks are upset that their site is not so cool as the english one ;). thanx again for the great plug-in and template. i m not a coder and had to play with it a bit, but it rocks. I fish i could implement latest scores on my site, but maybe one day. i am not making any money from my sites yet, but i will donate.
how do I add game to the sidebar as displayed in the screenshot.png?
Also, DO I still need to amend as described above?
———
<embed src="ID.”.swf”)){echo WP_PLUGIN_URL.”/mochi/mochigames/”.$post->ID.”.swf”;}else{echo get_post_meta($post->ID, “swf_url”, true);} ?>” menu=”false” quality=”high” width=”ID, “width”, true); ?>” height=”ID, “height”, true); ?>” type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” pluginspage=”http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer” />
——————
As per the style.css,it has “Version: 1.0″.
does anybody know how to add a game or Featured Game in the sidebar?
Well I’m curious by nature so I had to try this. I must say everything worked perfectly. Excellent work Emanuele.
http://www.worldsbestever.com
By reading these comments I say 70% of these problems are because of your host. If you plan on using this, then first of all get a good hosting account. Pay those 7$/month, you’ll get them back eventualy.
How do i add thumbnail to the games? Please
@LingoLux.com,
How did you add High Scores on your website?
Can you share this please?
THanks
@LingoLux.com,
Did you add these custom fields individually?
add_post_meta -> $post_id,
add_post_meta -> ’slug’
add_post_meta -> $slug
Or In One line ?
add_post_meta -> ($post_id, ’slug’, $slug);
I tried putting them in one line but couldn’t see any output on the website?
Can you help on this please?
Thanks,
Hi, if you get “No new games at the moment” you need to edit your php5.ini in your server and turns on “allow_url_fopen = on”
please help me! not working.
http://www.fatihcamci.com/category/games
is it possible to bulk enabled and bulk publish games? or do i have to do it 1 by 1?
is it possible to have a desired amount of games automaticly published and show on page each day?
is it possible to have some games show randomly on your frontpage?
for example i want one table of game to be random games and 2nd table to be new games..
thank you, great project!
i added the code
add_post_meta($post_id, ‘slug’, $slug); to the plugin mochi.php
then
var options = {partnerID: “xxxxxxxxxxxx”, id: “leaderboard_bridge”,globalScores:”true”,gateway : “http://www.lingolux.com/wp-content/themes/triqui/postscores.php”,callback : function (params) {document.getElementById(‘latest’).innerHTML=”Your latest score: “+params.score;}}; Mochi.addLeaderboardIntegration(options);
in my theme…
i also followed the instructions on creating a plug-in and added the high scores
p.s. just finished my first game http://www.lingolux.com/2009/11/18/mr-crabbys-beach-ball-adventure/
I think I liked your older plugin better as the new one doesn’t have any mass features, I’m talking about publishing all games at the very least an “all checkboxes”, and “publish all” per page. Then a same feature to “Turn On” publisher revenue same as above.
I saw you wrote about niche game sites, but for the people who would like all the games clicking and waiting for the processes to update for 24,000 clicks is just silly.
I was just gonna go into my db and set everything from unpublished as published until i noticed there was game id and the other with empty information.
I do like the newer panel, but think about including the mass update features, I for one don’t have time to sit there and keep clicking away for weeks at a time, but yet I want all the games available.
Thanks, keeps up the good work your doing and is appreciated by many.
I currently have a problem with publishing games. They all display but when i hit the publish button nothing happens. Any ideas?
I m getting this error – Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/xxxxxx/public_html/wp-content/plugins/mochi/mochi.php on line 63
Please help me solve this issue
I’m getting this warning when request feed: Warning: file_get_contents(http://www.mochiads.com/feeds/games?format=json&limit=10&offset=0) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: HTTP request failed! in …

The theme and plugin works great, thanks!
One thing though… in order to get your theme compatible with the “WP-PostRatings” plugin there is a small change that is necessary:
Add “” before the tag in the footer.php file and add “” before the tag in the header.php file.
Before I did the above the rating stars were there but they were unclickable :)
Check out my site if you’d like: roflninja.com. The font I used in the logo can be found here: http://www.urbanfonts.com/fonts/Sketch_Rockwell.htm I also made a few small changes…
Thanks Emanuele!
oops the above comment removed the PHP.. I should’ve known :P I also spelled my name wrong -.- Well if you go here http://forums.lesterchan.net/index.php?topic=1778.0 and look at the third post by “GaMerZ” he basically says the same thing I did :)
Is anyone else experiencing problems getting games from the feed again?
I haven’t been able to get anything for several days now. It times out and throws an error.
Nevermind. It appears to be a problem with my host – not a problem with the script.
I can get new games (last 100) now). But if I want games from the problematic datum (last 500 game) then I get the same error.
Hi Emanuele,
First of all,i would like to say that you made a good job and thanks for this wonderful plugin.
Is there any modified plugin to add games manually like in a arcade script? You will make one?
Thank you,
Cristian

Hi Emanuele,
its me again, reporting the bug in the plugin I found earlier today.
In line 331 of the mochi.php your escape the values of the mochi feed manually like this:
$values.= “‘”.str_replace(“‘”,”\\’”,$$varname).”‘,”;
This line of code does not escapes apostrophes correctly, which resulted in a mysql error when this character is included in the feed.
I changed this line to:
$values.= “‘”.mysql_real_escape_string($$varname).”‘,”;
to fix this problem.
Maybe you’re escaping this way in some other place too, which is potentially harmful, but I did not check for that.
I hope this helps, and thanks again for your great work!
I have good traffic on my website.
On Mochiads in my publisher report I don’t see any impression since I launched my site.
Does anybody why is it not showing anything? Do I need to change anything in the file?
I use , publish and ON.
thanks in advance
i need some help!!
i try follow every solution from this blog for solve my feed game. but my feed status still “No new games at the moment”.
I really need to use this plugin. Anybody can hepl me? please.
i try this plugin in my localhost (appserv) and it’s work!!
but when i try using on my real host with feed game, this text is show “No new games at the moment”.
Why? and What i can do?
p.s. i try to change url of “$mochi_url” and it is not work for me.
I think they updated something today (Feb 25th) and it may have broken the feed. Am I the only one who gets the games but they don’t appear in the manage part?
Dear all,
It was ok last week. I could feed games, manage them without any problem.
But today, i see new games in green in the Feed Games page but can’t download and publish them at all.
Does anybody knows why it is happening?
Thanks.
Umid, actually, it was ok this afternoon (of the 25th of February), but like I said, I think MochiAds updated something related to how they rate a game before they publish it and perhaps that may have messed up our feed.
Hopefully Emanuele will save us all!
[...] So I am releasing the new version, compatible with the new feed and tested with WordPress 2.9.2. You can find it at the official page. [...]
updated :)
How do we apply your update to our website? Or should we download and re-install your plugin?
just overwrite the files.
Thanks SO much, works like a charm :)
I over wrote the files, I displays the games, but when I click on “Manage Game”, I get – No games with these search options. – Any clue?
Also, a format to put in the publisher ID would be
a helpful.
Thanks in advance
worked.
cheers

I installed this script. But why is there no sidebar? Also, I get an error whenever I try to turn the publisher feature on for the games.
you have to login to your wp-admin then go to themes, click widgets..from there you can drop widgets
Hello, I am using the 0.9 beta of this plugin, and the theme 1.1 i belive but i want to upgrade so i can earn….
when i upgrade plugin games are not ther, i have found problem is that it gives url like swf=/home/thetmys1/public_html/mydomain.com/wp-content/mochiadsplugin/gamecontent/blahblahetc…..
i got to make it get rid of /home/thetmus1/public html so its just /wp-content/plugin/game…
The script creates posts but they’re empty. Also, can’t see them on the index page. I’m using the buddypress, not the games template.
In the manage games section, games can be loaded using the showswf.php link, I don’t understand why the newly creaqted posts are empty instead of containing the game.
Any idea on this?
Where do you insert your Publisher ID? or we are using your Mochi Publisher’s ID?
Thanks

Hello,
Using WP 3.0 and your newest theme and plugin. When I go to SETUP I get an error for category
Fatal error: Class ‘IXR_Error’ not found in /home/XXXX/public_html/wp-content/plugins/mochi/mochi.php on line 344
it’s a very good Wp plugin
Hi, I test the plugin on localhost in my computer but i get no games.
The plugin works on localhost?
It seems to be a good plugin and i want to use on my existing site in order to add niche content but i want to be sure before mess up the live site.
Thanks
can you post php in WP 3.0?
Problem solved.
It was from php.ini settings.
Mochi feed is huge and requires memory.
So, i changed the upload_max_filesize to 64M,
post_max_size to 64M and memory_limit to 128M in php.ini file.
This settings works on my localhost.
I hope this helps if you can’t see games.
Thanks
Hi Emanuele,
This is an excellent plug-in. I’ve been working on an arcade theme for themeforest using your plug-in: http://www.tonylea.com/go/wordpress/arcadepress/ I wanted to ask your permission to use the latest version of this plug-in bundled along with the theme?
Thanks so much. You rock!

my script started to behave weird. id does the same like riki’s 149. post and changing the mentioned vasriables did not help. but what is worse it does not show me the newly fed games in “manage games”. it feeds them, but does not show. the newest games it shows are games from january this year. any ideas? thank you
nobody? ok here is the other case. i have reinstalled the script. worked like charm until i was loading the set of 6000. again. it feeds it, but the manager shows no games.can anybody help? please?
Now the script playing the same game in manage games, doesn’t matter what link I clicked on, it playing the always the same game. May the mochi feed changed again?
Hi,
Fantastic plugin!
I’m trying this at localhome and i can only see 10 games/page.

One last but no less important thing: where should i put my publisher ID?!?!?
Thx!
Thx for plugin.

Thanks so much.
Is there a way to hide some categories from appearing in the home page??
For example, i want to write some text posts (under Text category) and don’t want that appear between games at home page. Is there a way to do that?
Inside MochiAds plugin (at manage games tab) is there a way to search for a specific game by name? For example, how i can find “Stunt Bike Pro”?
I am having great difficulty setting up this plugin. First problem is as follows;
Fatal error: Class ‘IXR_Error’ not found in /home/pro1/public_html/BeatTheStreets/wp-content/plugins/mochi/mochi.php on line 344
That’s what’s on the set-up page, how do I fix it-just for starters
