When a 1.5 native version???

I am not yet sure when I will release a 1.5 native version.

Ok....

... mmm.... In that case...
I would be very very happy to make a "generous donation" ....

does this new version have fullscreen built in?

CSS doesn't properly render using IE7. Bottom rounded corners are out of place and padding is off/missing between menus and sections.

* Leaderboard caching and performance improvements

If beta is same as current SVN, Leaderboard not work for me, I have 30s timeout

My arcade is more than one month without leaderboard

Please can you check what indexes you have on the _puarcade table...

You should have 2, one of which is XPKLeaderBoard.

Miro and I performed a good test which eliminated a performance issue.

Ok, I'm sorry.
I tried this on my test site, where I was change DB to my general DB in global configuration where I have 46k+ scores, 1k users and 600 games. I think this was bad idea.

I will try full newest puarcade, but i have too much my modifies which I must include to newest version.

I will post report if leaderboard work.

Thanks!


Edit: What should be in #__puarcade table other? I was look at tables in general (old) DB and DB from my test site. Both tables are same.
How I know if table puarcade is indexed to leaderboard?

Hmm, where I can search bot for shoutbox?

I've played around with the css a bit and come up with some fixes to get things displaying correctly in IE7 with no adverse effects in Firefox.

in the style.css files

in section #pua_header
add: padding-bottom 5px;

(adds spacing so special folder links don't lay on top of section folders)

in section .pua_folder_games
add: height: 58px;

(corrects positioning of bottom rounded corners)

Thanks tinker!

Have you tried removing the indexes we mentioned? I don't believe there are part of the core deployment and as such could degrade the performance.

Also - are you using any other 3rd party modules which are referring to the arcade's core tables?
