image must be on your server. that means, image url must be something like this: http://fungamesonlineforfree.com/…/picture.jpg
Great! Thanks.
first i get 406errorr when i try to access the image url as it is not shown
second where can i found the language file i wanna to translate it to Arabic is it in the js?
images must be on your server. do not use images on other websites.
there is not a language file. you need to edit the php files. you can use notepad++ program.
is the image should be in the same folder of the theme or in word press folder ir just on the serveR?
just on server, like this: azkreni.com/games/…./picture.jpg
i done that and i get 406 error when i try to get the image url from the thumb
althogh the image is already in the server
and i can’t see it on the wordpress home
im use wtb game theme and i whant to use this thene how i can convert and go tom use this theme without lost any post ??
nice question. do these in gameclub theme:
1- first, export the backup from admin panel under Tools,
2- activate gameclub theme,
3- open game.php, find gameswf and change them(there are 2 gameswf) to game,
4- open functions.php in theme folder and find gameswf(there is only one). change it to game.
5- there are “description” and “how to play” informations for the games in wtb games theme. but in gameclub, there is only “how to play” information. so, you need to edit everypost. open a post in admin panel. you will see howto Custom Field. copy the value and paste it into the content field. do it for all posts.
instead of editing all posts in step 5, you can do these, too:
- open single.php in gameclub theme,
- find ?php the_content(); ?>
- paste this code after it:
< ***p>< ***?php $values = get_post_custom_values("howto"); echo $values[0]; ?>< ***/p>
note: delete all *** in code.
please check my site and please contact me and give me your messenger please
http://www.azkreni.com/games/
send me your messenger id to my mail
***[@]gmail.com
please
do the things below this reply. if they do not work, send me your admin password and ftp password. you can find my email in Contact page.
@shreef, your server does not allow 777 permission, i think. do this:
- make chmod of cache folder 775 and try.
if it did not work, do this:
- make cache = 777, timthumb.php = 755,
if it did not work, do this:
- create a /scripts folder in theme folder. cut and paste the cache folder and timghumb.php into this /script folder. open index.php. find timthumb.php?src= and make it scripts/timthumb.php?src=. also use these parmissions: scripts folder = 755, cache = 777, timthumb.php = 755
if you can see the thumbnails on homepage in New Games area, do the same things for featured.php, archive.php, single.php, search.php and tag.php.
if it did not work, do this:
- open single.php, index.php, archive.php, search.php, featured.php, tag.php and find:
< ***?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/timthumb.php?src=
delete it. find:
&w=142&zc=1&q=118
delete it.
note: there is not *** in code. i added it here because in comments, i can not write a php code.
thanks it works fine
Thank you so much!!
This bit of code/edit fixed everything!
This theme ROCKS!
thank u
its work perfect
how can i rename footer h2 ??
like Most Played Games
tell me the translation of these in arabic language. you can download the footer.php for arabic language tomorrow.
Most Played Games = ?
Highest Rated Games = ?
Most Commented Games = ?
Most Played Games = اكثر الألعاب الممارسة
Highest Rated Games = اكثر الألعاب شهرة
Most Commented Games = اكثر الألعاب تعليقا
don’t forget to save the file as unicode
utf-8
waiting the translate
thanks. please read http://www.wordpressthemesbook.com/game-club/#comment-2545
THANK U ALOT
Most Played Games = الأكثر شعبية
Highest Rated Games = الأكثر تقيما
Most Commented Games = الأكثر تعليقا
i could not translate the terms from the php file. when i paste the translation, i see only ???????.
so i added a translation part in Game Club Theme Options panel.
- download this file: http://www.wordpressthemesbook.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/gameclub-footer.zip,
- replace your header.php, functions.php and footer.php with these new files,
- go to Game Club Theme Options panel under Appearance in admin panel. at the bottom of the page, you will see a Translation part. write the translations of terms and save changes. you can also change the year in footer from this part.
i said to you
don’t forget to save the file as unicode utf-8
do this with notepad
you are right. thanks.

تصميم :
why when i tybe the name in arabic it shown on the home like this
طبخ-الد� …
not full
it should be
طبخ-الدجاج
but when i enter the name in english it shown ull word
so what could be the reason?
there is a character limit for titles. for arabic language, this will be better i think:
first solution:
- open index.php, featured.php, search.php, archive.php and tag.php,
- find this code:
< ***?php $tit = the_title('','',FALSE); echo substr($tit, 0, 14); if (strlen($tit) > 14) echo ” …”; ?>
note: there is not *** in code.
- replace the code with this:
< ***?php the_title(); ?>
note: delete *** in code.
second solution: you can increase 14 in first code(there are two 14 in code). for example make it 30 and try.
thank u admin
its work perfect
Hello, I’m from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.The template is the most beautiful and most complete games in flash that ever met on the internet. Congratulations for your work!

hi admin how to change the number of games in the index and categories from 10 to another number
in admin panel, Settings-Reading-”Blog pages show at most”.
i see that you use wtb game theme. do not delete the links in footer. read the licence.
i’m sorry because i downloaded it from the mafia site and also they are talking about the number of links it’s so much as licence i’m sorry, i’ll use the new theme and i’lll leave your copyright, thanks.
Ok, thanks for your understanding. We earn money from that links. If theme users remove them, we can not earn so we can not create new free themes. Best luck with your site.
hi admin,
there is a small prblm if you fix it it will be the best arcade game ever,
plz let us know how to let it support .dcr games in the custum fields
1- Download this file: http://www.wordpressthemesbook.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/gameclub-dcr.zip
2- Extract it and replace the old game.php with this new one.
3- If you are adding a dcr game, do not write anything in “Write the swf file url” field. Leave it blank. Go to Custom Fields, and add a new Custom Field with name dcr. Use the dcr file url as value. Again, urls must start with http://.
tx for nice theme. my problem is about permalinks. at admin panel i change to /%postname%.html but then no swf file appears when i click “play game” button and it returns to index page. how to fix this?
did you upload the game.php in main directory of your wp installation? you must upload the game.php in main directory where the wp-content, wp-admin, wp-includes folders are.
also, do not forget to tell your website url. i need to see the problem myself.
you are great admin. i noticed that i have uploaded game.php to wrong place. now it’s in the right place as you lead me, it’s working properly and i have a very nice theme! thank you very much

any option to merge “WTB Flash Games WordPress Theme”
into this theme
what is your aim?

you will not see an extra field for “How to Play” while adding a new post. as you know, it was in WTB Games Theme. write the description and how to play information in content field.
if you got any error, do not worry or edit the old posts. just tell me.
many thanks it working
Any light version of gameclub’s theme? I think this theme too dark. What should I do to change it to light version?
The words: “Searh for games”, “Bookmark this site”, and “RSS” in the top-right of the template are too dark and I want to change the font color to white. What should I do to change this?
wait for 2-3 days. a new, light game theme is ready. i will publish it in 2-3 days.
Ok, I’ll wait for the light theme. BTW, the GameClub theme is perfect for me.. Thanks for share, buddy.. I love this theme..
if you publish a new version please add this options
1 if i click on a game pic it will take me to the game post not to a mid post ( 1 click and i will play )
2 full screen option is a flash window of full screen
new theme is ready but does not include your wants.
1- game landing page is important for ads.
2- browsers does not allow us to open a full screen but i will try this.
if you want to see the new theme, click the top right banner on this page(sponsor a theme and…)
thanks.

1- enter Settings/redding and set the number of posts on one page. If you do not want to show the navigation, open index.php and remove the navigation.
2- there is a logo.png in images folder. replace it with your own logo.png.
3- you need to pay for this modification. http://www.wordpressthemesbook.com/custom-wordpress-theme/
4- which menu?
5- there is not an option to do it. if you want, you can open the swf file in a new page.
Thanks for this template.
Can you change the heading in the footer?
Changes:
Change “Most Played Games” to “Most Viewed Tutorials”
Change “Highest Rated Games” to “Highest Rated Tutorials”
Change “Most Commented Games” to “Highest Rated Tutorials”
read this please: http://www.wordpressthemesbook.com/game-club/#comment-2545
Thanks for the fix. However, after I uploaded the three files, the default “Hello World” thumbnail that appears in “Featured Games” disappeared.
I am sure it may be minor and when I begin adding flash files, thumbnails will become visible.
Thanks again.
Featured Games is not working after applying the files. Any ideas?
Disregard. After reading the instructions again, I see where I went wrong.
there is not any relationship between footer.php and featured games. you are doing something wrong.
Hi, I wonder if there is any chance of adding another custom post, that allows to play embedded games by pasting the embedding code in the custom code.
and another custom code that would allow to open another window( to direct to another website)
Your theme is great, I have been looking around for a them like this for a long time. But my website is more than flash games, so the questions.
Thanks.
this modifications needs a paid help: http://www.wordpressthemesbook.com/custom-wordpress-theme/. you can contact by an email. list me the modifications and i can tell you a price.
I wanted to say custom field in both cases…
Can the middle column of game.php be widened?
Also, can the embedded swf area of game.php be expanded slightly. The current dimensions are 700×627. I wish for the dimensions to be 800×600.
you can do them from style.css file but you need to edit some images, too(top and bottom).
I have decided to go a different route. Can the Start Game button/link open the swf file in a full screen with semi-transparent borders?
I don’t know if I am explaining myself clearly.
browsers does not let us to open a full screen page(also we can not open a swf file in full screen by clicking a link).
there are simple solutions but they are not great. because swf files width and height sizes are not suitable for monitor resolutions.
