We're Back Up

The site was down for a couple of days (I wonder if anyone even noticed) but it's back up now. Unfortunately, I still don't know why the site went down, and currently I don't have manual access to the database so unless I make a form-based script I'm not going to be able to add/modify things on the directory.

I did what I could though. I rearranged the items in the features list so that they make more logical sense. I've also added "(each with their own clickable icon)" to the line about tag types to make it more clear that those little icons can be clicked on to go to the associated page. I've also updated the RSS feed so that it better complies with accepted standards, although I couldn't go all the way with that because I can't manually access the DB right now.

New Genre: "Puzzle"

The "Puzzle" genre has been added, its page can be found here.

Alias tags include:

  • puzzle
  • puz
This new theme has been attached to the following games:
  • Enter the Cave

I've updated the question "Why does there have to be a webpage about the game? Don't you host games?" in the FAQ so that it has the following information as well:

"We require that a non-forum webpage or website exist because we have to link to your game somehow. Giving us only a link to the download is unacceptable. It's perfectly fine if the webpage you submit with your registration is merely a description page on some other site, but there has to be a sufficient amount of information on that page about your game. Webpages that are not descriptive enough and/or merely link to the download are unacceptable."

Fixed the title tag on the error pages and cleaned up the code in the featured_block include.

I figured out what was making the join us page not validate. I had left a couple of DIVs that were part of a code fragment of an attempt to make the "Default Button?" question on the Game Registration form stretch to fill its allotted space. Removing those old DIVs made it validate. Also, I've fixed all pages on the site so that they use the updated stylesheets include so that it doesn't display "PTv4 (preference)" for the stylesheet name whenever you pick a style, but instead the real name of the stylesheet, such as "PTv4 Blue". Additionally, I've added label tags to all the appropriate fields on public pages that have forms so that they're more accessible to the disabled.
