Razor42 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 This is another one of my learning adventures :). Basically I need a good basic topsite script which is free that I can build upon and make into what I want it to be! It's needs to be: -Built with PHP & MySQL/MySQLi -Easy to read coding -Easy to build upon -The basic topsite features (I.e. voting, adding sites etc.) And that's about it! :) thanks for taking your time to read my post :D.

a_bertrand Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 So you are looking into some existing code or want to code it yourself? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Razor42 Posted January 22, 2013 Author Share Posted January 22, 2013 Existing code to build upon, I'd create it myself but I wouldn't know where to start! That's why I need some existing code. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a_bertrand Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Start by having a list of sites, a registration and submition process, a review panel, and some sort of "voting" system. Don't forget to add some captcha and your basic top site is done. Honestly it's really not something hard... anyhow there is open source scripts which do that.

Razor42 Posted January 22, 2013 Author Share Posted January 22, 2013 Not hard for the likes of you, I have never ventured into a project like this but as my coding gets better I need to begin to test myself and learn new things so this is what's next in my learning curve! Ill see what I can do and post some updates in the next few weeks to show you how it's going :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srachit Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 A basic top site shouldnt be really difficult, I'd go about it like this: 1) Make a basic login and registration process 2) Make a page for them to add their game, here basically you execute an mysql command to take the site url and store in your db 3) Your db table should have a column for votes, default value = 0 4) Make another php file to display all url's in your db and sort by desc votes 5) Make a button on that table which says vote 6) When someone clicks that button, increase the value in your db by 1 and you have your basic voting site made, now build from here to enable only single votes per day etc :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
