im trying to design a program for the site but i dont know where to start. if you could contact me if you can help i would apreciate the help!!! i am trying to design a custom game finder for the site.
what specifically do you need help with? like someone to do it with you? or someone to explain the coding to you? or what?
Kirupa is an excellent for new devs and designers. I recommend you go there. Once you figure out scripting, try to make something like the playlists from Project Playlist. It will be similar in the aspect that you could register games (instead of songs) and instead of album you could put gametype. Clicking on the song (now custom game) usually would lead to source song, now have lead to source thread via Forgehub / other website. Don't do any forum coding in this specific program, it will not work. Keep it as an index.
Programming isn't super complex, but you'll want to know those at least BASIC before you start coding in PHP or whatever.
