Install the attached mod & set it to JavaScript mode.
If you find that mode to work then leave it set but if it fails then try PHP mode.

Navigate to this mod's settings from:
Admin -> Modification Settings -> Force IPv4 View

I just realized that I never uploaded the image, here it is

No need for any apologies, asking questions about any WebDev mods is what this support forum is all about.

You can create categories for your Arcade & have them displayed on your various Arcade skins.
If you look at "Visual Settings" in the Arcade admin & scroll down to skin settings, you should see a check-box option for "Enable Drop Down Categories".
That is enabled for some of the skins here on this forum & what you seem to be referring to is the drop-down category list.
If you want your Arcade to display categories in that manner, then enable it for your Arcade skins.

If you leave that setting disabled, it will display categories as icons in a table like structure.
One of the skins is very basic and doesn't display any category options.

BTW - if you set permissions to allow members to pick their own skin & list, they will have options in their profile to do so.
There is a profile short cut available for this in the drop-down that appears for the Arcade button in the SMF navigation bar (Arcade Settings).

.... but when I just entered your arcade, I saw the choice to "View By Category".  It was the first thing I saw, before I clicked on anything, at all.  That's what I was asking about on THIS TOPIC.

Are you able to view by category in your arcade because of the skin you're using, and it's not really a part of the arcade files?

Thank you for your patience.

Oh, I see!  (Well, I don't actually, but that's why you build arcades and I only enjoy them.)   

Thank you so much!

Thank you for the report.
The undefined error was a known issue & is already fixed for the upcoming release.

You can change that line you reported to this:
var str = "' . (!empty($_SESSION['arcade_shout_session']) ? $_SESSION['arcade_shout_session'] : substr(uniqid('invalid_', true), -5)) . '";

$txt['arcade_shout_session'] = 'Arcade Shout Session';to the ArcadeSkinC.english.php file, members who claimed they couldn't see the arcade can now see it and play on it.  That just sounds weird to me.  Why should that error have stopped them from even seeing the arcade?  Oh well...  I'm going to leave this "unsolved" until you guys weigh in, in case something else on my part should have been done.  Thank you.

2.1.4 default, the error is "Undefined index: arcade_shout_session"

The file involved is ArcadeSkinC.template.php, line 274




var str = "' . $_SESSION['arcade_shout_session'] . '";
and line 307



var str = "' . $_SESSION['arcade_shout_session'] . '";
I would appreciate any help.  Thank you.

Glad to help

You must of uploaded those images around the time I was last doing maintenance on the forum.
I have a backup of the files from Feb.6 and that backup is from 7 hours after your referenced post.

I've restored some attachments from that backup which seems to have fixed the problem.

Thanks for the report.
