Making IDs be codes?
(*shrinks away* Sorry about all the questions.)
I was wondering if there is a way to make the system change IDs to codes. Like instead of 1, it be something like Ag3dv2? |

Yes, that could be possible but be a little bit complicated.
As an example: When you want that all the adoptables get such a code, you need first change your mysql-database. Search with phpMyAdmin (You can find it over the CP of your serverhost) for the _owned_adoptables table and change the table column 'aid' to no AUTO_INCREMENT. Now we need to set the id manually when a new pet gets adopted. Now we need to edit every file which gives new pets to the users (breeding.php/ doadopts.php). Before the script insert the new pet in the database we need to give it a unique id: PHP Code:

Well silverdragontears did this before, you may ask her how it is done. Just a quick note though, it is an irreversible change and you wont be able to use the upgrader when a new version is released. Be careful with your decision.

^_^ Okay, thanks. :)
Also, couldn't I put $ as the values instead? I read somewhere that $ are counted as variables, so if I've got, for say, five $ in the values area then it'd just put out codes like Af3tx, hgeWb, 8ebab, etc. right? Last edited by Empress_Swanbottom; 02-13-2013 at 05:09 AM. |

I do know how to do it, but right now I just don't have the time as I'm running two sites and am in the process of updating SA. You have to generate the codes and then put that piece of script in every single file that assigns ids to the adopts. |

Okay, thank you Silver. And I completely understand. ^_^ What you're doing for ToD and SA is awesome.
I thought I found a way in functions_rand, but it didn't work. :( Last edited by Empress_Swanbottom; 02-13-2013 at 05:25 PM. |

I found out how to manually make the number IDs be codes, but that could get kinda crazy and hectic as we get more people on my site... o.o
