How to show related games based on game tags?

[Searchtheweb]

Hi,

Jan, how can I modify the relatedgames file so that it would show on a, let's say, Mario game page, other Mario games, based on the tags the game has?

Is it possible?

Very interesting Question. I am waiting for the response of Master JanArve.

Interesting one indeed. The thing you would have to do here is:

1. get the tags from the current game
2. search for a match in the other games' tags from the current games', and that could prove very resource demanding..

I'll try and see if I can't get a chance to look at this and find an easier way of doing it tonight or tomorrow, but I can't promise anything.

Hi,

Jan, my website runs on phparcadescript v 3.0 and I already have the game tags on page. The only thing remaining is the actual displaying of the related games based on tags or, even better, related through the game name: example: you are on Mario goes fishing game page and it displays games that have words like: Mario, fishing, inside title.

You have more experience than anybody, you know better, i just assume that can be done.
Thank you all very much for paying attention to my idea. It can be useful for page relevance.
