I just registered in your site but can post.
I have a question, do I need to set up a cron job for 1.0.1?
Thanks, and if I do am I supposed to do it daily or weekly?
Thanks again.

i dont see any of this:

Special page within main shop for the lottery
-Allows users to see the tickets they have entered for the current drawing
-Allows users to see their previously entered tickets and whether they have won or not
-Allows users to see previous drawings and the winners


^its not showing on my 1.1.5

lottery drawing balls are going in numeric order.. if someone picks balls 5,3,6,2 it will take it as 2,3,5,6.  Same thing for the winning balls.. if it was actually 8,5,9,2 it would set the winning balls as 2,5,8,9... any way to fix this?

why does it matter, the person will still win.... its something that should not matter...

Umm... because it's not going in the order that they pick them in.. nor is it going in the order it is drawn in = not like a lottery at all..

I understand what you are saying, but i thinks  its something that should not matter, maybe its cause of the array... So from what i can understand about PHP
Look for this

// Sort array
array_multisort($winning,SORT_ASC);

and do this

// Sort array
//array_multisort($winning,SORT_ASC);

----------------------
that above code will cancel out the sort.  I have not tested this yet.

Stupid question:

Where do I start the drawing?

[bocco]

must use a crons job

[bocco]

Is there a way to make it so that there is a winner all the time.

something like if there is no winner, then draw again till winner appears

for the drawing, you would setup a cron or manually run the file to complete the lottery

Could someone tell me how to manually run the file?

Thanks!
