I didn't "find" a script for a slot game. I paid over 1k for someone to develop it and am having issues with the database or something to this effect. I don't want a site that allows gambling so I want to remove that part and use it as a demo type thing where you get free spins. I would get the original developer to do it but I can't get in contact with them now.

Yes you are right about it being difficult because I have spent over 40 hours messing about with it so far and still can't get it to work so might have to get another one coded from scratch when I can afford it.


Then you should state that you need a developer who will complete your software because the previous one left everything unfinished and you no longer have contact with him.
It makes a big difference when you need someone to help you with setup or if you need a developer to change the code. Maybe that's how you got non-functional software, at least not what you need, and in fact, you didn't have good communication with the previous dev.
Anyway, good luck with the search.


Duly noted, thanks for your feedback.

So here's what I'd do step wise if I were you :

Disable Payment Features: To remove the bitcoin payment feature from your PHP software, look for any payment processing code (functions, API calls, etc.) and comment them out or delete them. Make sure to test thoroughly after making changes.

Free Spin Configuration: Modify the game logic to provide free spins. Look for variables or settings related to spins and adjust them to allow users to play without payments.

Deploying on cPanel and WordPress:

cPanel: Ensure all files are uploaded to the correct directory (usually the public_html folder). Double-check file permissions.
WordPress: If you are using WordPress, consider using a specific casino or gaming theme that supports slots. Plugins like "MyArcadePlugin" might help in integrating and displaying your slots game.
Fixing Layout Issues: Issues with layout (like the login button and code snippets) often arise from HTML/CSS conflicts or incomplete code. Validate your HTML and CSS, and ensure all necessary files are correctly linked.

Learning Resources: Utilize forums like Bitcointalk, Reddit, and sites offering coding tutorials to improve your skills. YouTube tutorials can also be quite helpful.

If you're still facing issues, sharing specific error messages or screenshots can help the community provide more targeted advice. You should post in the development section. Many devs here just never get out of that category in fear of ads and sig campaigns.


Thats a brilliant comment. I will take notes of your points above and have another go at it using your ideas.

Much appreciated!

If I understood correctly, you found a script for a slot game, and now you want to adapt it to some of your ideas. Adapting and modifying someone else's code is always more difficult than creating your own from scratch.
I'm not sure what kind of help you expect from here, while you have described the problem you are encountering in a very general way.

Hi everyone

I am trying to set up a slots website without ability to accept payments or win money etc but where anyone can have a quota of free spins and use it free maybe in sort of a demo mode. It would just be a novelty to see how it works and learn how to run it but cannot afford a live moneymaking site because I am too broke to fund this type of operation.

I have a PHP software programme that has some type of ability for bitcoin payments through the blockchain I think and dont know how to remove this to set up a permanent free test mode. Also I tried deploying it on cpanel and wordpress to see what it would look like but it appears as an index after first try and then eventually got it to sort of work but its a bit all over the place with login button in front and bits of code writing behind it etc.

I am no pro and trying to learn more about it but everything I try seems to either make it worse or nothing appears only a blank page.


Anyone know about how these things work ?

Thanks in advance
