Free cryptogram script for your web site or blog
Two bits of news this evening... first, we hit a bit of a milestone with our five-thousandth solved cryptogram today! Actually, we're now at 5,359 puzzles solved (after launching the site just under two weeks ago) but really, who's counting? ;-)
The other bit of news is a bit more exciting... we've been busy putting together a syndication script which will allow anyone to host a fully interactive, daily cryptogram game on their own blog or web site. You don't need to know a darned thing about javascript, PHP or even HTML for this to work - just copy and paste a small code snippet into any HTML page, and it should work for you lickety split. Your readers will be able to play the puzzle directly on your site, which should help draw in visitors and keep them coming back day after day. Best of all, a brand new puzzle will appear on your site automatically every morning at around 1.00am EST.
Web-geeks like myself can even enclose the script in their own TABLE or DIV tags to control the width, background color, etc.. Technophobes on the other hand can simply copy and paste the code and the puzzle will simply flow into your existing web site design.
In fact I've just added this very code to the template of this blog - see the right-navigation, bottom-ish of any page on this blog. (Note: Blog services such as Blogger don't allow javascript in a blog post, but they do allow you to post this code in the template of your site).
If you think you might like to add a daily cryptogram to your web site, just click here to grab the code and give it a whirl! And if you have any questions or technical problems just drop me an email at admin@cryptograms.org and I'll be happy to help you out.
Happy puzzling!
