Custom "buy this game" button?

Post by jephly »

The docs for gameinfos say you can add a custom "buy this game" button.

I added this to my project but I don't see where it shows up.

I also don't see "buy this game" buttons for any published games. Am I missing something, or are the docs mistaken?

The button shows up at the conclusion of the game in some places.

For sure, I know when reviewing/replaying an archived game (e.g., the game has ended), it will be along the top like this:

It's probably a bug that there's no "buy" button showing up anywhere on the game detail page :lol: It would be good for BGA to show it under "See more" somewhere, maybe near the publisher logo?

Ah, yes, I see it now that I know where to look for it. Thanks!

I agree it would be a nice improvement for this to show up on the game page. That's where I expected to find it.
