6.1.5? is my cotonti.

I found another

 

Create a new file (bbcode.php): Upload it to your main forums URL where index.php, etc is located. Remove the javascript and replace it with the following (in the bbcode section of the admin cp): You can now use [rand]Test1||Test2[/rand] and no longer "%"'s.

now my Images between [rand] Tags Dont show

im looking for other ways but i really wana get this working alot of the guys on the site use to have this and we loved it, its been used in out shoutbox news forums downloads Ect on LDU but now on SED idk how to get this to work..

Sorry if i may sound stupid. but what's the use of a random bbcode thing?

[random]one|two|three[/random] and then it returns only one of the 3 vars?
i really cant figure out a plausible reason that would explain why... surprise

anyway you could do that with a plugin i guess. check out the bbcode documentation that will give you some leads i think.

yeah as it is for a signature you could think about the following.

1. add a extra field to the users
2. make a really small plugin (sounds scary? it isnt!)
2a. the plugin only reads the string from the new extra field (e.g.: var1;var2;var3;var4)
2b. make an array out of that
2c. randomize the array
3. output only one var

that should do the trick... then you would only need one field...

but if you only want some fancy signatures you can check that <marquee> http://de.selfhtml.org/html/text/anzeige/marquee.htm
and also. since everyone could use html in their signature they can add even this to animate or make it more interesting.

but would that work for any user ?

Added 56 minutes later:

ok i have a code to put in the Functions.Php its for BBCode how would i add it ??

 

    if($name == 'random')
    {
        $parts = explode('|',$inner);
        return $parts[mt_rand(0,count($parts) - 1)];
    }
    if($name == 'noparse') return $inner;

ok. so. i never done that before but it seems that is working properly...

so some little steps for you to do:

1. go to admin.php?m=bbcode on your site
2. add a new field with the following settings:

http://www.cotonti.com/datas/users/bbcode_39.png

here is the complete code you have to paste on the right place (see above):

1st field: \[random\](.+?)\[/random\]
2nd field: $arr = explode('|',$input[1]); return $arr[mt_rand(0,count($arr) - 1)];

this allows users on your site to add an random code like [random]one|two|three|four|...[/random]

you can really do a lot with only the build in features of the framework...

hmm...
try it please with multiple post.
it had the behaviour that it only changes the value when the post was submited. only refreshing the page wont work... [this was for me, maybe your's behave differntly]
(bare with me this is my first time working with bbcode system ever. i usualy use html markup for most user freetext fields like here on cot now)
