Posting Reactions

My forum is trying to use something that can post random images from my selection after a certain post. Though the dice generator is too limited for what I need it for. Is there any code that can make a randomization program work with the posting system?

Hello MasterofChaos,

You could probably do something through JavaScript to enter a random object into the editor. It would probably take a bit of editing on your part, though. If that's not a problem with you, I can write a small draft.

editing wont really be a problem i just no idea how to start the code lol

Okay give this a try ^^

Title : Your choice
Placement : in all the pages
Paste the code below :

Code:

$(function(){$(function() {
  var buttonImage = 'http://2img.net/i/rs3/58/frm/SCEditor/src/themes/icons/src/famfamfam/faspoiler.png';
  var n = 5;
    
  $('.sceditor-button-source').before('<a class="sceditor-button sceditor-button-randomI"><div style="background-image:url('+buttonImage+');"></div></a>');
  $('.sceditor-button-randomI').click(function() {
    var rand = Math.floor( Math.random() * n + 1 );
      
    if (rand === 1) var content = '1';
    if (rand === 2) var content = '2';
    if (rand === 3) var content = '3';
    if (rand === 4) var content = '4';
    if (rand === 5) var content = '5';
      
    $('#text_editor_textarea').sceditor('instance').insertText('',content);
    
  });
})});

At the beginning we have the variable buttonImage here you can change the icon that is displayed on the button by replacing the current URL with another. Next is n, n holds a number value which will be the amount of random results we want. Currently it is set to 5. Using Math.random() we'll add n + 1 = 0-6; our result is the occurrence of 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5, but we exclude 0 to less confuse things.

Now the last thing you need to modify is the conditions. A condition is simple : If a certain condition is met, let's say n is exactly equal to 5, then we'll display a popup saying "You win !". In this case we'll be using strings(text), see below our current conditions :

Code:

if (rand === 1) var content = '1'; // if rand contains the value 1, then this will be the resulting text
if (rand === 2) var content = '2'; // read the comment above but replace 1 w/ 2
if (rand === 3) var content = '3'; // I'll be entered into the editor if rand loves m-- I mean is 3
if (rand === 4) var content = '4';
if (rand === 5) var content = '5';

Simply put, all you need to do is replace the values between the single quotes with your own, and if you increase the value of n add another condition. So if n is equal to 20 we'll have 20 conditions, make sure to change the number in the condition too ! ex : if (rand === 20)

In your case you're adding images correct ? This is how it would look :

Code:

$(function(){$(function() {
  var buttonImage = 'http://2img.net/i/rs3/58/frm/SCEditor/src/themes/icons/src/famfamfam/faspoiler.png';
  var n = 5;
    
  $('.sceditor-button-source').before('<a class="sceditor-button sceditor-button-randomI"><div style="background-image:url('+buttonImage+');"></div></a>');
  $('.sceditor-button-randomI').click(function() {
    var rand = Math.floor( Math.random() * n + 1 );
      
    if (rand === 1) var content = '[img]/myimage.gif[/img]';
    if (rand === 2) var content = '[img]/myimage.gif[/img]';
    if (rand === 3) var content = '[img]/myimage.gif[/img]';
    if (rand === 4) var content = '[img]/myimage.gif[/img]';
    if (rand === 5) var content = '[img]/myimage.gif[/img]';
      
    $('#text_editor_textarea').sceditor('instance').insertText('',content);
    
  });
})});
