Solved Randomized Text

Post by Bloxx September 20th 2016, 12:55 am

Hello everyone! Today, I came here to know if there's a way to randomize the text that shows in a forum description. Like it'll change each time the forum is refreshed or like a different page is clicked.

Thanks!

What is your forum type?
Are you ok with editing the templates?

This should do it! Try adding this to your home page message:

Code:

    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>Random Message</title>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
   
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var msgArr = new Array();
    msgArr[0] = "Message  here ";
    msgArr[1] = "Message  here ";
    msgArr[2] = "Message  here  ";
    msgArr[3] = "Message  here  ";
    msgArr[4] = "Message  here    ";
    msgArr[5] = "Message  here ";


    window.onload = function () {
    document.getElementById("msgDiv").innerHTML = msgArr[Math.floor(Math.random()*msgArr.length)];
    }
    </script>
    </head>

    <body><div id="msgDiv"></div>
    </body>
    </html>

You will need to replace "Message here" with you message, but keep the quotation marks as the script won't work otherwise
