Random Message Module
Allows you to create a list of messages and display them randomly (fortune).
User Section
- A block shows a random message
Random Message Manager
You reach the Random Message Manager via 'Manage Modules -> Random messages'. It allows you to:
- add new messages/quotes using the text input field (multiple messages separated with a carriage return)
- upload new messages/quotes using a plain textfile
- remove messages/quotes
Create your quotes before you activate a quote block''
Block Manager
You can create a block (using the Block Manager) with a random message using RndMsgBlock? in the name field of the block.
(Another way to use the random quotes is to add a custom function (just copy the functionality from the random-message-block) which you use in your templates.)
Note: Unless there is at least one quote in the database, you currently get some nasty-looking PHP errors when you try creating a RndMsgBlock? block.
