Random Quotes

[L1]

I just remembered I also did this:

I put "php" after <? at the beginning of randomquote.php

so the config part looks like this:

<?php
/* Config Part --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
$random = true;      
$directory = "./quote/";    //Put the correct path// 
$quotefile = "randomquote.inc";           //Add all quotes in this file in one line//
$quotecountfile = "displayquote.inc";   //This counts quotes, could be optionable if random is set false//
/* End of Config Part -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------*/

and now I notice that when I take out the "php" it doesn't work anymore so that might be the only change that needs to be made, so try that first.

good luck

Sure,
anything that "(works)" .. suppose it's a bit different on different servers..

I played with this a long time and I know nothing about code but was getting the same error that ray has here, basically showing the code from randomquote.php instead of a quote.  I got it to work by doing this:

$directory = "./quote/";    //Put the correct path// 

and this

include "./quote/randomquote.php";

why that works I have no idea  :laugh:

maybe something to do with server setting?

great little mod, I love it 

thanks alot

Soo I tried to install this and will try again.
I think the reason I couldnt get it to work was cause I started on page one with all the helpful editing where as I should have looked back to see where the actual solution was.

[crip]

need any help?

[Mitch]

So if you want to pm me directions that would be cool.
