Topic: Random Quotes!

Hi everybody!

I´ve been searching for an addon who will insert a random quote into "Board Description".
The closest one i found  is "random bash quote", and thats not what i want.
it doesn't have to be fancy, for all i care it could fetch a random line from a *.txt file.

i´m sure its easily done, but i´m a complete php-n00b unfortunately :S

does anyone have what i´m looking for?

Re: Random Quotes!

In header.php, where it says SUBST <pun_desc>, put something like this:

$quotes = file('quotes.txt');
$tpl_main = str_replace('<pun_desc>', $quotes[array_rand($quotes)], $tpl_main);
