Tip of the day?

Unread post by Christian Kessner »

Today I had the idea to have something like a "tip of the day" section on our website.
I have no idea if something like that would be feasible.
Basically there would be a text field and a "database" of texts from which one should be chosen with each access to the website.
Do you see a way to do that?

Hi Christian,

There isn't a feature like that in Help+Manual but it would be quite easy to implement yourself on your website with a little JavaScript. You would just create an array of text strings with all your tips in it and a random number generator to pick out a different tip every day. Then an interval timer to have it change the text on the page with a different randomly selected tip once a day.
