I was looking for a random smilie thing for VB3 and couldnt find anything but i did notice this post here

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=205751&postcount=2 (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=205751&postcount=2)

I was wondering where and what i would change for it to work for VB3 RC2? Thanks for any help, i appreciate it.

Two variations, based on if you want random smilies in each group or random smilies from any group respectivly:

In includes/functions_editor.php find:

LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "imagecategory AS imagecategory USING(imagecategoryid)
ORDER BY imagecategory.displayorder, smilie.displayorder

Replace with (for random smilies within each group):

LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "imagecategory AS imagecategory USING(imagecategoryid)
ORDER BY imagecategory.displayorder, RAND()

Or replace with (for random smilies from any group):

LEFT JOIN " . TABLE_PREFIX . "imagecategory AS imagecategory USING(imagecategoryid)
ORDER BY RAND()

Untested but should work.
