It works great on my boards...

And just to clarify something. What I did adds two additional queries to the homepage, but those queries only run when the member of the day gets changed (i.e. once a day or whenever the admin adds the parameter) so it shouldn't adversely impact the homepage's regular performance. :)

Extra cool. So those 2 queries are only added on one page view as that's all it takes to switch MOTD. I'm definitely trying to keep queries down on the home page at least...

here's a slight variation for the member of the day hack

I did it on my boards, and it works fine.

I modified the code to use the table word from vbulletin. On my forum it's called the word of the day. Some words written from the members are just fun, especially when there are typo :)

for exemple : "Word of the day : pie"

Was Vivi Ornitier's emailing idea overlooked, because I think it's a wicked idea and should be considered.

I could actually put it to very good use because of a feature on my forums.

will this Member of the day hack work in 2.3.2??

It does. We have it running on ours.

what about vb 3.0.3?

My people miss this after I upgraded.

Anyone using that on a VB2 board so i can have a look?

does this hack work on vb3.0.3? just wondering...
