Title Rotater

Created By: Null Parameter

This mod is tested with 3.7.3, but may work with earlier versions.

Please leave any comments, suggestions or bugs.

Description
This mod takes a list of admin defined possible titles and chooses one randomly to be displayed as the page title for FORUMHOME. Both a prefix and postfix can be defined to encapsulate the random title.

You may also use the keyword {username} to specify the current user's name.

See the attached image for the ACP options panel.

Demo
You can see my site use this on FORUMHOME, here:
http://www.xforgery.com/forum/index.php
Refresh it a few times to see different titles.

Although, it doesn't use the postfix option.


Limitations

• This mod will not work if you have altered the default title in the FORUMHOME or FORUMDISPLAY template, or if a style doesn't use the same format.
  
  The Title code in FORUMHOME should appear like this:
  
  Code:

  ---

  <title><phrase 1="$vboptions[bbtitle]">$vbphrase[x_powered_by_vbulletin]</phrase></title>

  ---

  
  The Title code in FORUMDISPLAY should appear like this:
  
  Code:

  ---

  <title>$foruminfo[title_clean]<if condition="$pagenumber>1"> - <phrase 1="$pagenumber">$vbphrase[page_x]</phrase></if> - $vboptions[bbtitle]</title>

  ---

Fixes

* Version 1.2

• Changed {username} occurences for unregistered users to $vbphrase[guest]
• Added FORUMDISPLAY capabilities
• Added Options to enable/disable individually on FORUMHOME & FORUMDISPLAY
• Reworded a few things

This is the first mod that I decided to make into a releasable form, so I hope you like it.

Nice idea, might use it :D

is this suppose to be what i requested here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=190365

this is not what i wanted, its close, but no good for what i would like to do.

No, I wasn't responding to any request. Although, something similar might be done to make a similar affect for forum descriptions.

Liar. You responded to my request, just not formally. :D

Here's a solution to display nothing instead of the "unregistered" username for guests. Just put the if-conditional around the {username}, it must look like this then:

<if condition="$show['member']"> {username} </if>

I had considered doing that as well, but decided against it because if {username} appeared inside of a sentence then leaving it blank might make the sentence appear funny.

I thought about adding an option to disable the mod for Guests. Think this would be a good idea?

thank you

Doesn't this work?:

hahaha COOL mod.

+install.
