I want to set up a new message for every day of the month for certain usergroups. They are actually going to be download links and they need to be replaced each night at midnight.

Here's what I've tried and it didn't work and I can't figure out why.

[[($bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==2 OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==6 OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==7 OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==9 OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==10) AND date("m.d.Y")=="04.21.2005")]]Daily Download Link[[/($bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==2 OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==6 OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==7 OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==9 OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==10) AND date("m.d.Y")=="04.21.2005")]]

I realize that I would have to basically repeat the set of conditionals changing the date section for every day of the month - but I can't even get this to show up for today - so where is my error?

Thanks

Try this:

PHP Code:

[[(($bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==6 OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==5 OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==7 OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==9 OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==10) AND (date("m.d.Y",time())=="04.22.2005"))]]

Daily Download Link

[[/(($bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==6 OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==5 OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==7 OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==9 OR $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==10) AND (date("m.d.Y",time())=="04.22.2005"))]] 


Tested and works.
