Hi. we are trying to put a random quote generator above the chat box but can't find a code for this. Thanks in advance for any help.

[Feanor Ðaemorth]

like, a quote from famous people, or something similar?

or quotes of member's posts

[GuardiansWish]

i guess famous people. there used to be a code that I can't find where you would put the quotes you wanted to show up in the actual code.

[* / K I T T Y - K I T - K A T!]

are you talking about [*quote][/quote]

Looking like this?

because that come's standard on every site in the add tages sections. it looks like a paper with an arrow, its on the second row close to the end. If that is infact what you are looking for.

[GuardiansWish]

No, that's not what I'm talking about. I know how to make quotes on a board.

I realize that this site is not proboards but bear with me because I know it is possible, I've had it before.

Above their chat box is text. This changes every time you refresh the page. That is what i am looking for.

[* / K I T T Y - K I T - K A T!]

This is what they are using. how to format that to fit proboards, im not 100% sure. Im going to go take a look at something real quick and then I should be back with an update

That's almost the exact same code I use to have. I might be able to use it.

[* / K I T T Y - K I T - K A T!]

Okay, if not you will have to wait for someone else, because Im not sure of any other way to do it.

[GuardiansWish]

Yea, I'm going to have to have some help on this one. correct code and concept but i can't make it work on PB

[Feanor Ðaemorth]
