Plugin | Random Content Display

[Zegnåt]

Lines 81, 82, 85 and 86 of the plugin file (simple-random.php) tell the page what to display. As an example, if we take the quote as the title (because it’s unique) and the author as the description we would want to display title first. This means lines 85 and 86 are the ones we’ll be using.

Code:

echo htmlspecialchars_decode((string)$data_edit->content[$random_number]->contenttitle[0]);
      echo htmlspecialchars_decode((string)$data_edit->content[$random_number]->contentinformation[0]);

Let’s put some quotation marks around the quote and a dash before the author:

Code:

echo "“".htmlspecialchars_decode((string)$data_edit->content[$random_number]->contenttitle[0])."”";
      echo " - ".htmlspecialchars_decode((string)$data_edit->content[$random_number]->contentinformation[0]);

The same goes for italics:

Code:

echo "“<i>".htmlspecialchars_decode((string)$data_edit->content[$random_number]->contenttitle[0])."</i>”";
      echo " - ".htmlspecialchars_decode((string)$data_edit->content[$random_number]->contentinformation[0]);

Now if you have written It’s hard to beat somebody when they don’t give up. as the title of some random content, and gave it a description Babe Ruth, simple_random_display() will output the following HTML:

Code:

“<i>It’s hard to beat somebody when they don’t give up.</i>” - Babe Ruth

Hope you understood, you can add any HTML you want!
