Extension talk:RandomText

Explode string
Wouldn't it be easier to have the explode on a newline character  and just put each bit of text on its own line? Or, for those with longer quotes I suppose a double newline  would work. I also suppose I could just customize this bit of code for myself. Cheers - James 24.247.4.3 06:22, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

Images
I've used the script for showing random images with fairly good success.

Brilliant
I have been trying to add some random latin and greek phrases to an educational wiki running as an intranet and this is fantastic! Thanks. --135.196.19.50 10:41, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Random chooser extension
It suprises me that the random chooser extension isn't listed on MediaWiki. I think it is better for this purpose. It changes the text on every page visit - the games wikia uses it to play rock-paper-scissors.

Working with version 1.8.2
I'd like to thank you for this extension and report that it is working with MediaWiki 1.8.2.

1.12
Just tried installing this on a 1.12 and everything crashed, with unexpected '{' in extensions/ParserFunctions/ParserFunctions.php, more errors in other extensions after commenting that out, and after a reinstall of ParserFunctions, the same error. Not absolutely certain yet that random.php is to blame, but it may be worth noting. -- Sasoriza 21:55, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

1.17
Just tried to make it work with MW 1.17. There seem to be no side effects, but, on the down side, it doesn't do anything but hide the contents of. Anybody made it work with MW 1.17? --87.178.106.31 09:05, 13 August 2011 (UTC)
