Newbie needs help with Random Image tag
Posted: Thu Feb 12, 2009 7:02 pm
Hi,
First off, thank you for your help. I’ve searched the forums for an answer, and although other people have posted about this same problem, no one posted how they solved it.
I'm running the latest version of CMSMS on 1&1 Lunix hosting platform (running php 4.4.9 & mysql 5.0.51a). The site I'm working on is temporarily located at: www.jasonimani.com/simple/
Just beneath the navigation (the green box right now), I have set of three randomly selected images. On the original version (before I moved to CMSMS) I was using a simple PHP script by Matt Mullenweg. I called it with:
Unfortunately, it didn’t work. I don’t know why, but whatever, so I tried other random image scripts from CMSMS code repository and each one just returns the filename of the image and not the image itself.
Here’s one’s I’ve tried:
{random_image_selective dir="images/tips/series1"}
{random_image folder=” images/tips/series1”}
What am I doing wrong? Thank you again for your help!
