[edit] Howto sign

Hello! Your Rpotd is a good idea. When I sign, it is usually with tildes, and my signature differs from my username. Your template rewrites any name, e.g. ABC, to produce [[User:ABC|ABC]]|[[User_talk:ABC|talk]].

  • I hope that you do not mind when the contents of your rpotd is updated because of this, but, if you know of a method, please state it clearly on your page. Thanks. -- DLL .. T 22:07, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
Yes, you can change it any time if you want to. That is just a basic outline... GeorgeMoney (talk) 22:21, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Is it possible?

Is it possible to change the size of the table for the RPODT to 100%? KeybladeSephi (Talk) (Contributions) 17:06, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

Yeah. - PatricknoddyTALK (reply here)|HISTORY 21:30, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Changes

I've made some changes to the whole RPOTD set up. Most of the changes were to give the user a degree of customisablity (like the original POTD). Now the user is able to specify the format how the image is displayed (while allowing it to change everday).
{{RPOTD/{{#time:F j, Y}}|image}} gives you only the image of the day's name. I figure I'd better let everyone know my intentions so nobody's going "what heck is going on, what is this idiot doing!". I made sure nothing was disrupted while I was moving things. All the created days should be moved from the "User:GeorgeMoney/potd/" prefix to "Template:RPOTD/". Never mind that, figured a way around the different prefixes.

Also figured how to put in the current date without a lot of typing. {{#time:F j, Y}} gives you June 10, 2008.

  • "F"=the current month name
  • "j"=the day of the month
  • "Y"=the 4-digit year
