Serendipity Forums

I am not sure we are going to implement this as a plugin.
Still.
A friend of mine is building a php "quote of the day" script; it is base don a new table in the mysql db.
Now, we'd like to put the quote in the header, under the blog description.
Here's our weblog:
http://lnx.cnomania.it/serendipity
I guess we should modify the header, and the template skin.
Which is the easier and less obtrusive way to implement this php script into serendipity?
Cheers,
Davide

There are two ways to approach this. The first is to just rewrite the $serendipity['blogDescription'] field with a plugin listening to the frontend_configure hook.

The second way is just like you mentioned to edit the layout.php or index.tpl file (depending on s9y version) to just insert the functionality.

Both of those ways are alright to go

I'm using s9y 0.7...
Sorry, Garvin, which is the exact name of the layout file, and where is it located? I've tried to modify the layout.inc.php file, but I've seen no changes...

Hi!

I'm very interested in such a plugin (for s9y-cvs), too!

Depending on your plugin you need to modify templates/TEMPLATENAME/layout.php. If no layout.php file exists in your templatedirectory, use templates/default/layout.php...
