Random Profile Image for Forum Avatars

KawaiiChan

I'm trying to customize forum profiles & make them more appealing to the eyes.

I have a folder with a collection of forum avatars, how can I use something like %spinfolder% to make GSA create forum profiles with my avatars?

I tried to activate one of the article platforms and use %spinfolder% for avatars, hoping it would apply to forum platforms as well. It did not work for me. Any other ideas?

Sven

you can use that macro in the input field and it will use a random image from that folder next time.

Where do I find the input field?

Sven

Profile Image in the project data.

I tried using a macro there:

Profile Image|
%spinfolder-C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\Avatars100x100\W%

No effect on forum platforms.

Sven

what is that \W% at the end?

KawaiiChan

Folder called "W"

Sven

do you see no image being posted or do you see the old one posted? What engines in particular?

in my folder i have 10 images. in field "Profile Image" like this:
C:\*\*\*\images\%random-1-10%.jpg

Sven

no that \*\ will not work. You need to use a macro as explained above.

None of the forum platforms seem to produce an avatar for me.

Did you have any success replicating it yourself Sven?

Sven

not many forum engines use that field.

If a forum does not accept all kinds of images, I left it out since it would cause a lot of error messages and SER would not be able to submit.
