Okay….ummmm… I must have done something wrong. This is the php file as I edited it:
<?php
/*
Plugin Name: Witty Text
Plugin URI: https://www.w-a-s-a-b-i.com/
Description: Outputs a random text sniplet, predefined in a text file.
Version: 1.0
Author: Alexander Malov
Author URI: https://www.w-a-s-a-b-i.com/
*/
function witty ($before = ”, $after = ”) {
$witty_file =”/var/www/html/witty.txt”; // /htdocs/blog/wp-content/plugins/witty.txt
$sniplets = file(“$witty_file”);
$sniplet = rand(0, sizeof($sniplets)-1);
echo $before, $sniplets[$sniplet], $after;
}
?>
And this is the warning I got when it didn’t work:
Warning: file(/var/www/html/witty.txt): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /www/c/chanz/htdocs/blog/wp-content/plugins/witty.php on
What did I do wrong?
ugh….someday I will figure this stuff out…..
