Like the subject says.
How do i change the MOTD?

I know that you can change the gmotd.png file, but the message stays the same.
Wheer do i change that?
Cant find it in the config panels

Because it's not there

You have to open motd.php in a text file and edit this

Code: Select all

    // Set ttf font
    $visitor = $font_path . 'visitor.ttf'; 

Change the name to any font thats in roster/fonts/

And if you wanna change the font size you need to edit two lines
(Change the 12 to your desired size)

Code: Select all

    $dimensions = imagettfbbox( 12, 0, $visitor, $guildMOTD ); 

Code: Select all

    imagettftext($img, 12, 0, $text_loc, 22, $textcolor, $visitor, $guildMOTD);

Anyway, in roster 1.7.1, we made the motd more readable

The Message of the Day is primarily set in game. If you need to change it, you can change it in your database. However it will be overwritten, once you refresh your guild.

Well, there's both answers

How to change how it looks
And how to change it

Hope one helps you out

Thnx.... didnt realise the MOTD was the same as the ingame MOTD.

Thnx

It would be nice if there were an area to change it in the update section that required the offcer password. There are many times I have to edit the DB to change it when I'm not at home and no guild update is possible.

I'm curious, maybe I missed this... I can't get the guild message of the day on my site to change. Am I wrong in assuming it should change whenever I update a character on the site? I don't see a place upload my Guild Profiler file and I thought perhpas it had been phased out?

Any help on this matter would be greatly appriciated as I'm having issues making the Announcements addon work.

Thanks for any help anyone can give in advance!

When you have GuildProfiler, you upload CharacterProfiler.lua with the Roster Admin password which updates the guild list and the GMOTD
