Hello to all,
I am new to Verbots but find the possibilities very promising. I was wondering if anyone has found, or has an idea, how to make your verbot give a specific greeting on startup based on the date. for example, Saying, " Happy Halloween" on October 31. |

In your knowledgebase is a rule called _startup.
Open the rule and add a new output text:
Happy Halloween!
In the condition line write:
| Code: | | vars["_dayofmonth"]=="31" && vars["_month"]=="October" |
In the same way you can insert other special greeting outputs for Christmas, new year and so on.
Finally I would insert a condition in the standard output of _startup that prevents a reaction when other outputs should fire. This "exclusion condition" looks like that:
| Code: | | (vars["_dayofmonth"]!="31" && (vars["_month"]!="October") && (vars["_dayofmonth"]!="1" && (vars["_month"]!="January") && (vars["_dayofmonth"]!="24" && (vars["_month"]!="December") |
... and so on. |
