Initial release contains only broken links and history. Current status: Random edits in progress! Developed originally for the ADN Wiki, and intended to generate a pithy or useful quotation every day of the month. Useful, pnut-specific facts would be nice to show on the Main Page. |
A sample Quotation-Of-The-Day snippet for transclusion into another page
For the pnut.io Wiki, of course.

Feeling artistic? Want to start up a #TuesdayChallenge?
It uses code like the following, the middle is removed for brevity:
{{#switch: {{CURRENTDAY}} |0=Something went wrong. Bend over. |1=What's happening? [[Events|This is.]] ... |31=The pnut.io Wiki has [[ToDo|pages that need work.]] |32=Something went wrong. Hands up! }}
The 'switch' command uses a system variable 'CURRENTDAY' and looks through a list of entries starting with a "|" and a number which corresponds to the CURRENTDAY of the month. '0' and '32' are superfluous.
