Ah. Thanks.
So this module is only for this homepage right?

There is a german url: http://www.zitate-online.de/zitatdestages.xml

which i would prefer for showing german quotes. i added this instead of the original url, but nothing happens.

Is it possible to create this module for this homepage?

@pauabaer Well that would have been handier if I knew that upfront LOL.

If I have time today I’ll rework it.

[pauabaer]

of course you are right. sorry for that. thought you need some more infos before starting moduling and was waiting for a conversation. but you were faster. :)

It’s okay :) I don’t get upset I think it’s actually kinda funny LOL

thats good. thanks for all!
at this page the quotes were updated each day at 02:00 am. is it possible that just the new one is shown for 24h and the mirror gets refreshed these times? can you display the quote with the author like in your first version?

[cowboysdude]

@pauabaer should update everyday …

@cowboysdude would be cool if the module would support multiple apis,

for english http://quotesondesign.com
for german http://www.zitate-online.de

and then the api gets selected by the global language defined in the config file with english as fallback for a non supported language
