So from what I can tell this is one Clippy anim saying one thing only? Or is its content depending on where in a forum you are?

I.e. does Clippy say annoying things like "it looks like you want to write a post!" and "it looks like you want to search for something"?

Which would be an awesome April Fool's by the way, especially if you could add custom "events"...

And in fact, it could become a useful feature too... sans Clippy ;)

I was actually thinking about and to integrate this feature, I also have to fix the problem that when no forum is selected, clippy appears in all forums.

You mean to give users the option to not show the character by adding a button below the character?

๐Ÿ†New Version 1.0.3.
Fixed the issue regarding the character behavior if no forum is selected, Clippy will not appear in any forum, before it was the other way around.
