Script Hotspot Password Daily using preset values

RouterOS Scripting
1

Looking for some assistance to finish off this script, I have used a portion of the calculate days of the week script from another post.

The goal.
Schedule a password change of user1 everyday based on the day of the week.
i.e
Monday = Password2
Friday = Password6

The script determines today day of the week, once the day has been determine, it will change the password to the preset variable password from 1 - 7

I have created this so far but I am not sure how to complete it as it does not work.

Thank You

I think the problem is in your :if statements. They all need to have a starting bracket { and an ending one }

Also, the first :if statement is missing the = sign after the word “do” like the other ones.

I didn’t check the top part, but your if statements had issues.

I didn’t realize until just now that in the original code there are two :if ($result = “sun”) blocks, which efaden fixed. However, I think the following code will cause issues. If today is “fri”, the password will be set correctly. Any other day (mon,tues,etc) will get the “sat” password.
:if ($result = “fri”) do={
set user1 password=$friday;
} else={
set user1 password=$saturday;
}Should be:
:if ($result = “fri”) do={
set user1 password=$friday;
}
:if ($result = “sat”) do={
set user1 password=$saturday;
}

Your right. Forgot there isn’t a good else if on router os
