STEP 1

Please Support My work by Making a Donation.

STEP 2

Go to File Station and open your favorite shared folder, in my case, web. Inside your primary shared folder, create one new folder and name it wallpapers. Follow the instructions in the image below.
Note: Be careful to enter only lowercase, not uppercase letters.
Note: web is an example of a shared folder. You have to create the wallpapers folder inside one of your shared folders, not necessarily web.

STEP 3

Go to Control Panel / Task Scheduler / Create / Scheduled Task / User-defined script. Follow the instructions in the image below.

STEP 4

Once you click on User-defined script, a new window will open. Follow the instructions below:

General: In the Task field type in Daily Bing Wallpapers. Select root for User and check the Enabled option.
Schedule: Select Run on the following days then select “Daily“. Set Frequency to Every day.
Task Settings: Copy paste the code below in the Run command area. After that, click OK.

savepath="/volume1/web/wallpapers"
pic=$(wget -t 5 --no-check-certificate -qO- "https://www.bing.com/HPImageArchive.aspx?format=js&idx=0&n=1")
echo $pic|grep -q enddate||exit
link=$(echo https://www.bing.com$(echo $pic|sed 's/.\+"url"[:" ]\+//g'|sed 's/".\+//g'))
date=$(echo $pic|sed 's/.\+enddate[": ]\+//g'|grep -Eo 2[0-9]{7}|head -1)
tmpfile=/tmp/$date"_bing.jpg"
wget -t 5 --no-check-certificate $link -qO $tmpfile
[ -s $tmpfile ]||exit
rm -rf /usr/syno/etc/login_background*.jpg
cp -f $tmpfile /usr/syno/etc/login_background.jpg &>/dev/null
cp -f $tmpfile /usr/syno/etc/login_background_hd.jpg &>/dev/null
title=$(echo $pic|sed 's/.\+"title":"//g'|sed 's/".\+//g')
copyright=$(echo $pic|sed 's/.\+"copyright[:" ]\+//g'|sed 's/".\+//g')
word=$(echo $copyright|sed 's/(.\+//g')
if [ ! -n "$title" ];then
cninfo=$(echo $copyright|sed 's/，/"/g'|sed 's/,/"/g'|sed 's/(/"/g'|sed 's/ //g'|sed 's/\//_/g'|sed 's/)//g')
title=$(echo $cninfo|cut -d'"' -f1)
word=$(echo $cninfo|cut -d'"' -f2)
fi
sed -i s/login_background_customize=.*//g /etc/synoinfo.conf
echo "login_background_customize=\"yes\"">>/etc/synoinfo.conf
if (echo $savepath|grep -q '/') then
cp -f $tmpfile $savepath/$date@$title-"$word".jpg
fi
rm -rf /tmp/*_bing.jpg

Note: Before you paste the code above in the Run command area, add your personal path to wallpapers that you have created at STEP 2. For example, I have used my personal wallpaper path folder /volume1/web/wallpapers Change it according to your preferences. /path/toyour/wallpapers
