An easy to use WordPress function to add random posts to any theme.
Insert the following code into your WordPress theme files:
Without passing any parameters, the plugin will return ten results or fewer depending on how many posts you have.
thisismyurl_easy_random_posts('count=10');
By default the plugin wraps your code in list item (<li>) tags but you can specify how to format the results using the following code:
thisismyurl_easy_random_posts('before=<p>&after=</p>');
You can now change the order of the results using ASC, DESC or RAND to return the results in ascending, descending or random order of date published.
thisismyurl_easy_random_posts('order=ASC;');
You can set if the link is displayed as a nofollow link for SEO optimization using the new nofollow option.
thisismyurl_easy_random_posts('nofollow=true;');
Finally, if you'd like to copy the results into a variable you can return the results as follows:
thisismyurl_easy_random_posts('show=false');
