   Hi! I'm using this code to get one radom link from my posts:

   <?php
   $randomPost = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT guid FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_type = 'post' AND post_status = 'publish' ORDER BY rand() LIMIT 1");
   echo '<a href="'.$randomPost.'">Radom post</a>';
   ?>

   Buy, what can i edit to only get posts from category 21?

   Tnks!

   This should do the trick.

   <?php
   $args = array( 'numberposts' => 1, 'orderby' => 'rand', 'category' =>21 );
   $rand_posts = get_posts( $args );
   foreach( $rand_posts as $post ) : ?>
   <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
   <?php endforeach; ?>
