    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; ?>
