 * Is there a way to tell the gallery to display the images randomly as people bring
   up or refresh the page? Is there any CSS code that would a person could add to
   the block to do that? If not, could that be added in an update?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Frandom-display-4%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi [@shanezep](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shanezep/), totally missed
   this!
 * Although that’s an interesting idea, there is not a way to do that via CSS – 
   and honestly it’s not an entirely performant. Having the masonry load images 
   in different capacities on page load would make it not possible for the pages
   to be properly cached – therefore slowing down a visitor’s experience while checking
   out your website/galleries. Does that make sense?
