Hello, is there a way to make the website show random post every time the users open it?

Hi,

Due nature of the static websites it is not possible to achieve in the output HTML. The only solution can be creating JSON object with posts to load and then display them randomly, but as I suppose it won’t work for the search engine crawlers as it will be a content dynamically generated by JS script.

Is there any way to show randomly @config.custom.uploadImage1 or @config.custom.uploadImage2 on a div?

My code is:

—————–
<div id=”bannersLPost” class=”bannersLPost”>
<figure>
<img
class=”lazyload”
{{#checkIf @config.custom.lazyLoadEffect ‘!==’ “lqip” }}
src=”{{@config.custom.uploadBanner1}}”
{{else}}
data-src=”{{@config.custom.uploadBanner1}}”
{{/checkIf}}
{{responsiveSrcSet @config.custom.uploadBanner1}}
{{responsiveSizes}}>
</figure></div>

———-

I have @ config.custom.uploadBanner1 and @ config.custom.uploadBanner2 … I want to show randomly banner1 or banner2.

How could i achieve that?

Thanks a lot in advanced.

Did you ever figure this out? Somebody else had the same question: https://forum.getpublii.com/topic/show-random-posts/

I am the questioner from the other post.

In my case I don’t need random posts on every reload. I want random posts on export/update of the web page. Ideally, I could randomize the array with a helper function. It would be even better if there was a parameter for this in Publii. Is basically only 10 lines of code 😉
