I’ve created a carousel with random order and have inserted the widget via shortcode in the sidebar. If i view multiple posts at the same time, it appears they all display and go through the same posts in the same order rather than displaying random posts. And for every post I visit, they all start the same and go through the same order. There doesn’t seem to be any thing random about the display. Does the Random order not work? The page I need help with: [ log in to see the link] Hello @skigirl1369 Do you have caching on your site, or does wpengine include caching whether you know about it or not? If the pages are cached by the server, then the random results would appear in the same order until the cache is cleared. This is not something that I can fix, since it’s not broken. I would contact wpengine if you’re not sure about the caching.
