Random Blog
-
What happen to the little arrow in the top right hand corner? You know the one that took you to a random blog. I liked that feature. Is it gone or can I look for it else where?
Thanks!The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

I just found mine on the left side next to “New Post”. Looks as if a few things have shifted around.
-
for me that says “random post” and that just takes me to a random post of the blog I am already on. The arrow was sort of like, I click it and it takes me to any random blog on wordpress.com and if I click it again it would take me to a dfifferent one, ect…. Now in the right hand side I have search wordpress.com blogs instead of the arrow.
-
Oh right… I know what you mean now. I like that feature too so hopefully someone will respond (correctly) to your query: )

Contact staff directly at http://support.wordpress.com/contact/ . With the redesign of the admin bar perhaps they just forgot to put it back in.

How exactly does one find a random blog now? The little arrow at the top only took you to the next blog, which isn’t random at all. I’d like to be able to just click on a button and a random blog appears.

I just found a way that you can get to a random blog.
Add a new link in your blogroll or whatever. The link is:
Every time you click on it, it will take you to a random blog!

Oh, excellent! I just dragged that link up to my FF bookmarks toolbar and it works quite well.
But, I’m with tsp-we should let Support know. Maybe they simply overlooked it.

Hi you all! because wordpress staff are the best when it comes to helping us out, they sent me their speedy reply to my contact.
Here it is:Hi,
We’re working on some updates to the admin bar and design of our site. Currently
the random blog arrow is gone, but look for it to come back as we roll out more
updates.—

oh and thanks heathers for posting that link that we can use until we get our nifty little arrow back.

Guys – Random Blog is in the Blog Info drop-down menu. It’s called Random Post, which amounts to the same thing – you still get taken to a random blog.

@ronsrealm-that will take you to a random post on the blog you are on, not a random blog.
@bats0711-glad to hear it’s being worked on.
(More site updates – #itmustbetheweekend)

@justjennifer and @bats0711 – Glad I could help! I discovered it quite by accident myself, so thought I’d share, as it was really annoying me that I couldn’t find a random blog. I think it should be fairly prominent, and not hidden away.
@ronsrealm – It’s not a random post in our own blog we’re looking for, which is what the Random Post feature did.
