Random Posts Plugin
-
When a blog has a great deal of posts, readers don’t want and don’t have the time to go through all to possible 100+ posts written there in order to make an idea of the blog’s content.
Thus, a plugin that allows the reader to select a random post is necessary. He just clicks on a button and a random post is displayed.
Interesting, right ? It is useful for sure.
I’ve searched for a possibility to add such a plugin, but unfortunately uploading plugins is only available to wordpress.ORG (or so I understood).
I came about this widget at wordpress.org. Perhaps you could make us a little surprise gift by adding such a widget.
The widget is here for download:
Who’s in favor ?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Uh, that function has existed here for years. I use it on my own blog (click the 20-sided die in the sidebar).
The link you want to use is http://.http://pruncu.wordpress.com/?random

Put the text in a Text Widget (Dashboard >> Appearance >> Widgets)
I had to log out of this account an log back into another account where I use this on a a blog that is not linked to this account – so takes a few minutes to do all of that
Good luck

Since you are already helping me, I have one question for the both of you.
How can I make the posts appear only in a summary before they are clicked ?
I have the option checked at settings/reading/ “For each article in a feed, show”… I clicked on Summary, but it doesn’t work.
