random displaying topics

<baris>

This plugin creates a new route at /random that displays random topics from the forum. In the admin page you can change the name of the route used and set a cutoff time so only newer topics are picked randomly.

for example, I have a category called xxx, which can be accessed by domain.com/category/2/algorithm, so I need to tell this plugin that

Route to show topics at eq: "featured" or "random-topics". No leading slash.
algorithm

Then, domain.com/category/2/algorithm will display topics randomly?

I tried. But domain.com/category/2/algorithm still display topics as set by users. For exmple Recently Replied

so only newer topics are picked randomly.

alright, let me try post a new topic.

um, it looks does not work as I expect..

No this plugin creates a new route at yourforum.com/random that display random topics from all categories. It doesn't modify how the existing category page works.

Nice. It works now.

display random topics from all categories.

I have a question. Is it possible to let it display randoms topics from a certain category, or a certain tag?

The plugin supports showing topics from a category, you can use /random?cid=1 to only display from category id 1.

I did it like this:

Route to show topics at eq: "featured" or "random-topics". No leading slash.
random?cid=6

both the following does not work: yourforum.com/random?cid=6 or yourforum.com/random ...

Try cid[]=6 I will make a fix so cid=6 works too.

Thanks bro. I tried this:

Route to show topics at eq: "featured" or "random-topics". No leading slash.
random?cid[]=6

Then rebuild and restart.
both the following do not work either: yourforum.com/random?cid[]6 or yourforum.com/random ...

I am using 3.7.4.

You are missing a = in your url should be ourforum.com/random?cid[]=6.
