Radom Imagine for WP

[Michael]

Hey, is there a random image addon for wordpress? Thanks.

Errr wordpress, not one tuned for it. But if you check out my site, the banners are picked randomly everytime. Is that what you mean?

Otherwise there's a display random image addon in the addon section of the pixelpost website.

use this addon:

PHP Code:

<?php

// use http://www.yourphotoblogaddress.com/index.php?random=image as the link to a random page on your photoblog
 if ($_GET['random']=='image')
 {
     $id= mysql_query("select DISTINCT id from 
     ".$pixelpost_db_prefix."pixelpost
     order by rand() limit 0,1");
     while(list($id) = mysql_fetch_row($id)) {
     header("Location: index.php?showimage=".$id);
     //exit;
     }
 }
?>

0) Copy this addon to the addons
folder
1) use http://www.yourphotoblogaddress.com/index.php?random=image as the
link to a random page on your photoblog in any page on the net!

@Michael,
Please, post your modified addon to the forum to let other people have it.

Is there a way to implement the random thumbnail along with that as well?

That site didn't work. Ya, I'm looking for that addon thats on your site. But I thought the one you have now doesn't work with wordpress. Thats what I'm really looking for, thanks.

I feel like an idiot, but I really can't get it to work. I edited all the things that it said to, but still nothing. When I place the code in my sidebar it does absolutely nothing. Not sure what the problem is, I'm using pixepost 1.4.2, so I downloaded the top one. I wish it'd work.

Any ideas?
