Hello,

I know it is possible to randomize articles in each module, as shown here:

ERMC

"Randomizing" is very useful to give a site a fresh look every time a visitor comes or revisits -- when articles are not added regularly. Also, "Randomizing" allows older articles to be presented.

The above ERMC is for News Joomla v2.5.x

I want to do the same (i.e., "Randomize articles in a module") for the Joomla version 3.x of News, see below

Kalikasan Philippines (News Joomla Version 3.x)

I have not found any Randomize script (after searching the forum for Randomize".

Hi,
all you have to do is use news module which has option to show randomized articles/k2 items - no problem to find such a on JED.

Don't forget that this forum is not The Joomla! Extensions Directory (JED), so you can not find descriptions of extensions here or ready JS scripts etc. I hope that you understand. :mrgreen:
Also we don't help in JS modifications which are customized jobs not support anymore.

Yes thank you Oscar, I found that out myself after more careful look at some of the features of the News module.

Randomization slows the site though, so I have to find a balance.

Sorry for the long delay in responding. I have been away from the US for six months and have been quite busy after I came back, still catching up.

In JED you can check those:
- Article Randomness
- Random Article
or similar with "random" name/title or this word used in their description.
BTW also ROKSPROCKET have random feature.
