    What is needed to make a featured post feed randomize between every post in a category?

    Hi There,

    Thanks for writing in! Regretfully this isn’t a feature offered by X. It could be possible with custom development, but this would be outside the scope of support we can offer. You may wish to consult a developer to assist you with this. X is quite extensible with child themes, so there are plenty of possibilities.

    Thanks for understanding.

    Hi There,

    Would you mind providing us with your website URL(your category pages) so we can take a closer look?

    Thank you.

    Hello There,

    Thanks for providing the url of your site. Are your referring to the post carousel or the post slider? Please keep in mind that you have an option to display the most commented, random and featured post in both the post carousel and in the post slider. You do not have to edit any files just to make it display random post. Please go to your customizer, Appearance > Customize > Ethos > Post Carousel or Appearance > Customize > Ethos > Post Slider – Blog or Appearance > Customize > Ethos > Post Slider – Archive and set the display to “random”.

    Hope this helps.

    Thanks for writing in! Regretfully, at this time I am not entirely certain what it is you would like to accomplish based on the information given in your post. If you wouldn’t mind providing us with a little more clarification and we’ll be happy to provide you with a response once we have a better understanding of the situation.

    Thanks

    Joao
