Reviews
Random is almost exactly what I need. I can make it work by using page or post IDs but it’s pretty laborious. Load content by category or tag would be a really useful additional feature.

This plugin give to your website the possibility to get random content for specific posts types. You can use to give to your visitors random posts, or random woocommerce products for your clients.
Very useful in my opinion.
