Post filter with random sort

    Hi,

    First of all: thank you for this awesome plugin! We hope you could help us learn how to use this.

    We have started a new website, with 3 posts to test, the classic widget + classic editor plugin and your amazing plugin set up.

    We have a page with the shortcode [pgaf_post_filter grid="3" order="Rand" show_author="false" show_date="false"]

    The documentation shows the option for posts to order random. But if we refresh the page the order of our posts is the same, every refresh or hard refresh it stays the same.

    Did we maybe mess up the code or can you give another tip?

    Also for desktop with Twenty Twenty-One theme active, the div pgafu-filter-wrp is never wider than 600px. Is there a setting somewhere to make it wider for desktop on full screen browsers maybe? We don’t have a sidebar so there is a lot of whitespace left and right.

    Thank you very much for your help

    Hi,

    This works, awesome! Thank you so much for the quick reply and the help.

    I hope you don’t mind me asking, is it also possible to have an anchor-tag that is inside the post, to be clickable when you are on the filter-page?

    So we have the homepage set up with all the latest posts and we use a filter to sort these.

    So we have a post with inside the content field something like:
    <p>This is my favorite colour </p> <a href="https://www.hm.com">Mauve</a>

    We would like to have the anchor with “mauve” to be clickable from the filter-view. So without users first opening the post-detail page.

    Thank you for your reply.

    Hi,

    We have a post, in the backend we provided an anchor to link visitors to a specific page, outside our wordpress-site.

    If we open the homepage, where we placed the filter and display our posts, the link-text will show, but the link can not be clicked to view the anchor-link. You only see the anchor-text.

    I hope this helps to clarify, but please let us know
