<p>This plugin allows you to display random content anywhere on your site using a shortcode or widget. You can group your random content together, allowing you to display different content in multiple locations throughout your site.</p>
<p>The content is added via a custom post type, so you have full access to the tinyMCE editor. This allows you to easily add images, text, and links to your random content.</p>
<h4>Using a widget</h4>
<ol>
<li>Navigate to Appearance->Widgets and add the Random Content widget to a sidebar.</li>
<li>Select a group from the dropdown. If you don’t create a group, the widget will use all entries.</li>
</ol>
<h4>Using a shortcode</h4>
<p>Place the shortcode <code>[random_content]</code> anywhere on a post or page.</p>
<p>To choose entries from a specific group, add the <code>group_id</code> parameter. For example, <code>[random_content group_id="64"]</code>.</p>
<p>To specify the number of posts to show, add the <code>num_posts</code> parameter. For example, <code>[random_content group_id="13" num_posts="3"]</code>.</p>

<p>RandomText is a handy WordPress plugin that allows you to save, edit and delete categorized text, and inject random/rotated text by category into the sidebar (via widget) or page body (via template tags). The sidebar widget allows you to set an optional Title, and text header and footer. You could say RandomText picks up where the Text widget left off. Whether you want to display random/rotated trivia, quotes, helpful hints, featured articles, or snippets of html, you can do it all easily with RandomText.</p>
