XF 2.2 Any way to have user directed to random post in a thread?

[churningwallet]

Is there any way to have user directed to random post when they click a thread? Or to feature a random post in all threads in a forum at the top of each thread?

You can link to specific posts using the post number link found at the top right corner of a given post.

Thank you for the response. I understand that. Just don't know how to get a random link in a thread. Even if I could write bbcode to randomly select a number, the post numbers aren't in consecutive order within a thread.

Any other ideas or maybe there is an add-on?

XF template syntax has a random number generator. Might be able to get creative.

XF 2.1 Thread 'Is there any template syntax for outputting a random number?'

Dec 28, 2020

I have a number of background images that I'd like to randomly select from. Is there a way to output a random number between certain values using template syntax?
