    Hi, I would like to get the widget title to be a link to the main category page. Any ideas on how I can do this?

    Also, I have the widget set to randomize, but nothing is changing. The list is no longer alphabetical, but on refresh there is no change of entries. Any ideas on why?

    Thank you!

    never mind, figured out title link. Rotate is happening, though is there a way for it to rotate through on refresh? Seems like it takes a while…

    Thanks again.

    @ Michelle

    What was the solution you found for the title link? As for randomization…

    Randomization occurs every hour on the hour (according to the time set on the server, not necessarily the time on your clock) for every user based on IP address. As an example, lets say user A and user B both visit the site at the same time, they would both see the entries in a different random order for the remainder of the hour in which they visited. After that remainder of the hour has expired, they would both see a different random order.

    There is no way to change this behavior for the widget. This is in place to support pagination of a randomized list. I know pagination does not apply to the widget, but the same code is used for the list as the widget.

    Hope this helps!

    Hi, I used the plugin “HTML Widget Text”, which allows for URLs in a widget title. I looked into adding to functions, but looking at what needed to be added, my eyes started glazing over…
