=== Random One Cat Widget === Contributors: Fecundvs Tags: widget, random, post, random post, sidebar Requires at least: 2.5 Tested up to: 3.0 Stable tag: 1.2 This Widget shows a single random post from a given category. == Description == There are times when you'd like to have a certain type of post appear in a widget for use in your sidebar or (in some themes) your header or footer. I use this to display a random senryu on each page, but it will work equally well for any group of reasonably small posts. There is the option to include the title of the post or (like I do) not. If you want you can add a bunch of widgets, each showing a random post from a different category. == Installation == Installing is pretty easy takes only a few minutes. 1. Upload 'random-one-cat-widget.php' to your '/wp-content/plugins/' directory. 2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' screen in WordPress. 3. On the 'widgets' sub-menu of 'Design' you will find a new widget type 'Random One Cat' 4. Add one or more of these to your display and select a title and category. Decide if you'd like to see the post title or custom fields. Save your settings. 5. You're done.
