Arguments to the functions permit you to limit what file(s) can be randomly selected based on a given set of file extensions. You can also explicitly specify files that should not be randomly selected. This functionality can be useful for displaying random images/logos or including text from random files onto your site (writing excerpts, multi-line quotes, etc). Other ideas: random ads, random CSS files, random theme template selection. Notes: * If you want to actually display the name of the random file, be sure to ‘echo’ the results: * Unless you limit the file search to only include a particular extension (via ` $extensions` argument), all files in the specified `$dir` will be under consideration for random selection * Can be run inside or outside of “the loop” Links: [Plugin Homepage](https://coffee2code.com/wp-plugins/random-file/) | [Plugin Directory Page](https://wordpress.org/plugins/random-file/) | [GitHub](https://github.com/coffee2code/random-file/) | [Author Homepage](https://coffee2code.com) ### Developer Documentation Developer documentation can be found in [DEVELOPER-DOCS.md](https://github.com/coffee2code/random-file/blob/master/DEVELOPER-DOCS.md). That documentation covers the template tags and hooks provided by the plugin. As an overview, these are the template tags provided by the plugin: * `c2c_random_file()` : Retrieves the name of a random file from a specified directory and returns information based on the file. * `c2c_random_files()` : Retrieves the name, path, or link to a specified number of randomly chosen files in a specified directory. These are the hooks provided by the plugin: * `c2c_random_file` : Filter to safely invoke `c2c_random_file()` in such a way that if the plugin were deactivated or deleted, then your calls to the function won’t cause errors in your site. * `c2c_random_files` : Filter to safely invoke `c2c_random_files()` in such a way that if the plugin were deactivated or deleted, then your calls to the function won’t cause errors in your site. ## ইনষ্টলেশ্যন 1. Install via the built-in WordPress plugin installer. Or download and unzip `random- file.zip` inside the plugins directory for your site (typically `wp-content/plugins/`) 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ admin menu in WordPress 3. Make use of the `c2c_random_file()` or `c2c_random_files()` template function in your code or template (see examples below). ## সঘনাই উত্থাপিত প্ৰশ্ন ### Does this plugin do dynamic random rotation within a loaded page (i.e. randomly rotating images within a loaded page)? No. This plugin only selects a random file when the page is loaded. Once loaded, it does not currently add any dynamic functionality to automatically retrieve another random file on its own. ### Does this plugin include unit tests? Yes. The tests are not packaged in the release .zip file or included in plugins. svn.wordpress.org, but can be found in the [plugin’s GitHub repository](https://github.com/coffee2code/random-file/). ## পৰ্য্যালোচনা এই প্লাগিনৰ বাবে কোনো পৰ্য্যালোচনা নাই। ## অৱদানকাৰী আৰু বিকাশকাৰীসকল “Random File” হৈছে মুক্ত উৎসৰ ছফ্টৱেৰ। এইসকল লোকে এই প্লাগিনত অৱদান আগবঢ়াইছে। অৱদানকাৰীসকল * [ Scott Reilly ](https://profiles.wordpress.org/coffee2code/) [আপোনাৰ ভাষাত “Random File” অনুবাদ কৰক।](https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/random-file) ### বিকাশৰ প্ৰতি আগ্ৰহী?
