Randomizing Custom Content
12 September 2008 at 9:24pm
Hi Guys
I had a look at some of the posts on random content but nothing really answers what I would like to do.
I created 4 new fields in the db and cms for my HomePage.php page model. Showcase1-4. I have added content to Showcase1-4 and call them as $Showcase1, $Showcase2 in my view. I would like to randomize the actual content being shown ie only one showcase between $Showcase1 and $Showcase4 should be shown at any one time.
Is this possible?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

In your home page controller:
function randShowcase() {
$random = rand(1, 4);
$field = 'Showcase'.$random;
return $this->$field;
}so in your template you can call $randShowcase
