    Hello, is it possible to make the display of the widget of similar products random, that is, in different categories, for example, the widget shows different products in the sidebar? The output widget has the ability to display a random order, but the order itself will be the same everywhere.

    Hello,

    Appearance > Widgets > Shop or single product sidebar > add Products widget > https://prnt.sc/vwq3hi
    If you are talking about Related and Upp-sells products, there is no such possibility.

    Yes, we have done this, but everywhere (categories, products) the same is shown, I assumed that it is random, which means they will change. The order is the same everywhere (Screnshot)

    We have the latest products added to the site, as far as I understand, and not randomly, although the setting is necessary.

    Maybe this is due to caching? We will prepare the data and discard it, but is it possible to display the Related Product in the categories below?

    Hello,

    Related Products is a section on some templates that pulls products from your store that share the same tags or categories as the current product.
    These products cannot be specified in the admin, but can be influenced by grouping similar products in the same category or by using the same tags.

    I meant something else, is it possible to display this block in categories too, and not just in products. We are looking for a way to uniqueize category pages simply, if this is not possible, then we will give access and try to fix the widget in the sidebar.

    No, related products can be displayed on single product page only.

    Hello, we had a problem with the widgets, they were not displayed in random order, the last ones are shown .. Update theme or WordPress cannot create a theme too: https://www.8theme.com/topic/theme-update-wordpress/, maybe the error would be corrected itself.

    Hello,

    Problem caused by Post Types Order plugin. Once plugin is disabled widget works fine. It looks that they overwrite queries. Contact plugin author to fix the issue to avoid affections of the products widget displaying.
