Hello,

Is there a way to make the products component (from 8 theme) show products randomly?

For instance, I want to have 30 featured products and want to show 4 randomly in the home page. As it is at the moment it shows always the same 4.

If I use the woo commerce shortcode [featured_products per_page="4" columns="4" orderby="rand" order="rand"] it works fine but I lose the title (easy to do with header) and most important I lose the responsiveness (it shows 4 products, vertically one by one, on my smartphone, while it shows 2 in slider format when I use your component).

Is it possible to add the orderby=”rand” order=”rand” to your code, somehow?

Tanks in advance

José

Do you have it planned for future releases? The products slider without random or any other sort option is quite limited.

You can close this one.

In fact I was planning to put a question to Woo Commerce but as they don’t provide support for non paying members … is better to ask you here.

Is there any way to achieve my final result?

I would like to have 4 random sales products in the home page:

[sale_products per_page="4" orderby="rand" order="rand"]

But I would like to define number of items per display. Is it possible?

Thanks in advance

Hello,

Please try to use this shortcode [etheme_sale_products per_page="4" orderby="rand" order="rand"].

Thank you.

Hello Eva,

Unfortunately it doesn’t work. I’ve tried to add etheme_ to the shortcodes sales products per page and featured products per page and it didn’t work in both cases.
