Is there any documentation? I cannot figure out how to specify the database table, column etc.

I get no results.

Thank you, I am still not working.

Mode = Random

Database Table = content

Columns Name = title

Conditions/Display none set

Pre Text = Hello

Post Text = Goodbye

When I view the module output I see HelloGoodbye. I was expecting to see a random article title between the Hello and Goodbye. What I am I doing wrong please?

Also, I am struggling with only being able to use AND with the conditions. I wish to display content randomly from articles in either category 24 or category 26. These are both sub-categories of category 96. If I specify category 96 will it pick up the sub-categories? If not, is there any way to specify category 24 OR category 26, please?

Hello

You have to add display to show the title.

Example:

  • HTML Tag - div
  • Column - title

You may also add any CSS class to style the element.

For including articles from multiple categories, we are updating the module for this. We will release a new version in couple of days.

Thank you
