Randomise order of results

barrydiston

Hi,

Is it possible to have the results appear in a random order each time?

I saw a previous post on this and it was mentioned it could be possible via a customisation using a scipt to re-index the data periodically. Is this a customisation you may be able to provide for us ?

HI barrydiston

When you say random order each time, could you clarify 'each time' here? It's when you refresh the page or when you select another field to filter?

Some screenshots of how you want to achieve would be helpful here.

Hi,
You can use this file. Override it to components\com_jamegafilter\assets\js\megafilter.js

Each time the page is refreshed would be great, event greater would be when the field filter options are selected, that the ordering of the results could be different each time.

We are using the filter as a directory and would want to ensure that no particular listing is getting more exposure than the others. We would like to avoid results being listed alphabetically

Thanks
