Random Post Draw Issue

Recommended Posts

I've tried clearing the cache, eliminating the cache, bringing it up on multiple browsers, etc. I agree, a theme update shouldn't affect it. All I know for sure is that it was working, then I updated, then it wasn't working, and I had not changed anything at all between when it was working and when it wasn't working. I'm honestly at a complete loss to explain why it is no longer working. Currently, it is pulling the last (most recent) post, rather than pulling a random post. The way it was working is that every page refresh, it would randomize a post from the category. Basically, every time somebody comes to the home page, they see new content. I really have no idea why it isn't working now.

Okay, so I still have no idea why it broke, however, I did figure out how to get it to work... sort of. I tried disabling the post types order plugin, and the randomization of the post draw started working again. Unfortunately, this means I can either have a random post draw, or put other posts in the site in order, but not both. Like I said before, the strange thing is, it worked fine until I upgraded, and then stopped working. But, at least I figured out how to get the random post draw working again, even if it makes something else stop working properly. Ugh.
