Re: Displaying random article(s) from more than one section?
<txp:article_custom section="section1,section2,section7" sort="rand()" limit="1" />. If you want articles from all sections leave out the section attribute. Change the limit attribute to how many articles you want to display.
Or did you mean one random article from each section?

Thanks, this is exactly what I need. I just didn’t realize that I could put more than one section in txp:article tag.
