 * A web search for “Display Random Post WordPress” will turn up a lot of answers.
   There are several ways, plugins, code, themes.

 * Yeah, whatever. This is a fairly simple request; however, WP requires website
   owners to become programmers. I would think that there would be a button on the
   administrator’s panel that would allow this.

 * The plugins are absolutely useless and show basically only a title. I would like
   to show a random post. Not a random post title. There is a difference. Additionally,
   plugins only seem to operate in a sidebar where, I suppose, a random post title
   would be wanted.
