 * Hi,
    I’ve written an SVG wrapper shortcode – it’s non-enclosing. The client now
   wants to display one of n SVGs at random. I’ve read the plugin description, and
   didn’t see it mentioned – does it support nesting another shortcode inside this
   one? cheers, Hugh

 * This question was based on a misunderstanding of how the plugin works – I thought
   it used multiple enclosing [random_content][/random_content] tags to define the
   content groups online on the page – understand now that it’s a CPT of its own
   with full editor (and shortcode) support. Worked a treat for my use case. Feel
   free to mark resolved.
