 * I have a wordpress website running 3.8.1 with WPML 2.8.2 and I need to show 3
   random posts on the homepage.
 * I use the shortcode [ic_add_posts post_type=”feedback” random=”3″ template=”template-
   tsp-feedback-homepage.php”]
 * Only one post is shown in italian while the three posts are correctly shown in
   english.
 * If I remove “random” all posts are shown in both languages without problems.
 * Any idea what it could be?

 * I forgot to add that if I use showposts=’3′ instead of random=’3′, it works.

 * I found out that the key “random” was a customization of the plugin.
