Great plugin!

Question, I’m using the [site_reviews assigned_posts=”post_id”] for different pages which work great. Any idea how I can pull random reviews from all these pages into a shortcode on my main page?

Random reviews are great in theory, but since PHP is a server-side language (not client-side like javascript) any caching you do on your website to speed it up will make the randomness no longer work.

This is why Site Reviews does not provide a “Random” option.

If you are convinced that you still want this, you could use the provided glsr_get_reviews() function which does support random sorting. However, some caching plugins also cache SQL queries, which again will invalidate the random sorting.
