 * Good morning,
 * I wanted a random order for my carousel, but I noticed something odd. I noticed
   that for some reason, on mobile phones, the carousel is stuck on the same random
   order for all of my users (instead of having a different order at every connection).
 * On a computer, it does re-generate the post order every time I refresh the page,
   but sometimes it gets stuck on the very same random order for all of my users
   again.
 * I expected the post order to be different at every connection on the page. Is
   there something I’m missing?
 * Thanks so much for your help with this.
