You can easily change the latest or featured sidebox to be random. Just set it to the "home" position and follow this:

its there any way i can make latest product clone...and change it to another box to be random product...therefore.. at home front page... at the upper is latest product..and at the lower is random product... plz guide me..

Well since you are only using the latest and don't seem to be using the featured, then just use the featured like i explained in that link

oh..ok i got what u means.. under trying.. which one need to follow? the last at the tread?

There is a much better way I found using PHP instead of straining the database.

1. EDIT: catalog/controller/module/latest.php (or featured.php)

2. FIND:
$results = $this->model_catalog_product->getLatestProducts($this->config->get('latest_limit'));

3. AFTER, ADD:

Code: Select all
srand((float)microtime() * 1000000);
shuffle($results);


That's it! You can leave the model file alone.

i follow above with featured.php... but not meet on my expectation which i need random all product..but the result around a few product after refresh afew time ... any ways?
