Something else, with the magic words, is it possible to have one so it can
display a random number of links from a chosen category?
As #category1# and #category2# appear to just show the most viewed pages in
that category... having
#categoryrandom-<categoryname/id># and it displays (for example) the top 6
links.
Maybe have it work on the first 2 are cycled between the top 10 viewed
articles, and the following 4 are purely random.
If that's not possible, then just have it as purely random then.
And Timothy, your example you showed with {{FULLPAGENAME}} will make the
initial link (IE: Top Content) not clickable??
