Hi Squarespace builders! 

I have an odd problem. I'm trying to randomize content  on a blog. So that the thumbnail posts are displayed in a random order every time the site loads. Is this possible? 

To give context to what I'm doing (perhaps there's a better way) – I have a list of association members for my local accommodations  website. They each have "more info"... so some text and a slideshow of images. On the main blog page I'm just displaying a thumbnail link and their name. They each want a turn near the top of the page from time to time. So I need to figure out how to randomize the posts. I also have a "featured member" area on my homepage which would feature 6 members and change from time to time. 

I tried setting them up as a portfolio, but realized that 7.1 doesn't support tagging or categorizing portfolio items! UGH! Anyone else want this feature back?! 

Does anyone have some code that would work for this that I could place in the blog header? Thanks in advance for anyone willing to help me! 

Warmly,

AK
