By default, the original Random Number Generator plugin short code works within widgets, posts, and pages. We have extended the core capability of the plugin so that it also works within text/html fields, such as those used for advertising purposes.
One primary use: It can be used to defeat browser caching by inserting a random number. The most common implementation of this is within Google DoubleClick ads where they require an 『ord=』 within the script to ensure that ad creative is not cached by the browers.
Use Example 1:
input: http://my_url?ord=[random-number]」
output: http://my_url?ord=134548.
Use Example 2:
input: [random-number from=」2″ to=」72″ format=」%b」]%d minutes[/random-number]
output: an integer value between 2 & 72 followed by the word 『minutes』
