Randomize this call a bit...
Using Jamroom
I have the below call which returns featured artists. What I would like to change is that when the page displays, it does not seem to ever change. I also want to randomize the songs. If I bring the page up on a different browser, I may see different artists but again, if I come back eight hours later and refresh the page, I get the same info. When I added order_by="random" on index_item_2.tpl, it caused an issue and asked me to check the config values. I also added the cached_seconds value to override system cache.
Any suggestions on how to achieve this?
{if strlen($_conf.MixAP_list_2_ids) > 0}
{jrCore_list module="jrProfile" cache_seconds="120" search1="profile_quota_id in 8,9,16,21,22,23,29" limit="7" template="index_item_2.tpl"}
{else}
{jrCore_list module="jrProfile" cache_seconds="120" order_by="profile_jrAudio_item_count numerical_desc" limit="7" template="index_item_2.tpl"}
{/if}
