CMS custom component, have shown before, but extra functions
ok I have only 3 images setup you can add more
This randomly selects an image, the relative link, text color and the link text
Highlight a different product or page as you land on the page, every refresh or visit
Elements CMS is really cool

Basically, it would be really nice to have a “random item” function in the CMS and in the related item.
Adding whitelist and blacklist filters for the tags would make the whole thing ideal.

@ben
I think I mentioned this topic before. It’s already on your to-do list, right?
Could you maybe “accidentally” move it a bit higher up the priority list?
That would also be worth something to me as a paid Pro feature.

ok another take the array can contain different titles / data, not have data and have data, also editing in ftp - have been editing already, just update a spelling mistake. I would just download the md file and put into the project to keep synced

Really cool stuff. I just need more hours in the day to really spend some proper time digging into it.

I started here, control flow and conditionals, then followed the links to the twig site, takes longer to create the tailwind code to define the layout than set the twig up
