Multiple Random Images on same page

[AndersonMM]

I'm trying to put 3 different random images on the same page. In my template, I just put:

PHP Code:

<?php random_content('Square-Images'); ?>
<?php random_content('Square-Images'); ?>
<?php random_content('Square-Images'); ?>

But this causes occasional duplicate images. Is there a way to achieve this so there are 3 unique random images on the page every time?

Thank you.

use an array and randomize the array

I suppose AndersonMM is using the Random Content plugin.
If so, function random_content displays the output but doesn't return it, therefore it should be patched, or create a new modified one.

In this case, a randomized array using random_content  would not help me?

You could use object buffering into an array and remove duplicates then randomize output.

Of course like I said
Getfiles() and array random is better

shawn_a would you possibly be able to provide me a bit more of a snippet/example to get me going with that? Thank you for the Saturday support
