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'
