Hi there.

We've just launched an ecommerce website for a client. The client has products from many different suppliers. I want the products to come up in a random order (there can be 90+ products in a category - eg. 'home accessories'). However, when I set the 'associated products listing' to display random items, pagination disappears. I've set the module up to display 100 products at a time to get round this, but really, I only want to display 21 products on a page, with pagination, but in a random order. Is this possible?
Many thanks!
All the best - Leo

Hi,

That's not possible.
There is not really any meaning in displaying the next page since you will get products from the previous page on the next page and vice versa, so a user might not be able to see some products even thought he navigated all the pages of the pagination.
