7.3.9.5 Go To Random Note

As an extension to the original Markdown spec from John Gruber, a link to a random note may be generated by placing the literal {:random} on a line by itself, as in the following example:

{:random}

This command will generate HTML offering the user a chance to click on a link that will take them to another Note, chosen at random.

If the choice of a random destination is to be limited to Notes assigned certain Class values, then those values may be listed following the command itself, as in the following example:

{:random:idea}

If more than one class value should be eligible, then the eligible class values can be separated by commas, as in the following example:

{:random:idea,quote}

See the Random Page within the Knowledge Base for an example.
