[pmwiki-users] Again: looking to add more randomness

[Comit]

Well, here's the Random Page mod:
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/RandomPage

It's almost there.  But as you can see you have to type in all the pages to 
include.
In the example its:

(:randpage Banners/Banner1 Banners/Banner2 Banners/Banner3 MyBanner/Thing:)

Would be perfect if you could just do:

(:randpage Banners/*) meaning to include all pages.

Then I could just add a link to the nav bar which takes you to a page that 
has nothing more than(:randpage Group/*), and viola, a random page.

As for the 'Did You Know', which is a higher priority at the moment (I guess 
I should note that the wiki is used for a game me and my friends make, and 
that the wiki plays a role in it). RandomQuote is perfect for displaying 
*one* DYK.
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/RandomQuote

But only one, as you can see on my wiki.  Adding the markup additional times 
doesn't work.  Here's a mediawiki page belonging to a friend of mine - 
http://wiki.kenbro.net.  If I understand the randomized 'Did You Know' 
function is a popular mediawiki feature, but I'm struggling to find a way to 
find a way to emulate that on pmwiki.
