Tell us what you are trying to do?
So I have a "thumbnail" image field for a CPT. If the user doesn't add an image, the thumbnail will be blank. What I am looking to do is to say If the Thumbnail is blank, then grab a random image from .../my-folder/ - is there a way to do this? Maybe a shortcode or something? Or is this built-in?

Is there any documentation that you are following?

Is there a similar example that we can see?

What is the link to your site?

Dear Chris,

There isn't such a built-in feature within Toolset plugin, you can create a custom shortcode for it, for example:
1) Use shortcode [wpv-conditional] to check if the "thumbnail" image field is empty,
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/conditional-html-output-in-views/
then display below shortcode
2) Create shortcode to output a random image from .../my-folder/
