Splitted upon Minesh request (he already has access to my site) from
https://toolset.com/forums/topic/adding-outpts-from-two-views/page/2/#post-2699817

Selecting Ordering/Random in Content Selection works, but sometimes some posts are not shown, you need to reload the page to randomize again and possibly fix. I suppose there might be a bug in the randomization algorithm that excludes some posts instead of just sorting ALL of them randomly.
Thanks

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

There is no bug in random algorithm as order by rand is performed by database.

To ensure there is no conflict with the theme or plugin you are using:
Could you please try to resolve your issue by deactivating all third-party plugins as well as the default theme to check for any possible conflicts with any of the plugins or themes?
- Do you see any difference.

The issue wasn't in the randomization algorithm
