@Otto - Ian Stewart suggested asking you questions that might relate to the
Featured Themes ... I counted 15, just didn't know if that was all or if
that was all that were shown at one time as 15 is the number of themes
shown per page by default anywhere else.<br>
<br>
As to the random idea, perhaps I'm not explaining it clearly enough.<br>
<br>
Let's start with the above being a static quantity, that is _only_ 15
themes are shown on the Featured Theme page, not sure what would happen
if say 20 themes were set to be "sticky" ... and I would prefer not to
test it out.<br>
<br>
Can a portion of those themes, perhaps the last one to three themes be
randomly picked? Leave the the first set of themes as manually set to
"stick" to the front page, while the second set are randomly picked from
the repository and automatically set to "stick" ... or is this an all
or nothing affair which if that is the case we can keep going forward
with the manual method.<br>
<br>
Hopefully that is a little more clearer than mud.<br>
<br>

PS: What is the difference in the "sticky" links ... one reads "Stick
Topic" the other reads "to front"? The "to front" link has the extra
parameter &super=1 in it.

</div>I'm not sure I understand the question. The Featured Themes are all<br>
the themes listed under Featured Themes on<br>
<a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/" target="_blank">http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/</a>.<br>
<br>
Perhaps you may have been told it was choosing some random set of the<br>
featured themes to be displayed there. If that's the case, then I<br>
understand... but you have been misinformed. That's it. That's all of<br>
them. There are no more. It displays all the sticky themes there.<br>

</div>We can change it to display some kind of random selection instead, if<br>
desired. Currently it just displays them all.<br>
