Random Post Inserter

Skildring

Random Post Inserter is a simple yet powerful plugin that automatically adds random post links inside your blog posts. Designed with bloggers in mind, it helps keep your readers engaged by surfacing older or related content—without needing complex tags or categories.

Choose where the random post links appear:
– Beginning of the post
– Middle (after half of the paragraphs)
– End of the post

Features:

  • Insert random posts automatically
  • Choose number of posts to display
  • Customize the link text (e.g., “Read also”)
  • Choose placement: beginning, middle, or end
  • Option to open links in a new tab
  • Clean, no-frills settings interface

This plugin works best with standard WordPress posts and is fully compatible with most themes.

Can I control where the links appear?

Yes. You can choose to show the random post links at the beginning, middle, or end of your post content — or any combination of those.

Will it slow down my site?

No. The plugin uses optimized WordPress queries and is lightweight.

Does it work with custom post types?

Not currently. The plugin is intended for standard blog posts only.

Can I style the inserted links?

Yes! The links are wrapped in a <p class="rpi-link"> tag, so you can style them using CSS in your theme.
