## Descrizione

Hot Random Image by [Hot Themes](https://www.hotjoomlatemplates.com/) is a basic
plugin that shows a randomly picked image from a selected folder where images are
stored. You can define a folder and the plugin will show all the images from this
folder in a random order. Also, it’s possible to select only certain images from
the folder that will be added in rotation. Each image can be linked. Alt text is
optional. Image dimensions (width and height) can be defined in any format (pixels,
percents, auto-mode…). Therefore, this plugin is appropriate for all responsive 
websites.

If you need to insert a random image, it’s a very interesting little plugin. The
features are quite handy too. And it works without problem.

The plugin works perfectly as it should.It would be nice to be able to display randomly
several images.I can do it by using several times the widget, but then the same 
image may be displayed more than once.

Worked for me. I used this to create an advertisement banner in the footer section.
Each time when you refresh the page, you will get a new image.
