Increase user engagement by showcasing a unique post each day on your WordPress site. This PHP snippet ensures that visitors see a different post daily, refreshing at midnight. The code takes advantage of the PHP rand()/mt_rand() function not being random when seeded with the same data. This approach is ideal for highlighting older content, increasing page views, and keeping your site dynamic without the need for additional plugins. This snippet is compatible with custom post types and the output can be customized to fit any theme or layout.
