  • In [the page](https://meta.codidact.com/ca), there's a ad type which is "Random from category". The image link look like this :
  • >https://meta.codidact.com/ca/category/X.png<br/>
  • Replace X with the category ID
  • Category ID of Q&A in Codidact meta is 3. So, the link look like this
  • >https://meta.codidact.com/ca/category/3.png
  • The title of the ad is saying random from category but, when I visit above link than I just can see newest question (Even, after asking the question I just can see the following picture).
  • ![ad](https://meta.codidact.com/uploads/dXyDvdQ2tnXRwuSgeMFSRSMJ)
  • I think it is just show hot post not random post.
  • The feature maybe this. But, according to [the comment](https://meta.codidact.com/posts/279984#comment-7774) there's some bug. That's why I am marking it as bug.
