[pmwiki-users] Again: looking to add more randomness

First of all, thanks again for the help with monoskin setup.  Answered all 
my problems there :D

I do like some of mediawiki's features like monoskin, but I like PMwiki too 
and not really considering switching especially due to the number of 
articles already established.

Two features I wanted to add to make the wiki feel more dynamic and worth 
visiting on a regular basis was a Random Page function and a Did You Know 
list on the front page.

I've tried using the Random Page mod and markup, however you have to 
manually list all pages to include in the random selection, which in my case 
isn't practical.  It doesn't seem to accept wild cards unless I'm missing 
something here.  I'm hoping it does, anyone know?

As for the Did You Know function, I got about 50 DYKs listed, but the 
RandomQuote mod/markup can only use 1 at a time.  I'd love to have about 5 
or so listed.
