Here’s what I’m trying to do:

I have a site that lists out a series of entries (businesses), every 8th entry or so I want to randomly display an entry from another channel (an ad).

{exp:channel:entries channel="businesses" orderby="title" sort="asc" limit="250" cache="yes" refresh="60"}
     <li>
          <div class="bus-desc">
                     <h4>{title}</h4>
<p>                    {businesses_summary}<br />
          </div><br />
    </li><br />
   {exp:random_number min="1" max="8"}<br />
       {if random_number_0 == 8}<br />
            {embed="layout/ads"}<br />
       {/if}<br />
    {/exp:random_number}<br />
{/exp:channel:entries}

The problem, is that instead of rerunning the channel entries query in {embed="layout/ads"} it just keeps posting the same result. I need a different result for every random 8th entry.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

The http://devot-ee.com/add-ons/hop-inject addon was made to do something very similar, http://ee-garage.com/nsm-transplant may be worth looking at as well.

Thanks you so much. Totally did the trick!

Excellent - glad you found a way forward!
