WordPress: Display 3 Random Images Attached to a Different Page

[TheDoc]

Question is in the title! For the life of me I cannot figure this out.

On a page (not post) I want to include three thumbnails from a gallery that is on another page (not post), but I can’t see how to do it.

I feel like I’m sort of on the right path with this, but I really have no idea where to begin.

My only gripe with WordPress, their silly media/asset management.

Try the following link:

Though it has post to post/page you can edit the code so it references from another pageID instead of a postID.

Hope that helps!

Actually got it solved with this:

$args = array( 'post_type' => 'attachment', 'numberposts' => 3, 'orderby' => 'rand', 'post_status' => null, 'post_parent' => 12 );

$attachments = get_posts( $args );

if ($attachments) {

foreach ( $attachments as $post ) {

setup_postdata($post);

the_attachment_link($post->ID, false);

}

}

?>

Love figuring things out!
