-====== How to disable character replacement ======
+====== How to link to a random entry ======
-===== Default behaviour =====
+You may wish to serve your blog visitors a link to a random entry in your blog. To achieve this, just append ''?random'' to your site URL.
-By default, FlatPress replaces some characters (or character combinations) within your entries and static pages:
-  * Two hyphens ("<nowiki>--</nowiki>") become an [[https://www.thepunctuationguide.com/en-dash.html|en dash]] ("–"), three ("<nowiki>---</nowiki>") an [[https://www.thepunctuationguide.com/em-dash.html|em dash]] ("—")
-  * Three dots ("<nowiki>...</nowiki>") become an [[https://www.thepunctuationguide.com/ellipses.html|ellipsis]] ("…")
-  * Quotations marks become typographic: <nowiki>"text"</nowiki> will become “text”
-  * Trademark sign: "Text <nowiki>(tm)</nowiki>" is being replaced with "Text ™"
-  * Multiplication sign: "<nowiki>2x3</nowiki>" is displayed as "2×3"
-... and a few more.
-===== How to disable =====
+===== Example =====
-If you would like FlatPress __not__ to do these character replacements, just tell it to :)
+Link to a random entry on flatpress.org: https://www.flatpress.org/?random\\
+(Try and reload! You will be served another random entry each time.)
-After the first two lines of your index.php, just add the ''remove_filter()'' call as shown:
-<code><?php
-include 'defaults.php';
-include INCLUDES_DIR . 'includes.php';
-// ADD THIS LINE:
-remove_filter('the_content', 'wptexturize');
-define('MOD_INDEX', 1);
-...</code>
-===== More details =====
-The described replacements take place in the function ''wptexturize()'' in //fp-includes/core/core.wp-formatting.php//. Please refer there for a detailled view into the replacement logic.
