hi!

i have added this code in product info.liquid file "

:eyes: {{ 5 | plus: random | times: 4 }} people are currently viewing this product

".

I wanted it to display a random number each time the page refreshes but shopify just ignores the random filter and displays 20 by multiplying 4 and 5 on every product page.

here is the URL if you want to see:https://planetjunior.pk/products/educational-talking-e-book

please help why shopify isn’t recognizing the random filter and always displaying 20

You can do it like this

{% assign min = 1 %}
{% assign max = 100 %}
{% assign diff = max | minus: min %}
{% assign randomNumber = "now" | date: "%N" | modulo: diff | plus: min %}

👀 {{ randomNumber  }} people are currently viewing this product

Thanks!
