    Does anybody know why I am getting 15 members at the alphabetical members loop filter and just 6 with the random?
    I followed this instruction here:
    https://codex.buddypress.org/plugindev/add-custom-filters-to-loops-and-enjoy-them-within-your-plugin/
    and implemented the plugin. Now it shows the random at the dropdown. But when I click on it, not all members are shown.
    I switched off child theme and all other plugins, use twenty theme with no result.

    Doesn’t random mean, take ALL members and just display them in a random order instead of alphabetical?

    What limits the members in random order? Thanks for any help!

    I found out whats up by myself. Each user must be once logged in before beeing on the random list. No docs about, poor.

    Hi Josh,
    The users need to have a last activity time set in order to appear in members directory. That’s why this happened.
