How can I randomize search results in Views? It seems like the simple answer to this issue would be to select Global:Random from the Sort Criteria, but choosing this results in a selection of Global: Random (asc) -- the asc being ascending.  

And indeed the results are displayed as ascending instead of random. 

How can this be corrected?
Results are displaying in ascending order because you may have another sort criteria present above Global: Random (asc) like say Content: Post date (desc).

Solution: Move Global: Random (asc) sort criteria to top. Surely it will work.


  Note: If you have more than one sort criteria lets say 3, then results
  first get sorted with first criteria then with second and then with
  third.
