also i'd recomment using a $var in the template as opposed to conditionals on the template level.

This is what I ended up doing:

- I used hook location "parse_templates" and used the following php code:
$random_number = rand(1, 8);
- I used the following syntax in the template "header"
<if condition="$random_number == 1">
code
</if>
