There is no one-click way of achieving this.

There would be editing templates and php files.

Something like:

  • set the default album in gallery2/config.php
    $gallery->setConfig('defaultAlbumId', 30);// where 30 is the id of the album you want as default
  • then in your gallery2/themes/your theme/templates/local/theme.tpl template have a redirect to ?g2_view=dynamicalbum.RandomAlbum if in album 30:
    {if $theme.item.id == 30}
{php}header("Location: /gallery2/main.php?g2_view=dynamicalbum.RandomAlbum");{/php}
{/if}
