Add support for multi-displays
I don’t have a problem with it working on two screens at once. Is the issue still there? First screen is the Retina build-in of a Macbook Pro 14, second screen is a regular FullHD connected via a USB-C to HDMI adapter.

@jaller94 I think what this could mean, ie what I want, is a separate web page on each monitor. Now one of my URLs is google trends, and I get isolated content on each page, but I'd rather have a separate page on each monitor. Think multiple dashboards for each service.
One way to achieve this if you don't control the content is the following:
Create a file on your local harddrive, e.g. /Users/metoo/workspace/random.html
put this in it: (nb: adapted from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/40456048/random-html-page-redirect)
<html><body>
<script>
// get a random number between 0 and 2
//
//var randNum = Math.floor(Math.random() * 3);
// An array of URL's
var randURLs = [
"https://randomstreetview.com/#slideshow",
"http://www.google.com/trends/hottrends/visualize?pn=p1"
];
// There was a 1 in 500 chance we generated a zero.
// if (randNum == 0) {
// randURLs.length will tell us how many elements are
// in the randURLs array - we can use this to generate
// a random number between 0 and n (number of elements)
//
// In our case there are 3 elements in the array, 0, 1
// and 2. So we want to get another random number in
// the inclusive range 0 - 2
//
var randURL = Math.floor(Math.random() * randURLs.length);
window.open(randURLs[randURL], "_self");
// }
</script>
</body></html>
Then set your URL in webviewscreensaver to file:///Users/metoo/workspace/random.html
Done.
Harder Workaround (not simple, not tested - yet): Use the RandomExtra screensaver plus modify the webviewscreensaver source and build it to multiple unique IDs which could be selected per monitor.
