Lines 149-157. Though I tested it out and it doesn't seem to work.</p> <p>I'll tag Kriesi and Peter on this post and see if they have an additional thought on what it might take to get it to work as I wasn't able to get it working in my testing.</p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Devin </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/random-background-galleries#post-78860 Sun, 07 Oct 2012 19:48:41 +0000 dishdesigner 78860@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi:</p> <p>I noticed that the thread located at: <a href="http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/default-background-image-gallery-random" rel="nofollow">http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/default-background-image-gallery-random</a> is CLOSED for further comments.</p> <p>But, I have a question related to exactly this topic. I would like the default background gallery to load images in random order. (An options pulldown box for display order when uploading any kind of galleries would be even better!...)</p> <p>Kriesi submitted a solution if / else statement that would apparently filter only the background gallery to load in random order. But, I don't know where to try inserting that code into the includes / helper-slideshow.php file!?....</p> <p>The previous user said he tried editing the line ‘orderby’ =&gt; ‘menu_order ID’)); to read ‘orderby’ =&gt; ‘rand’)).....<br /> But, this 'orderby' line appears at least 2 times through the file.</p> <p>I am assuming Kriesi meant to substitute the if / else statement for the entire code block:<br /> $attachments = get_children(array('post_parent' =&gt; $attachment_holder['ID'],<br /> 'post_status' =&gt; 'inherit',<br /> 'post_type' =&gt; 'attachment',<br /> 'post_mime_type' =&gt; 'image',<br /> 'order' =&gt; 'ASC',<br /> 'orderby' =&gt; 'menu_order ID'));</p> <p>?<br /> Thanks for reading! </p>
