Hey,
I'm not sure if this is (easily) possible but you can try following mod - open up includes/helper-slideshow.php and replace:
$this->slides = avia_post_meta($this->post_id, 'slideshow');with:
$this->slides = avia_post_meta($this->post_id, 'slideshow'); if(is_home()){ shuffle($this->slides ); }Posted 5 months ago # -
Dude, could you tell me how to randomize background photo on EVERY page ?
I think it's a little boring when guest sees always the same first photo. I've tried to make few galleries, different on every page but i'm not satisfied...Posted 5 months ago # -
Hey,
it's in includes/helper-slideshow.php - please search again (and use offline editors like notepad++). Maybe try to search for some text parts only.Posted 5 months ago # -
I have searched whole folder by notepad++ and nothing found :(

Ok - I'm sorry. Something changed V1.3 in includes/helper-slideshow.php search for:
foreach($attachments as $key => $attachment)and replace it with:
shuffle($attachments ); foreach($attachments as $key => $attachment)Posted 5 months ago # -
Glad that I could help you :)

Yes, it works fine :) but why only at start page ? I've set default gallery at every page... Is it possible to set it to the whole pages ?
Posted 5 months ago # -
OK it works :) But is any other way to randomize default background gallery ? Unfortunately this way it shuffles every gallery (portfolio, blog).

Allright, I solved the problem with default gallery at homepage only - I made some mistake when I moved blog form /blog folder one level up.
Do you have any idea how to randomize background gallery without randomize gallery at my blog ? Right order photos in my blog is very important form me. I'll be really thankful :)

I haven't tested it but try following - in template-blog.php replace:
get_template_part( 'includes/loop', 'index' );with:
$avia_config['currently_viewing'] = 'blog'; get_template_part( 'includes/loop', 'index' );and replace:
shuffle($attachments ); foreach($attachments as $key => $attachment)with:
global $avia_config; foreach($attachments as $key => $attachment) if($avia_config['currently_viewing'] != 'blog'){ shuffle($attachments ); } foreach($attachments as $key => $attachment)Posted 5 months ago # -
Unfortunatelly still the same :(

Did you set your blog page via the Flashlight option panel?
Posted 5 months ago # -
Yes, I did. Does it matter if it site name begins from a capital letter ?

I just saw that Kriesi doesn't call the avia_config variable. I changed the code above a bit. Please try it again.

It doesn't work :(
You can see it at http://krzysztof-krawczyk.com
I checked it twice. Blog page is set to blog in Flashlight menu.Try to visit my portfolio and blog sub-pages. Images in galleries are still mixed :( Background default gallery works fine - I really like it :)

Then I think it's not easily possible because wordpress doesn't offer an option to determine the blog page. It would require some framework changes...

Hmmm... that's interesting... I was trying other galleries and it seems that it works only at Wordpress Default Gallery attached to the entry. Maybe this way it looks less interesting but it works like I wanted it to :)
Anyway thanks to you for help!

Hello,
Jacking a thread as opposed to starting completely fresh as its almost the same request.
Is there a way to have the Default Background Image Gallery use only the featured images from each Post automatically, and If not, is it possible to suggest it as a possible feature for a future update?

Create a new thread and tell me what problems you are encountering and what you want to know. 
There is no step 3 :) 
Themeforest support threads are not searchable. Since most questions are asked over and over again a searchable forum will make it possible that you dont even need to wait for my response, because its already there.
