   Hi c-m-y-k,

   I'm not sure the slider can individually support a random order but there may be a way to change it site wide. I've tagged the topic for another of the support crew who should be able to give a quick yes or no as well as at least point you in the right direction if it can be easily done.

   Regards,

   Hey,
   yes - 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');
   shuffle($this->slides );

   Best regards,
   Peter

   Hey!

   Tbh I'm not sure why it's not working in your case. Maybe a third party plugin changes the slide order? Can you post a link please?

   Regards,
