I can’t seem to find any information on this, but I was wondering if its possible to determine the order of the pictures/articles in the JA Slideshow2 module? It seems to display them randomly without a real sense of order. Right now there are three images with descriptions (I have it set to show 4 of them, but considering the module just recently started getting some use, they have only put up 3 articles as of now) but they randomly appear in a different order every time you reload the page, they can’t have it that way, the most recent news must be displayed first. Any suggestions?

Depending on what you need to do you have to play with the settings.

In that thread:

I’ve checked the problem. There has some parameters that we need to care:

1. Sort type – the type which you want to do shorting.

• there has two types: Time and Name. Normally, i like to choose Name type

2.Sort order – the shorting order
There has 3 types:

1. Random
2. Ascending
3. Descending

Let choose one of you want 😉

3. Start item – The first item which you want to start sliding. Remember this, refer to Sort order to make sure the thing you want to do :p.

i tried, and everything is ok.

Please, let check and try again.

Good job.

PS: remember to set “Auto play” = yes</blockquote>

I do not have the option to change the “sort type” or “sort order”… perhaps is there a way I can edit the css and js in order to add those functions? If anyone can give me the code for it I’d greatly appreciate it.
