    The default order that HungryFEED displays is the exact order that the RSS Feed returns the items (usually it is date based). You can optionally use order=”reverse” or order=”random” to your shortcode to change the order. At the moment those are the only options.

    I’m having the same problem. I think it’s due to a bug in Simplepie.

    The Amazon bestsellers rss is a top 10 list, with all the items having the same timestamp. For example: http://www.amazon.co.uk/rss/bestsellers/kids
    You can see from this that they’re listed in the correct order.

    But when I use that url with Hungryfeed they show in a different order. I suspected Simplepie could be responsible, so I went to the demo page on the Simplepie site (http://simplepie.org/demo/), and when I entered the Amazon url above they showed in the same incorrect order I get with Hungryfeed.

    Using order=”none” fixes the problem
