 * Hi, when I make a gallery with say 3 columns wide it seems to choose an ordering
   of the images on it’s own.
    When creating a gallery on wordpress there is an 
   option to put it in random order however this is unchecked.
 * Am I getting a bug or is this how the gallery is built, very frustrating when
   I’ve spent time curating a set of images but can’t get them to display in that
   order
 * thanks
    -chris

 * Hi Chris. The gallery uses whatever order you have placed the pics in. Make sure
   the random box is unchecked. You can view this quick video to see how you can
   manually reorder them as well [http://recordit.co/aqez7ro3A4](http://recordit.co/aqez7ro3A4)
