 * Hello
 * That’s a busy update to the version 2.0.0. 🙂
 * I had to readd all galleries to the albums and now it “works”. But the shuffle
   function (Gallery Settings >> NextGEN Basic Slideshow >> Shuffle) doesn’t work
   correctly. I did:
 * Shuffle [ ] yes [*] no
 * and save.
 * The shuffle function is going ahead. It never stops. Is there a solution for 
   stopping shuffle?
 * Thanx

 * Same here with nextgen version 2.0.30

 * Shuffle is there, but is only ON and cannot be set OFF. When set to OFF the shuffle
   stays ON on the site.
 * I also want sequential galley slideshow.

 * Nextgen slideshow only plays random, to fix (workaround) this, change the following:
 * File: index.php
    Location: /wordpress/wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery/products/
   photocrati_nextgen/modules/nextgen_basic_gallery/templates/slideshow/
 * and change this rule:
    `$swfobject->add_flashvars( 'shuffle', $flash_shuffle,'
   false', 'bool');`
 * in to:
    `$swfobject->add_flashvars( 'shuffle', $flash_shuffle, 'true', 'bool');`
 * This solved my slideshow!
    Even the switch ‘Shuffle’ in nextgen settings does
   what it should do! Randomize when ‘Yes’, sequence when ‘No’ 🙂
 * Regards, DG.
