tried this and it didn’t work:
[ngg_images gallery_ids=”1″ display_type=”photocrati-nextgen_basic_thumbnails” order_by=”random” number_of_columns=”3″]
Would also be curious to know about this…
@brian and @aleph22 – The current version of NextGEN Gallery does not offer an order_by parameter for the Basic Thumbnails display; and, unfortunately the “Custom” sort method (think drag and drop) in the ATP does not consistently work at this time.
The former is a great Feature Request idea and I will be making note of it while the latter is something we are currently looking to sort out.
Thanks for the idea!

Try using order_by=’rand()’:
[ngg_images gallery_ids="1" display_type="photocrati-nextgen_basic_thumbnails" order_by="rand()" number_of_columns="3"]
Wow Benjamin,
that actually works! Thanks a lot! I had tried this before, but had omitted the () part…
great!

Yes … thanks, Ben!
I’ve made a note for this and if no one minds will mark this thread as resolved, too.
