 * Hello again
 * Can I make the sliders appear in random order at all (using the shortcode)?
 * If not no problem- just something one of my clients requested but I can explain
   not possible if it isn’t.
 * Best

 * This was something I made a note of for myself to write into the next update (
   [honest!](https://github.com/tallphil/cpt-bootstrap-carousel/issues/3)).
 * If you’re willing to wait a short while I will be writing it in to the plugin
   as a shortcode option. If you’re in a rush, you can do it yourself by setting
   the `orderby` flat to `rand` when [WP_Query](http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query#Order_.26_Orderby_Parameters)
   is called..

 * Sounds great- I don’t mind waiting at all thanks.
    I’m sure it will be fine as
   it is for now. Thanks Chris

 * Hi Christine,
 * I’ve just written the new code – you should be able to download it from the github
   repository: [https://github.com/tallphil/cpt-bootstrap-carousel](https://github.com/tallphil/cpt-bootstrap-carousel)
 * The update includes a new shortcode option which you can use to randomise the
   order of your images. For example: `[image-carousel orderby="rand"]`
 * I’ll put out an update through wordpress.org once I’ve tidied up a few other 
   things (mostly improving the documentation).

 * Thank you for doing this 🙂
 * I will wait for the update though- I’ve told the client and they are very happy.
 * Thank you

 * Hi Christine,
 * I’ve just pushed the new version. Hopefully that should be filtering through
