Shuffle Not Working

Same here. It will display the image of the first slide, but it doesn’t do anything else.

Yup, looks like a bug with WP 3.5

I think this is far more likely to be an issue within the plugin – not WordPress 3.5 core.

I fixed it by downgrading my version of wordpress and the plugin work great again. Here is a link to some good instructions on how to get the past version of wordpress.

Sorry, misunderstood what this thread was for, ignore this.

since this plugin is no longer in development, editing the plugin files seems like a decent way of fixing errors that have arisen due to wordpress updates.

here’s what i did to fix the shuffle issue of snivo:

? go to plugin editor
? select ‘simple nivo slider’ from your list of plugins
? make sure you’re editing ‘simple-nivo-slider.php’
? navigate to line 222 where you will see…
? query_posts($query);

for random order:
? query_posts($query.”&order=ASC&orderby=rand”);

for reverse order:
? query_posts($query.”&order=ASC”);

and so-forth and so-on…

cheers!
