Is it possible... was created by CoreyBstn
I would like the image order to be random in the slider.
In other words, if a user comes to the site, the effects slider starts and begins with image 1. If they move to another part of the site and then return to the home page (location of slider module), it reloads and starts with image 1 again.
Is there a way to randomize this? So if a user returns to the home page, let's say that image 4 loads first, then another random image, etc...
Thanks for any and all help!!

Oops...I forgot, here is the site I am working on with the client, this is only "live" in the design sense so they can view it as I go along. It is not on their host yet.

Hi,
That can be done but you must change script in order of adding that functionality.
In mod_hot_effects_rotator/js/jquery.nivo.slider.js
there is internal variable named "currentSlide". You can store it's value in cookie when user leaves the page (window.onbeforeunload = function(){...}).
You can check the if that cookie is present and if yes, set currentSlide to it's value rather than 0;
var currentSlide = 0;
Also here is useful link that describes cookie use:
www.w3schools.com/JS/js_cookies.asp
I hope this advice will help you.
