 * Hi, The photo gallery plugin is excelente and i think there is only one feature
   i am missing, the thumbnail theme doesnt have the option to shuffle or make the
   images random, i know slide show theme has that but i need it on thumbnail theme.
 * Is there anyway i can achieve this?
    What php file should i have to edit to achieve
   this?
 * thank you!

 * Dear arturoperezn,
 * This is possible to achieve by editing \photo-gallery\frontend\models\BWGModelThumbnails.
   php file and making changes in public function get_image_rows_data where the 
   final result should look like the following:
 *     ```
       public function get_image_rows_data($id, $images_per_page, $sort_by, $bwg, $type, $sort_direction = ' ASC ') {
          global $wpdb;
          $sort_by = 'RAND()';
       ```

 * Is there also a possibility to change this for each page. Or make a option in
   the tumbnail menu.
