Hi,
first, sorry if this was already answer did not found it…

I really enjoy your plugin meteor slide, I am wondering is there a build in function that could allow me to do this :

I have a lot of slides, and i would like to load only X at the times (depending on configuration). The only reason why I wan’t to do this, is for a faster page loading, and also, I think it’s rare that user will look at all of them.
So I would like to load from all the slides randomly X slide. I dont wan’t a random order (wich i don’t mind at all) but loading X from the lot. So before modifyng your plugin, Is there any chances you have implement that?

thank you verry much

Hi, it sounds like instead of loading the 5 latest slides and randomly ordering those, you want to load 5 random slides from all the slides, is that right?

You can do this with a custom slideshow template, editing the slideshow query:

$meteor_loop     = new WP_Query( array(

		'post_type'      => 'slide',
		'slideshow'      => $slideshow,
		'posts_per_page' => $meteor_options['slideshow_quantity']

	) ); ?>

To look like this:

$meteor_loop     = new WP_Query( array(

		'post_type'      => 'slide',
		'slideshow'      => $slideshow,
		'posts_per_page' => $meteor_options['slideshow_quantity'],
		'orderby'        => 'rand'

	) ); ?>
