I like this module, what about a option to randomize the order of shown content, would this be possible?

This is on my short list of features to implement. But, it might be a month of 2 before I have the time to work on it.

Hi,
Could you not just add the Sort Criteria Global:Random to the View that generates your views rotator slideshow and thus get randomized content?

Post #2 from Troodon is correct. I began doing that with a small closed off test site I'm building as I explore using Drupal for a few of our websites. It works like a charm by setting the Sort Criteria to Global: Random.

This might still be a good feature for the module if it isn't too difficult to implement. I mean what if, for example, in Views you want the newest 10 nodes (Node: Date Posted) and then you want the carousel to randomize those?
