Random order for Partner/Logo Element

Hey Siracher!

Thank you for using our theme.

Currently it is not possible out of the box. You have to modify the folllowing core file:

enfold\config-templatebuilder\avia-shortcodes\logoslider.php

Locate line 350:

$this->slides = get_posts(array(
				'include' => $ids,
				'post_status' => 'inherit',
				'post_type' => 'attachment',
				'post_mime_type' => 'image',
				'order' => 'ASC',
				'orderby' => 'post__in')
				);

and replace with:

$this->slides = get_posts(array(
				'include' => $ids,
				'post_status' => 'inherit',
				'post_type' => 'attachment',
				'post_mime_type' => 'image',
				'order' => 'ASC',
				'orderby' => 'rand')
				);

This is a quick fix.

I post a filter hook to kriesi, maybe in the next releases it will be integrated:

Replace the code above with:

$args = apply_filters( 'avf_logoslider_select_args', 
					array(	'include' => $ids,
							'post_status' => 'inherit',
							'post_type' => 'attachment',
							'post_mime_type' => 'image',
							'order' => 'ASC',
							'orderby' => 'post__in' )
					);
			
$this->slides = get_posts( $args );

In functions.php of the theme or childtheme put the following:

add_filter('avf_logoslider_select_args', 'my_logoslider_select_args');

function my_logoslider_select_args ($args)
		{
			$args['orderby'] = 'rand';
			return $args;
		}

If this hook is integrated, you just have to make sure, that you put the code in functions.php.

Hi!

Sorry, I missed that a resorting is taking place a couple of lines below.

Locate the following just below:

//resort slides so the id of each slide matches the post id
			$new_slides = array();
			foreach($this->slides as $slide)
			{
				$new_slides[$slide->ID] = $slide;
			}

and replace with:

                        $resort = apply_filters( 'avf_logoslider_resort_slides', true);
			$new_slides = $this->slides;

			//resort slides so the id of each slide matches the post id
			if($resort)
			{
				$new_slides = array();
				foreach($this->slides as $slide)
				{
					$new_slides[$slide->ID] = $slide;
				}
			}

In functions.php add the following:

add_filter('avf_logoslider_resort_slides', 'my_logoslider_resort');
function my_logoslider_resort($resort)
{
      return false;
}

As a quick fix replace:

 $resort = apply_filters( 'avf_logoslider_resort_slides', true);

with

 $resort = false;

Hey!

I give you the full code for a quick solution:

Replace the original code

$this->slides = get_posts(array(
				'include' => $ids,
				'post_status' => 'inherit',
				'post_type' => 'attachment',
				'post_mime_type' => 'image',
				'order' => 'ASC',
				'orderby' => 'post__in')
				);

//resort slides so the id of each slide matches the post id
			$new_slides = array();
			foreach($this->slides as $slide)
			{
				$new_slides[$slide->ID] = $slide;
			}

with:

$this->slides = get_posts(array(
				'include' => $ids,
				'post_status' => 'inherit',
				'post_type' => 'attachment',
				'post_mime_type' => 'image',
				'order' => 'ASC',
				'orderby' => 'rand')
				);

                        $resort = false;
			$new_slides = $this->slides;

			//resort slides so the id of each slide matches the post id
			if($resort)
			{
				$new_slides = array();
				foreach($this->slides as $slide)
				{
					$new_slides[$slide->ID] = $slide;
				}
			}

Cheers!

Hey!

Thank you for coming back.

I’m sorry to tell you that it is not possible to find a quick solution for your request.

I found out, that it needs a huge modification in the logic of several functions in this file.

It is possible to implement, but this is customization and bejond the scope of support.
