Using jquery cycle2 - how to put slides in certain order #707

Hello,

I've inherited some code for a sharepoint page which is using the cycle2 js with cycle overlay and some javascript to pull the image information (title, imagename, description, etc.) from a sharepoint picture library. I can't seem to find out how to show the images in a certain order using the slideshow. Anyone have any ideas on this?

Thanks

When you are retrieving the images from the SharePoint Picture library, in this case I'll assume you're using javascript, build a caml query that will retrieve the title,

var camlQuery = new SP.CamlQuery();
    camlQuery.set_viewXml("<View />");
    var qitems = list.getItems(camlQuery);

    var items = context.loadQuery(qitems, "Include(Title, FileRef)");

then just make sure you title the slides(i.e. the images) in the library with names like slide-1.jpg, slide-2.jpg . . . etc. When they are retrieved they will be in the order of 1,2,3 . . . etc. When the slideshow is created they should be in order.
