    Hi – I want the images in the slider to be in a random order each time there is a visitor to the page, rather than in id order.
    The slider is a category slider on the homepage, calling post fomr one category only.

    I’ve had a look in catcheverest-functions.php and changed ‘orderby- => ‘post__in’ to ‘orderby’ => ‘rand’ in function catcheverest_category_sliders() but it hasn’t had any effect!

    Any ideas?

    Sorry, I’ve added ‘orderby’ => ‘rand’ to the function, there was no orderby in the category slider.

    @nicemarmot: Nice. Just to make sure, please don’t edit theme core files such as index.php, content.php, sidebar.php and so on.

    If you want to edit function catcheverest_category_sliders(), you can just build child theme and then create new file functions.php and then copy the function catcheverest_category_sliders() to functions.php file and edit it there.
