I fixed this by using the standard loop and not a page template and then setting my front page to static. Still curious as to why this wouldn’t work only in Windows.

I’m using Apache, no luck for me yet

Any luck with this Melanie? I sent the dev an e-mail as well but haven’t heard back. I see there are responses to other issues after this one.

Ha! I feel slightly stupid.

Smooth Slider Settings => Basic Settings tab => Number of Posts in the Slideshow

All fixed

I figured it out so I thought I’d post back here. I’m sure there’s a better way but here goes:

<?php
$current_parent = $post->ancestors; // Get parent's ID
$current_page = $post->ID; // Get current page's ID
shuffle(query_posts(array('post__not_in'=>array($current_page), 'post_parent'=>$current_parent[0], 'post_type'=>page, 'posts_per_page'=>-1)));
	while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
		<a href='<?php the_permalink(); ?>'>
		<?php echo "<div class='suggestions'>";
		echo "<img src='" . get_post_meta($post->ID, 'product_image_lg', true) . "' />";
		echo "<p class='popcorn_id'>";
		echo "<span>#";
		echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'product_id', true);
		echo "</span> - ";
		echo the_title();
		echo "</p>";
		echo "</div>"; ?>
		</a>  <!-- end suggestions -->
	<?php endwhile; wp_reset_query();
?>

First I get the IDs of the current page and it’s parent page. Then use query_posts() based on those two findings, shuffle the results and display.

Thanks ColorVilla. Unfortunately I’m so new I don’t know how to implement that. I’m looking for either the code or a really good tutorial.
