I am new to Storyline so hoping for a little bit of assistance please.
I have built a story in Story View and it appears as I want it to however when I preview the entire project in the left hand column the slides and order are different to how they look in Story View.
I only am using one trigger e.g. jump to next slide, nothing fancy.
It's always worth checking the playing order of all the slides in the menu because it's easy to create a scene that doesn't follow numerical order. Eg. you (or SL) might think you have a scene that runs like this: 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, but in reality it should be 2.1, 2.2, 2.4, 2.5, 2.3. It's just something you look out for after a bit of practice. It trips you up mainly when you're relying on Prev/Next buttons for nav.

Hello Joanna and welcome!
Sounds like you just need to reset the slide order:
Click Player > Menu > Reset from story
Here's a screen grab of the how it should look:
