Title: Sorting Photos
Post by: danzman on October 17, 2007, 07:36:59 PM
I used the sorting function to arrange the photos in a folder; however, when I view the pics as a non-logged-in viewer, the order is not sorted.  I have captions that are meant to be read in order.  How do I make it so that the order I want is the order that is presented (without using the "position" sorter on the thumbnails view)?

What have you set the 'Default sort order for files' to in config?

It was set to 'Date ascending'. I will try other settings and see. I will report back with comments.

I have the same issue, even when after setting the ascending,
descending settings the photos continue to be loaded in front
of each other rather than behind

I do realize also that uploading photos from different cameras
and having more than one computer assign .jpg, each cameras
photos will have a different jpg sequence, that is why I saved each
one as a sequental .jpg for the uploading to the photo book.

With that in mind, I renamed and saved .jpgs as Slide02.jpg ,
Slide02a.jpg,Slide03.jpg,Slide03a.jpg and on and on.
When uploading the .jpgs they upload in front of what was already
uploaded. It continues to do so no matter what descending or ascending
setting is used.

I even deleted the section of the photo book and renamed it and reloaded,
still the same issue. 

Too manually sort is ok for using on small amount of photos, I have an ongoing photo book and this section needs to be auto, not manual sort.



Thank's for Any suggestions?

Then the same piece of advice applies to you as well:
