Sort user gallery icons

[WillyWonderDog]

How can I sort 'user gallery' icons. They appear to be auto-sorted by user-id or date-regged. I would like to sort differently, perhaps by alpha-name or even manually. Thanks for your consideration. By-the-way, cpg is a great piece of software, I really enjoy it.

I would like to sort the "user gallery" (mine displays "members' galleries") icons alphabetically by username; or other options such as newest member regged or member with newest album; etc.
The gallery is not bridged and has very few tweacks.
Thanks for your consideration.

Doesn't work for me.

should work now

That special category is sorted by user ID. There are (at least) 2 possibilities:
1. Use the "User Gallery Alphabetic Tabbing (usergal_alphatabs)" plugin
2. Hard-code the sort order somewhere in the code

I hadn't a closer look at option 2, as I recommend to try that plugin first.

Thanks for the ideas; User Gallery Alphabetic Tabbing plugin doesn't do what I am looking for, but so far no luck in manipulating the sort-order in the code. I will post if I succeed.

Please try the following. Open bridge/udb_base.inc.php, find

Code Select Expand

. "ORDER BY category "
and replace with

Code Select Expand

. "ORDER BY user_name "
at two locations.

Solution works perfectly. Thank you. André for president.
The solution sorts user gallery icons in alphabetic order; can also be adjusted for other sorts such as random.
As I am unable to edit a previous post, please remove my link to the gallery, it is no longer active.
Link to new gallery is http://saturday-only.hostoi.com/gallery
Coppermine Photo Gallery is an excellant script.

It is creating undesirable traffic.
Thank you for your consideration.
