Title: Sorting Albums
Post by: OPaul on September 17, 2009, 05:35:42 pm

How do I sort albums? Or at least set the order so that the newest album appears at the first position (descending)?

Thanks

You sort albums using the arrow button on the album manager screen. There is no other sorting mechanism out of the box. If you need automated sorting, you have to specify where exactly that sorting should happen. Posting a link to your gallery might be a godd start (and is mandatory anyway as per board rules).

So right now it seems as though everything is sorted by putting the newest album at the end. That can't be reversed without modification to the code?

Upgrade first before doing anything else. Your gallery is outdated and therefore vulnerable.

Does the new version have the option I'm looking for?

You're running cpg1.4.20, while the most recent stable release currently is cpg1.4.25. There are no new features in maintenance releases.

.....

ok... so the answer to my question is no? I can not sort albums in descending (newest first) order without manually moving them?

I don't really follow why I had to post the URL to my album to get that information.....
