Is there a way to reorder galleries too?

There is not such built in drag-and-drop feature. Galleries are node entries and are sorted by sticky-ness and creation date.

-> "ORDER BY n.sticky, n.created DESC"

You can sort them manually by editing "Authoring information -> Authored on" time on gallerys` "Edit" tab.

Perhaps you could add a weight field to {prog_gallery} in the future, to provide the ability to sort galleries?

I still don't think this feature will be implemented, but i`ll leave this postponed for some e.g. version 2.0 or something.

effort vs usage.

Thanks for idea anyway!

I'm not sure if I understand the problem here

Isn't there the autosort button for this?

What I see is that when I press the autosort it sorts them by picture name descendant.

Maybe could ad an option on setings to choose the sorting way.

I personally need it to sort ascendant.

Would it be possible to make the autosort with double effect?

I mean, if I click autosort again it swaps the sort order 1st click sort descendant -> 2nd click sort ascendant.

The problem I find with the drag and drop sorting method (which is great feature by the way) is when you have a big gallery (bigger than 1 fold screen, the bigger the worst).

In this case, if you want to move pictures around, eg the top ones to the bottom, I have to drag it to the bottom of the screen, scroll down, drag it again, scroll down etc etc.

Do you know what I mean?

Therefore a setting that gives better control of the autosort would be really helpful.

Thanks again.

autosort issue goes here #398366: Sort pictures ascending (by date), ordering galleries stay postponed for brainstorming here.

I think you should use custom view to sort and display galleries in whatever order you want.
