Unable to change order on main gallery

20 Apr 2026, 10:36

Greetings, 
I keep having a problem with the display order of the gallery on the homepage.  No matter what option I pick the display order doesn’t change.  I’ve cleared out the cache, used a different browser, but no luck. 

Is there a trick to get the order changed to what I want? 
My site is at https://edmull.in

Thanks, Ed

Ok. So I checked your website (looks very nice btw), and I can see you have:

1. Slideshow (gallery)
2. Albums (folders, assigned from the "galleries" as "assets folder").

So when you say "problem with the display order of the gallery", are you referring to the actual gallery (slideshow)? Or the folders below? The first would be assigned from index page > settings > gallery, while the albums would be sorted by index page > settings > folders. It seems like gallery is set to sort by "custom", while folders are set to sort by "date".

I can't see anything wrong from here. If you feel that either gallery or folders are not sorted according to your settings, I can only check if you can send panel login so I can review.

PS! Keep in mind, the sort order you see in the panel is not necessarily the same as the order you see in the website. The sort order on the website is decided by the actual sort OPTION you assign from the panel.

Thanks for the quick reply! 
I didn’t remember that there were options under the Settings tab. 
Once I looked there I was able to get it working the way I wanted. 

Thanks, Ed
P.S. I’m glad you liked the site. I couldn’t have done it without your wonderful system. It’s a simple but powerful tool.
