Arrange by title was created by Duncan
Hi There, Ive been using and love Simple Image Gallery Pro
BUT now I have a huge gallery of uploaded photos which Ive been systematically labeling and adding descriptions to over the past few weeks.

My challenge is to now arrange the display of these images in alphabetical order - using settings, I can do this BUT it arranges according to the filename and not the "title description" …is there any workaround that we can use to display the photos according to their title not the file name. Im loathed to go back and rename each individual filename at this stage

Thanks in advance
Duncan

No. Unfortunately, you can't do this. Images are sorted based on their file names.

Has there been any discussion to offering a sort order, ie: filename, file date, ascending, descending? Or add the ability to 'move' the images around inside the gallery admin area for the sort order that is desired, which would be really great!

To be honest, this is one area that needs attention.

Hi have the same question. It would be great to be able to sort by date.

The next big update (v4) of SIGPro will utilize the database for storing all image references, so we can also take advantage of cloud storage options and a lot more. When we do that, it will be possible to use more ordering options, e.g. based on the actual label title, or the image creation date or perhaps data coming from EXIF metadata stored in the images themselves.
