    Hi There,

    I have a question regardin the order in which images are shown on the page, using the NextGEN Gallery plugin – I am uploading them in a particular order, but the page is not keeping that order, images are currently being sorted via Image ID, I have tried sorting by Filename as I do rename the images, but this is not working, I need the images to stay in the order that I upload them in.

    Thanks for the assistance in advance.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi @anytechsolutions,

    NextGen Gallery uses uppy.js uploader and this library automatically decides the sequence of the images’ uploading to make sure that the user gets the fastest completion time. Also, it comes with the parallel uploading enabled by default. This, unfortunately means that the sequence cannot be directly controlled and that NextGen will assign ID’s depending on uppy.js.

    There’s a workaround though. You can add the following constant to your site’s wp-config.php file to disable the parallel uploading and while it will slow down the process, that should force it use the sequence of the images depending on how would you add them to the uploader’s drop box.

    define('NGG_UPLOAD_LIMIT', 1);
