Option to Add Image to Top of List

When an image is added it is assigned a number for its place in the order of appearance in the gallery. What you are asking for is that the plugin reorder all the images every time a image is added to the gallery. This would increase the amount of time it takes to add an image to a gallery and is probably not a feature that many users would want.

I can’t believe that people adding images to a gallery would want the images from 5 years ago to appear first and have to sift through pages and pages to get to the most recent? Or spend all that time dragging and dropping each newly added image from the bottom to the top to reorder? It makes no sense that most recent would not appear first… A UI breakdown as far as I’m concerned… Sorry…

Good day!

JPWilkinson I support on this issue – I would like to be able to bring new images in the gallery at the beginning of the page.
Thank you.

I found a temporary solution (because when you update the plugin will have to re-edit the code):
In file ‘/wp-content/plugins/maxgalleria/maxgalleria-shortcode.php’ on line number ’64’
replace
'order' => 'asc',
to
'order' => 'desc',

Thanks aleks-nl5. I can see about adding a option to change the sorting order to descending and include it in the next release.

We have released Maxgalleria 3.1.7 which include an option to display images tiles and video tiles in descending order. Note that this does not change the order of gallery images when you view the contents of a gallery from the WordPress dashboard.

If this solves your issue thanks in advance for marking this thread as ‘Resolved’ so we know your question has been answered and for giving us and our plugin a rating at Maxgalleria Reviews
