[Plugin: File Gallery] Won't allow reordering.

Ah – got this too and posted a similar complaint.

Dc.

same problem on multiple sites with varying versions of WP, but most recent version of FG.

Glad to hear others have this problem too, but how do we get it addressed? Thoughts?

Me too. WP 3.4.1. Gallery not re-orderable.

Also, galleries of attachment images are displaying in REVERSE ORDER from the (unchangeable, incorrect) order shown in file gallery.

see my possible solution: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/plugin-file-gallery-orders-now-messed-up-and-cant-be-updated?replies=3#post-3027885

@everyone:

I’ll release an update tomorrow to fix this issue.

my apologies on a slow response, but it’s my last week at work before summer break and I’m busy as hell.

thanks for understanding, and thanks for using File Gallery ??

Very awesome! Thanks for all the effort ??

@aesque – awesome and thank you! unless you already know the problem, i think i found 3 minor errors that were causing the issue: as i linked to above. it is working for me locally. the datebase queries were always working but retrieving the data your sortby variable wasn’t being defined properly.

hopefully that helps somehow.

I’ve uploaded v1.7.5.2 here:

https://skyphe.org/files/wordpress/file-gallery-1752.zip

if anyone could test this version and confirm it works on their setup, I’d be very grateful.

It’s better: pictures remain as re-ordered on the post editing page when updating, but remain ordered by upload date on the blog.
Thanks for your work;

i confirm jako2000’s problem. i think in templating.php you have to have

$orderby = “menu_order ID”;

instead of

$orderby = “menu_order, ID”;

when i remove that comma the gallery appears in the correct order. i’m not even sure why ID is needed here?

If I add order=”file-gallery” in the text, order on the blog is different, but still not the wished one. Hope it may help.

I had the same problem even after the v1.7.5.2 installation.
But helgatheviking’s suggestion worked! (changed 2 lines in “templating.php”)

Thanks for both helgatheviking and Aesqe!

Especially for Aesqe to develop such a wonderful plug-in!!

Fixed in 1.7.5.3 – marking as resolved.
