    Thank you for the very useful plugin – I am having a problem though as WordPress sort does not seem to recognise decimals. The sort order in the actual dropbox folder is fine but the sort on my site does not work properly.

    i.e. – Exercise 1.1 is followed by Exercise 10.1 instead of Exercise 2.1 – I think it may be confusing for the readers.

    Can I simply disable the sort or somehow add the decimal capability?

    Thanks so much and happy holidays!

    I also tried numbering every file 1-50 – sort order is fine in dropbox but again does not work in blighty ?? ….

    Hi – Thanks for the feedback. The sort method implemented was just a standard string sort which caused the ordering you saw.

    I’ve added functionality (v1.9.6) to allow you to select a “natural” sort in the admin settings. This will hopefully achieve what you’re looking for.

    Thanks!
