Numeric Gallery Sort?

    I’m working on migrating a site that was using a very old legacy version of NextGEN (nextcellent-gallery-nextgen-legacy) into the newest version of NextGEN in order to keep it up to date.

    I’ve been able to migrate it over with little to no problems, however I’ve now come across a major issue for this client. With the default sorting method selected to ‘Alt/Title Text’ it appears to be using alphabetical sorting, whereas previously it appeared to use numeric sorting. Is there any way to adjust the plugin to use numeric sorting?

    (This is an issue as the client used numbers in the Alt/Title Text field to sort images in a specific order, for which they have 1000s of)

    So for example previously they would display in the order of 10 11 12 etc..
    and now are displaying 10 100 1000 etc..

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

    Hi @mtresch,

    Good question. I am afraid we don’t currently have such a workaround unless custom sorting the images the way you’d like but we have it as a feature request under our radar to look into improving the sort order when the images’ titles are combos of string+numeric format. As of now, these titles are being compared as text/string only.

    We’ll probably come with a solution for this one at a future point.
