@superbiggi – I’m not seeing a NextGEN Gallery display on your site specifically, I am seeing another plugin’s display and as such I would expect you would need to work within its interface to sort out how things are being displayed.
Thanks!

Cais, I had to change this to a theme-built in slideshow on top of the page because NextGen was not working and I had to get this page done (it was time sensitive). So no, there is no NextGen slideshow showing anymore because no matter what I did, it was showing all thumbnails instead of one slideshow.
The other issues persist, please go to http://www.biggster.com/mygallery/plan-bbk/
and please let me know how the sorting issue can be fixed. I have had this with other NextGen galleries, no matter how I create them (green button, [ng …] code) and it is very annoying. It has been tested on other themes so it is not theme related. I have also tried various plugin settings (including disabling them all) which does not help.
@superbiggi – Unfortunately I do not have a point of reference as to what is wrong with the sort order without the additional context of how the display is being inserted and what the settings/parameters for the inserted display are.
Thanks!

That gallery (http://www.biggster.com/mygallery/plan-bbk/), as well as previous ones I added, cannot be custom sorted (or the sort order changed in any other way).
To better understand, look at this one: http://www.biggster.com/mygallery/wapta-traverse-2016/ It is very easy to see from the captions that it starts with the last day of the trip when it should be starting with Day 1. It’s very annoying to send it to friends in this wrong order.
When I go into Gallery – Manage Gallery, there is no sorting option for the gallery (no button). When I go to the page that has the gallery added (in this case, http://www.biggster.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=4616&action=edit) I click on edit and work through the settings in the modal window that pops up, all the way to the bottom of the accordion panel where it says to “sort/exclude”, I change the order there, then save, and it does not show any changes online. I have cleared the cache too.
The display was inserted with the green button onto the page but I also tried it with the shortcut (“[nggallery …. id …]”) which made no difference.
What else do you need to know? I have been dealing with this for so long and still don’t get answers back, only questions. Please help.
PS
This solution in a previous thread does not work for me:
“I just discovered that not using the NextGEN gallery widget with Pagebuilder,and only using Visual editor and clicking the new GREEN BUTTON to insert the gallery and sort from there works perfectly. Seems to have solved my problem. Good tutorials on the Imagely page!”
I tried adding the gallery with the small green button into the page and using the settings in the modal window to sort, and while it shows the correct first picture in the edit interface for the page, when I save and view online, it is back to the old order.
Also, the settings for a gallery I insert into a page do not work. I tried adding an existing NextGen gallery to a page with slideshow settings but it would not recognize any change in settings at all and instead show the gallery as thumbnails on the page, no matter what I did.
@superbiggi – I see you have written a Bug Report for this issue. Thanks! Let’s carry on the conversation there for the time being.
