# Sorting issue, sorting order

 * I am using Nextcellent Gallery for quite a while but still haven’t solved this
   sorting issue.
 * The only gallery I have is neatly tagged and I am using shortcodes and tags to
   create smaller galleries on my page as needed. But no matter how I sort the images
   in the admin panel (and clear the cache), the order will not apply to the gallery
   on the page.
 * Let’s say, I have 5 images tagged with the same tag and I use this tag to create
   a gallery using [ nggtags gallery=tag ], they will always be displayed according
   to their ascending Image ID.
 * Is this a bug? A feature? Or do I miss something? (Yes, I have activated the 
   proper sort options in the gallery settings.)
 * Thanks in advance.

 * This is a bug. However, a pull request with a fix is being evaluated and will
   probably be included soon.

 * Thanks for the prompt reply. I’d love to see this working since it would make
   the gallery complete (at least for me).
 * Keep up your excellent work!

 * Hi sabakhurrum,
    I thought that was fixed long ago. What is your issue exactly?

 * For example, if I have 5 images tagged with the same tag and I use this tag to
   create a gallery using [ nggtags gallery=tag ] i.e. post-url?gallerytag=tagname
   it will always be displayed according to their ascending date or image id, whereas
   I want it to be sorted with the latest ones to be shown first.
 * Is there any solution for that? Pls guid.
 * best regards
