Hi - I'd like to suggest that when you go to a Photo Gallery the default listing order is Descending Date order. This way the newest entries will be at the top and you can easily check the new submissions.

Think Interesting idea, but if you click on the "D" after date you can see the latest first.

Then you can enjoy all my new screen shots. Kick

Yeh I know you can re-sort the order, I'm just saying, it'll probably help if that is the DEFAULT display order.

Dont Know Gotcha, I really don't know the reason why, my guess is that besides being easier to load new aircraft shots, after looking at the new shots you won't go back to the old.
Just a guess but I can see your point, new aircraft come out every day and we'd like to see them now not later.

Comments read guys - I'll see if I can re-code the script to show newest first. At the moment, its in order of hits - meaning the most popular are at the first - most popular meaning what people want to see... but if they are up front, they are going to be most popular anyway because they are the first thing people see... right?

I'll work on it Wink

I am sure it is configurable! Confused
I am using coppermine and it has those option! Your gallery should have it too! (I THINK Confused )

Yup, back to the top. Can the default order be changed to DESCENDING DATE instead of most popular?

Sort Media by: _NAME (A\D) Date (A\D) _RATING (A\D) _POPULARITY (A\D)
Media currently sorted by: Popularity (Most to Least Hits)


A= Ascending.

D= Descending.


There is a post above of dear RadarMan which shows the same thing.

I think Dave wants the descending date to be changed so it is default, instead of seeing all of the same screenshots, from years ago, when you click on the Screenshot link Wink

Exactly what I'm saying - I **KNOW** the order can be changed by clicking Ascending or Descending but it is the DEFAULT order which I'm suggesting is changed - as mentioned this is because all we see when the page fires up is old pictures that everyone has seen 30,255 times Wink

It would be nice to be presented with the most recent screenshots first by default. Which is why I used the word DEFAULT in my post.
