sort order problems

Copied this into its own topic as I'm not sure if it got lost as reply to the other:

I'm finding 1.2 (2234) sort order problems too, except mine extend to View Gallery.

Each album starts with year. I initially tried filename order. Order didn't work when changed to ascending. So I made a manual order: chronological except one album moved to be lead in for 2 albums/subalbums:

NAMES ARE NOT REAL :)
2008 album10
2007 album09
1998-97 album
1997 album08 / subalbum 1997 album001
1998 album07 / subalbum 1998 album002
1996 album06
etc

When saved. the two with subalbums keep moving to top of the order, before 2008 album10.

  • svn2330 still will not allow me to move the two albums with subalbums to where I want them to be (per above example). Upon save, they revert to being top of the album list.
  • If you are familiar with MySQL, check the parentid value of the subalbums that will not sort and ensure that they equal the id of the parent album. If not, they will be ignored during sort. I have opened ticket #719 on this issue.
  • Not familiar but know how to access via my web host. Thanks for the tip. If this is the case, it's possible ID didn't change when I used the "move function" within ZP.
  • Absolutly the album parentID did not change when the move/copy was done. That has been fixed in tonight's build. But you will need to move the albums again to get the parentID updated. Just move them somewhere and then move them back where you want them.
  • Just updated v2370 (haven't had chance before this). Followed your directions, sbillard and order is how I wanted it. Thanks.
  • Thanks for the update.
