Is there a way so that the order of the images that appear in the gallery are by date/time stamp as opposed to the default order of image name?  I am using the slideshow layout.

 

Thank you,

Hi eldong,

 

1. Open file "\CuteSoft_Client\Gallery\Layout\SlideShow\Code.js"

 

2. Find section below

 

div.appendChild(nobr);
 this.items=[];

 

3. Add the section below under the section above

 

 function BubbleSort(arr)
 {
        var temp;
        var exchange;
        for(var i=0; i<arr.length; i++)
        {
            exchange = false;
            for(var j=arr.length-2; j>=i; j--)
            {
                if(GalleryFormatTimeHTML(arr[j+1].Time) <GalleryFormatTimeHTML(arr[j].Time))
                {
                    temp = arr[j+1];
                    arr[j+1] = arr[j];
                    arr[j] = temp;
                    exchange = true;
                }
            }
            if(!exchange) break;
        }
        return arr;
     }
    photos=BubbleSort(photos);

 

4. Like

 

div.appendChild(nobr);
 this.items=[];
  function BubbleSort(arr)
 {
        var temp;
        var exchange;
        for(var i=0; i<arr.length; i++)
        {
            exchange = false;
            for(var j=arr.length-2; j>=i; j--)
            {
                if(GalleryFormatTimeHTML(arr[j+1].Time) <GalleryFormatTimeHTML(arr[j].Time))
                {
                    temp = arr[j+1];
                    arr[j+1] = arr[j];
                    arr[j] = temp;
                    exchange = true;
                }
            }
            if(!exchange) break;
        }
        return arr;
     }
    photos=BubbleSort(photos);

 

5. You can switch "<" to  ">" to change the order

Hi Ken,

 

This did part of the trick.  It did sort the thumbnails, but the large pictures still are in the previous order.   So when I go to my page now, the fist picture that displays does not match the thumbmails.   Also, if I click on one of the thumbnails to view it, then click on next, it does not go to the next picture in the list, but the next one alphabetically, which leads to the thumbnails to scroll also.

 

Does the sort need to happen in another location/file also?

Hi eldong,

 

Try this way

 

1. Open file "\CuteSoft_Client\Gallery\Layout\SlideShow\Code.js"

 

2. Add the method below to the top of the page above

 

function BubbleSort(arr)
 {
        var temp;
        var exchange;
        for(var i=0; i<arr.length; i++)
        {
            exchange = false;
            for(var j=arr.length-2; j>=i; j--)
            {
                if(GalleryFormatTimeHTML(arr[j+1].Time) <GalleryFormatTimeHTML(arr[j].Time))
                {
                    temp = arr[j+1];
                    arr[j+1] = arr[j];
                    arr[j] = temp;
                    exchange = true;
                }
            }
            if(!exchange) break;
        }
        return arr;
     }

 

3. Fine section below (line 113)

 

 var photos=[];
  for(var i=0;i<this._categories.length;i++)
  {
   photos=photos.concat(this._categories[i].Photos);
  }

 

4. Add the section below under the section above

 

photos=BubbleSort(photos);

 

5. Fine section below (line 178)

 

div.appendChild(nobr);
 this.items=[];

 

6. Add the section below under the section above

 

photos=BubbleSort(photos);

 

7. Find section below (line 555)

 

if(photos.length==0)
  return null;

 

8. Add the section below under the section above

 

photos=BubbleSort(photos);

That did it!

 

Thank you.

Ken,

 

Found one more issue with the sorting - now when a user clicks on "Show Slider" the pictures are displaying in alpha order.  Where can I put that bubble sort to change that?

 

Also, is it possible to change just the text "Show Slider" to "Full Screen"?

 

Thank you,

 

Eldon

Hi eldong,

 

Have you miss steps 7 and 8? it will sort the photos in full screen mode.

 

And please send me a screenshot to show which text you want to change.
