[Plugin: NextGEN Gallery] Album / Gallery Sort Order in Admin – Newest First?

    I would like to have those list in descending order by GID, instead of ascending order like they are now, so the most recently added is first.

    I’ve found several (TOPIC CLOSED) threads on this, but nothing recent. I’ve tried everything within them and nothing works.

    Changing: 

    $gallerylist = $nggdb->find_all_galleries('name', 'ASC', TRUE, 50, $start);

to 

$gallerylist = $nggdb->find_all_galleries('name', 'DESC', TRUE, 50, $start);

    In admin/manage-galleries.php doesn’t work-

    Changing all the instances of ‘ASC’ to ‘DESC’ in lib/ngg-lib.php as some other threads have taken in a shotgun approach doesn’t work. I’ve tried my best at hunting down the exact line that is doing it, but don’t know enough about it, obviously.. ??

    There’s a sort option in Options->Gallery, but everytime I select “Descending” and save the settings, it reverts to ‘Ascending’ as if I did nothing. … and I’m not sure if that is for the user side, or the admin anyway. It has no effect on anything anyway.

    No, nothing. I’ve somewhat learned to live with it, grudgingly.

    I might mess with it again.

    Between this and the total lack of navigation functions.. shame too, NGG does the rest quite well.

    Much less of a bloated resource hog like Gallery 2, and way more usable than Gallery 3.
