Adding new images to top of gallery

Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Is it possible for the new image added to a gallery to come up first in order and not at the end of the page?

They will always be added at the end, but you can manually drag them to change position.

I have the same question.  As my galleries grow (e.g. nature photography), it can be very cumbersome to add images to the end of the page and drag them up to the top. 

Often the old and/or newly added images don't all load when editing, so it seems like bandwidth becomes an issue when having to re-order them manually.

I agree. It seems there should be an option to have new images added to the top. When you have a lot of galleries that have new images added every month, that would be a real time saver!

I just came back to this forum to start a new post on this topic if need be.  I'm trying to add photos to my gallery right now and my EXISTING photos take so long to load (IF at all) that I can't even select the new photos that I've added to move them to the top, since they aren't loading!  It is really unworkable and frustrating. 

 

Galleries are a huge part of my website as an amateur photographer.  I can't parse them out into little separate galleries, I want my collections to be able to grow!  I also don't want to resort to another photography application to organize my photos online and link to my website.... that is why I purchased a website subscription and shouldn't have to pay for another.  

 

Very frustrated right now 😞

It's been over a year since this question was asked and I'm assuming that it's still not possible to make new gallery images automatically appear at the top.

It would make my website a lot easier to handle if this were possible. How do we request this feature?

Totally agree. This is an absolute no brainer Squarespace. Anyone who knows anything about selling knows you want to showcase your new products/latest items first. This is a very simple fix and should be added as an option in the back-end so that I can have it that way, and the next person can have it the other way if they choose. It is cumbersome and slow to have to drag your images to the top every time you upload.

Yap this would make so much sense. In addition to it being super cumbersome dragging every new image to the top, I often get an error when doing so and have to reload the site. 
please add this feature to reverse the order of added images.

Really annoying, my galleries are starting to look out of date, I dont really want to spend hours dragging things around, might be easier to delete and start again, or possibly look for a website host that has a few more features.

I take it that there is still no solution to this issue 3 years later?  Is there any custom code that can change the order of images in a gallery?
