I'm creating a gallery for a user and they require the ability to move images around easily which is usually where the sort order comes in. However whenever I try and apply a change of sort order to a folder containing images uploaded using Multiple File Uploader it updates correctly in the tree and in the thumbnail preview of the folder, it also updates the sortorder field in the umbracoNode table in the db however it doesn't seem to change it in cmsContentXml table which is ultimately what the XSLT uses when looping through the folder images. It only seems to happen for images uploaded this way, any uploaded using the usual method (Right click folder, create, Image) work fine. I've tried this in most browsers I can think of and it happens in all of them. The other thing is when ever I click save on the folder it returns a "0" in the frame above the tabs but this happens on all folders with the this data type attached, don't know if this is linked to the problem? We are using Umbraco ver. 4.5.2.
Sorry, I have no idea why this may be happening and I don't currently have the time to do an analysis of the problem. I would recommend you use an image picker instead of picking the mediafolder, but I'm not sure if there are good ones available for 4.5.. DAMP and uComponents only work on 4.6+ I think.
Sort Order Issues

The other option you could look into is the http://our.umbraco.org/projects/website-utilities/desktop-media-uploader Desktop Media Uploader, although it says it requires the new XML schema, but I can't imagine why. It could work..
Alternatively, the source code is obviously available so you may want to dig a little further.
is working on a reply...
