order

In INTERDUBS the order of files in a folder is being controlled for client and admin interface independently.

See Sort_order and Admin_file_listing for details.

pro order

When you use the

 reorder 

function to control order of clips manually their order gets stored in sort values for each file. INTERDUBS will display the file with the smallest sort value first, then the second smallest and so on.


By enabling pro sort in personal preferences you will see these values displayed in the admin listing in a green color.

You can then also change them under the edit file / edit folder screen. Newly uploaded files also can receive a sort order index.


Example

The folder /presidents contains the following images, sorted alphabetically:

Adams
Jefferson
Monroe
Washington

When you sorted them chronologically:

[10] Washington
[20] Adams
[30] Jefferson
[40] Monroe

Now you realize that you forgot Madison. To make him the 4th in your list you simply would upload him and in the upload screen indicate that he should get an upload index higher than 30 and smaller than 40:

[10] Washington
[20] Adams
[30] Jefferson
[35] Madison
[40] Monroe
