    I’m trying to order media files by the built in WordPress custom order (drag n drop) on filter results. However, every time a new media file is uploaded the order of all media files gets randomly messed up. Is there a way to prevent this from happening?

    Most ‘Post Type Order’ plugins are not compatible with our plugin, as they interfere with the wp_query arguments, and our plugin then overwrites what they do. What plugin are you using to do this?

    Is there any logic to the order you want them in? (i.e. what decides you to put one first, etc.?)

    I’m not using a post type order plugin but I am using an enhanced media library plugin. That plugin is set to organize the images by “custom order” which is the drap n drop order. I can get everything in order using drag n drop. All galleries and the filtered results look correct. But as soon as a new image gets added to the library, all of the custom orders are messed up.

    Any thoughts on a possible solution are greatly appreciated!

    Ah. Maybe. Is this the process:

    #1 Upload a new Image
    #2 Drag and drop the order

    What happens if you then edit the image and ‘Update’ it in the normal WordPress single post page for media (you can see this if you view the media in list view)?

    Just figured out the issue. There was an added post order function in the functions file that I was unaware of. I appreciate your time! Thank you!
