TOPIC: Media icons in consistent columns

9 months, 3 weeks ago Media icons in consistent columns #1433

Please forgive me if this is duplicated elsewhere, I have looked and can see some things for 6.0, but nothing for 6.1 and the versions do seem to be quite different in many ways.

Is there a way to get it so that the media icons show up in the same order without adding the media files to the database in that specific order? I added some files in "the wrong order", and so now have an entry with the order video, streaming video, MP3.

My preferred would be something like MP3, video, streaming video, so I deleted the media file entries and then added them again in that order, but it seems like it remembered they were there and so that's the order I'm stuck with (haven't tried removing the study too and starting from scratch adding the study entry and then the media files, but will try that next).

Any suggestions? I like the look of the interface, and have already (after only 24 hours) received some really positive feedback about the component (so well done and keep developing it please!), but a facility to enable and customise order of media files would be really helpful.

For examples, go to my site www.westroadchurch.org.uk/index.php/resources/watchlisten

The top entry is "the wrong way round", and the entry for 1 February 2009 (the very last entry on page 2) is "the right way round", well according to me anyway!

Once again Tom, thanks for all you do and your prompt replies to forum questions, it's very much appreciated

There is an "order" field when editing a media file that you can set that will adjust the ordering of the media files after you've added them.

I did try this with the up/down arrows in the media list and it didn't work

However, by going into each media file and setting the order (MP3 to first, WMV to last and MP4 to the third position) it has worked and looks exactly how I wanted it to look. Teaches me to look a little more carefully before posting a question as it's actually quite obvious if you look at it.

Thanks for your guidance
