I am using the NextGEN plugin in WordPress to display a thumbnail for each gallery in an album. However, it seems that the gallery order that I specify in the album is only preserved if there are 5 or fewer galleries in the album. When there are more than 5 galleries in the album, the thumbnails display in a consistent but wrong order. Adding a 7th gallery shuffles them again, etc.
I looked in the database for the order but it is too cryptic, e.g., WyI2IiwiNSIsIjQiLCIzIiwiMiIsIjEiXQ==
This is the shortcode that I am using:
[ngg_images album_ids="9" display_type="photocrati-nextgen_basic_compact_album" thumbnail_height="300" thumbnail_width="300" thumbnail_crop="1" override_thumbnail_settings="1"]
Unfortunately it is buried deep, and no really useful answer can be found on the web, except for the following thread, which finally helped me: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/album-sort-order
