Change Default Asset Sequence in a Lightbox

Change Default Asset Sequence in a Lightbox

Every Lightbox has its own individual sequence settings. The default sequence is the order the files are presented in when a visitor views on the Lightbox. You can sort assets by upload time, capture time, file name, file size, rating or select your own custom order. The owner of the Lightbox is the only person who can change the default sort order.

Lightbox visitors and members will also see the sort order options, and can choose to display the files according to another sequence, but only the Lightbox Owner can set a new default.
