  I’m trying to add a storyboard to my WordPress site. There are over 500 images, which I can display in 4 parts to ease the upload. I’ve tried several times, but the images show up in the Media page in the wrong order. How do I add a blog page with my images in the correct order?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hello there, upload order doesn’t have an impact on how the images are displayed in your posts or pages. The only exception to that is if you add your images to a Gallery feature (as outlined here) and then choose to display them as individual Attachment pages and have disabled the Photo Carousel in your site’s WP Admin>Settings>Media. Since the carousel is enabled by default, you’ll not need to change that setting.

  When you select multiple images to add to a post or page, you can use the EDIT tab in that secondary window to make a sort order and then insert the images.

  While this won’t help for the images you’ve already uploaded, it helps to arrange or rename your images in your computer’s folder in alpha/numerical order before you upload them.

  Hope that helps, but let us know if you have any other question.
