Hi there,
Can you explain a bit more about how you want to sort them?
After selecting the images from your media library, you can drag and drop your images to re-arrange before inserting it to the gallery page. You can also add captions and preview it before you want to insert and publish it.
Please check out this video to learn more:

Hi there, just adding that if you are using the new Block Editor, rearranging images is a known issue with the Gallery block. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/editing-tiled-gallery-with-block-editor/#post-3270624
The solution for the moment is to add the Gallery using a Classic Editor block and then following the guide that staff-arya linked to in her reply.
staff-arya – this is a good example where doing a tag search can be very productive. Add a tag to the forum thread sidebar and look for related threads. :)

Thanks, but my specific question has to do with reordering photos within existing galleries that have already been uploaded. I understand how to make them, how to order the photos before they are saved. Is there any way to reorder existing galleries without having to delete and completely reupload pictures to change the order? I would like to sort them manually by clicking and dragging within as existing gallery. Is that possible?

By the way, the blog I need help with is not the one listed above; it’s this one:
And as long as I’m asking, I made the mistake of adding something to the cart that I do not wish to buy, but I can find no way to delete it and I keep getting messages and emails to complete my order.
Thanks….

If you click on the Shopping cart there should be a “trash” bin below it to empty the cart.

Hi @grassflats, yes you can. https://en.support.wordpress.com/gallery/#editing-a-gallery-or-slideshow
In the older Classic Editor, click on the Gallery and you should see a pencil icon appear. Click on that and you should be able to rearrange and/or add more images in the window that opens. Make sure to click the Update button and Save your post again.
Let us know if you need more help with that.

I have tried doing that multiple times and it never worked until just now….thanks so much.

Hi there,
yes, reordering is possible.
1. if you are using block editor, switch to classic editor (right menu while editing post > More options)
2. click on the gallery, click the pencil icon and you are in a dashboard where you can drag and drop to reorder or delete with XLet us know if it works for you
