I just uploaded 12 photos into an album on a user profile page... In this case it's important they show in the order of upload (either newest first, or oldest first) but I'm seeing inconsistency in how this is displayed - and also an error in what is displayed with the 'Load More' click - The issues are probably related... Here's how to replicate....

Problem 1
a) On the stream entry they show in one order: mysite.com /stream/item/55579
b) Now if you click that to go to the album view, they then show in the opposite order!

Can this be consistent one way or the other please? Important in cases like this when they should be viewed in a certain order.

Problem 2 (possibly sorted out by fixing Problem 1 - not sure!
c) From the album view (reached when you get to step b above).. if you click on the album title again, then it loads in the initial order again (as per step a)
d) At this point, if you click "Load More" then the 2 extra photos that appear are duplicates of the first 2 already on the screen and not the 2 missing ones.
Hi Andy,
I took a look at your stream item, then proceed to click on the album's link. This screenshot shows both the stream item and album page(http://take.ms/KGDoy). The ordering does not seems to be the opposite.

I have also checked this on my local instance and found that there is an issue with the ordering of the photos. By default, it is supposed to show the newest to oldest. I will report this issue to the devs so they can look into it.

I have provided a temporary fix in the following 2 files that will now show your photos from newest to oldest(http://take.ms/98puI). The loadmore will work as normal since it loads the oldest photos.

Thanks Raymond... It looks better but the 'Load More' is still incorrect..

I re-uploaded all the pics to test things.. so look at mysite.com/ albums/2974

It shows 10 of the 12 pics. Click 'Load More' and it brings up the 1st 2 again, and not the missing 2

All 12 all there because if you click to view an individual one and then use the navigation arrows you get to see all of them.
