    Hi all

    Is there anyway to change the document ID? I’m using a simple ’next’ ’prev’ snippet that simply adds or removes the ID number, however, it would be useful to change the ID number ordering so that pressing the next or prev buttons is simpler.

    Thanks very much

      As far as i know you cant change the document id
      you can change the sort order and the menu order tho. but if you are using ditto you can use the startID or the folder id and place only the documents you wish to view into a folder?
      does this help?

        Thanks for the reply,

        How do I change the sort order?
        The situation is, I have a basic next and prev snippet for going forward and backward through documents, however, this only adds one to the document ID, so when it comes to removing documents you get a hole.

        Ideally I would like to use the PJN snippet but cant get that working so gave up! I use the [+PJN_next+] insert, but the page simple links to itself all the time.

        How will the Ditto help me?

        Thanks very much
