Hi, I have the following call for a gallery of images:
```
[[!getPage@newspaging?
&element=`Gallery`
&plugin=`slimbox` 
&thumbTpl=`galItemThumb`
&limit=`[[+limit]]`
&start=`[[+offset]]`
&album=`Carousel`
&limit=`24`
&totalVar=`gallery.total`
&pageNavVar=`page.nav`
]]
```
I was just wondering if there is a parameter I can use to sort the images in alphabetical order?

If you take a closer look at the gallery snippet properties found here, you will see:
```
&sort=``
```
You can also sort the images by ascending or descending:
```
&dir=``
```
Again here, you can remove the default CSS by adding:
```
&useCss=`0`
```
So, at a guess a call could include the following:
```
&sort=`id` &dir=`asc` &useCss=`0`
```
Could be wrong so it's a trial and error situation

WOW, just realised I am also learning a lot here

I cannot believe the amount I have learned in the last week or so! I have tried the above, I just had to tweak the sort parameter to this:
```
&sort=`name`
&dir=`asc` 
&useCss=`0`
```
And it all works. Thank you
