[Feature Request] Ordering by page

[QnF6eq]

Being able to order by page would be a nice addition - it'd be awesome to also have a next and previous button on the post page.

Does Hydrus keep track of which pages belong to single collection/post/group?
I can add a functionality to order posts by page:* tags but then you'd probably have pages from various posts mixed together. Ie. first you'd see all page:1 posts, then page:2 posts, etc, so I doubt this would be any useful.
Is there any specific Hydrus feature that you have in mind that you'd want to see in Hybooru?

I suspect what they mean is a subsort. Order by import time, secondary import by page if present, grouping by...something. Maybe related images?

[funmaker]

Well, the import time can differ between pages, so even if you do secondary sort by page, the final order will depend mostly on which order hydrus imported the files.
I see that Hydrus has an option to sort by a sequence of tags like:

I personally do not have use for such feature. But it wouldn't be hard to implement, I can give it a go, but first I'd like to know the exact usecase of it.

[QnF6eq]

Yeah you both are right - this is meant for a search like "series:example volume:1 order:page" since order by ID or import time is likely not the real page order.

This feature would excel if this would allow for ordering by any namespace - as to mimmic hydrus' behavior shown in your screenshot eg. "series:example order:volume order:page".
