Why does the Mood Image ordering change across different editions?

When arranging mood images in an edition, you might notice that reordering a mood image in one edition causes its position to change in another edition as well. This article explains how image sorting currently works.

How image sorting works

Currently, the system saves the display order directly on the mood image, rather than per edition. This means a mood image has a single, global position across the entire platform.

What happens when an image is used in multiple editions?

Because a mood image shares the same position everywhere, editing its order in one place impacts all editions it belongs to:

  • Global updates: If you place a mood image at position 1 in Edition A, it receives position 1 globally. If you later reorder that same mood image to position 5 in Edition B, its position in Edition A automatically updates to position 5 as well.

  • Ties in ordering: If multiple mood images in the same edition end up with the same position number, the system automatically falls back to alphabetical sorting based on the image's file name.

Can a mood image have an independent position per edition?

It is currently not possible to assign independent order positions to the same image across different editions.
