How to use the Sort Images Function
The sort images function will allow you to re-order the images on your products based on their file name, alt text, or linked variants. You can also change the position of a specific image based on the images file name, alt text, linked variants or current position.

Sorting images based on image attributes
We can sort images on the products based on some image attributes. For example, I have a product with 3 images, and each image contains their corresponding color in the image file name.
In this case, I would like to re-order the images so that the blue shirt is first, the orange shirt is second, and the red shirt is last. For this, we will use the Sort images by file name function, and specify the values in the file name that we would like to sort by. In the screenshot below, any image containing the word "blue" in the file name would be first, then "orange", and lastly "red".
After the task is complete, we can see that the images have been re-ordered as desired.
Moving images to a specific position
The app can also move an image to a specific position. Let's move the blue shirt so that it becomes the last image in the gallery.
We can use the Move images to specific positions function to tell the app to move the image that is currently in the first position to the last position.
After the task finishes, you can see that the blue shirt, which was previously in the first position, has now been moved to the last position in the gallery.
