           Summary: order of images returned is not same as that of current
                    digikam view

            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Kipiinterface
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: dbera.web gmail com

The list of images returned to kipi plugins are sorted in the order in which they are stored in the database which _may_not_ be same as the current view order. This causes problem in some kipi plugins - like HTML export plugin in which frequently users would want to have the images sorted according to the date.

Either the kipi plugins could ask for a specific sort order which asking for the list of images or (by default) could return them in the same sorting order as in the current view.
