Create search links for biggest, most rated, etc.?
 
For an updated (current) version of PP, is it possible to create links that function similar to how the "Display Options" box at the bottom of your demo page here: Toys that Go - PhotoPost Photo Gallery works?

For example, I want to have a link titled "Most Ratings" and then it lists the images within all categories, and orders them from most ratings to least? Similar to if someone used those "Display Options" settings, but all working by only clicking a text link?

If it is possible, can you give me what the link should look like?

And can you also give what it would look like if I wanted it for filesize (decending), and latest comment.

If this isn't possible, I would like to request this functionality put back into PP. To me, it made PP feel more flexible, as I could create links to different results that I wanted to link my visitors to. I really liked it, and took full advantage of it. (as seen in the header of my http://www.krankr.com site.)

Thanks for any help you can provide on creating these types of links in the current version of PP.

You can create whatever type of mods you want and post for mod help in the mods forums not support ;)

We do not arbitrary do get requests through urls anymore in the software because it is not a good security measure. Luckily we typecast our variables to prevent against instrusion but for most things we do post forms so stuff can not be played with by bots.

Just like you do the search stuff I responded to in another thread you would create the url format with whatever values you are trying. You need to view the page source to see what the option names are and the values and then do the proper url structure the values are very specific. I am not going to post up the several hundred different combinations there could be. The basic structure might look something like this.
