PHP sort images list by name and modified date ascending and descending order

To sort images in a directory by name and modified date in both ascending and descending order, you can use the scandir or glob function along with usort in PHP. Here are examples of how you can do this:

Sort by Name (Ascending):

$files = glob('path/to/your/images/*.{jpg,jpeg,png}', GLOB_BRACE);
sort($files);

Sort by Name (Descending):

$files = glob('path/to/your/images/*.{jpg,jpeg,png}', GLOB_BRACE);
rsort($files);

Sort by Modified Date (Ascending):

$files = glob('path/to/your/images/*.{jpg,jpeg,png}', GLOB_BRACE);
usort($files, function($a, $b) {
    return filemtime($a) - filemtime($b);
});

Sort by Modified Date (Descending):

$files = glob('path/to/your/images/*.{jpg,jpeg,png}', GLOB_BRACE);
usort($files, function($a, $b) {
    return filemtime($b) - filemtime($a);
});

These code snippets will sort all the images with extensions .jpg, .jpeg, and .png in the specified directory by their names and modified dates in both ascending and descending order. You can modify the path to match your image directory.
