Photos resized to lower quality are not sorted by original date

Good point. Although the simple answer may be that no matter when you create a copy of a photo (in my case making it smaller), the original metadata is maintained, but the new photo is sorted by today's date, not the original one.

Attached photos of the shortcut. I honestly don't understand exactly how it works. I invoke it by bringing up a photo in photos, this shortcut appears in the list under the icon with the square and the up pointing arrow. I run this shortcut, I get a pop-up window that says "What image quality do you want? followed by the three options. I chose one, then I get that same popup and given the option to save, print, etc. I then save it back to photos. It appears as new photo, all the original metadata is there, including the original date/time the photo was taken, but it appears as the most recent photo. What I'm trying to do is maintain the original date/time so it sorts in the proper place. Then I can delete the original, e.g., 3MB is replaced by the much smaller file but it stays with all the other photos from that day.

Thanks. That did the trick. Appreciate your help.
