In the file:
I added the following to the supports array: ‘page-attributes’
Now users will see an “order by” field in an attributes box.
To use this field, one must then create a archive template in their theme called archive-fancy-gallery.php
Then in that file have the following code, best of luck:
<?php
/**
* The template for displaying Archive pages.
*
* Learn more: http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Template_Hierarchy
*
* @package YOURTHEMNAME
*/
get_header(); ?>

<div id="content" class="site-content" role="main">
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : ?>
<?php /* Start the Loop */
$count_portf = 0;
?>
<div class="row">
<?PHP $posts = query_posts($query_string . '&orderby=menu_order&order=asc&posts_per_page=-1'); ?>
<?php while (have_posts()) : the_post();
// The following determines what the post format is and shows the correct file accordingly
echo "<div class='col-md-4'>";
$format = get_post_format();
//get_template_part( 'post-formats/'.$format );
