Advanced Sidebar Category Menu – Display menu items by creation date

Resolved

Requested: 3 years and 6 months ago

Hey Matt,

We have just noticed a error on one of our client sites which we suspect is our configuration but we are wondering if you could provide some clarity/direction to achieve the display of categories items in creation date order of display rather than what looks to be alphabetic.

I’ll create a video as sometimes I think its clear to explain situation;

Hi Cain,

Currently the ordering options are for categories and do not affect the order of posts. There is a task logged to add options for ordering of the displayed posts as well, but it has not been added to an active sprint yet so I don’t have a release date available.

In the meantime, you may adjust the order of the displayed posts by adding the following filter to your active theme’s functions.php file:

<?php add_filter( 'advanced-sidebar-menu-pro/walker/display-posts/get-post-args', function ( $args ) { $args['orderby'] = 'date'; return $args; } );

Have a great day!

Mat Lipe
