Sometimes it shows the wrong order on the back end but right one on the front end.
if manually sorted they should show the same order. Else the dashboard shows the same order as your post table.
Also, it is not showing all posts in a category. It is only showing 14/16 posts ut in one of my categories.
it will only show published posts, are all 16 published?
lastly, I would like to request sorting by not only in category archives but also in custom taxonomy archives.
that’s already the case. Enable sorting in the settings page

Yes, they are all published. All 16 posts. Here’s what it looks like on the sort page: https://wmweblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/reorder-1.png 4 of the posts look like duplicates, but they are really not and they don’t share the same name either, it only looks like it on this page. It only displays 13 posts when I active “Use manual sorting..”

Oh, that’s great! I thought I had looked for that already.

Well, now I tried to sort a new taxonomy. Looked like it worked well but I notice that it now think 2 of these posts are duplicates as well. https://wmweblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09/reorder-2.png And it only shows 18/19 posts
And when I check back the order is messed up on the back end again (like in the screenshot) but on the front end, the order is like I set it only with a missing post.
I tried to change the order one more time and then it changed another post to a duplicate. So it seems to make one additional post a duplicate every time I change the order.

There are 16 posts on the screenshot, are you saying the last 4 are wrong?

where? on the front page? Can you get in touch by email on vrata at syllogic dot in

odd, that was an issue in the beta testing which I tought had been fixed. I will test some more and come back to you on this.
thanks for your reports
Ok, I found a bug in the js script on the admin page which caused the issue of missing post.
I just released 2.0.1. In this new release, I delete any previously stored ranks from version 2 of the plugin (which are buggy) and reload the ranks from the custom table used in v1.x.
So any changes to your ranks you made in v2 will be lost.
Please let me know if this fixes the issue of missing posts.
Hey, amazing. This fixes the issue. I will surely donate 🙂
However, the sorting on the backend is still not saved, so if I want to make 1 small change I need to order the entire list again. (on the backend sorting page).

damn! That shouldn’t be the case. Can you send me a screenshot of the backend and give me the link to the front-end page of posts so I can compare the orders
I was just taking screenshots and noticed that the backend order is reverse of the default backend order in WP. It shows the oldest posts first instead of the newest posts on top like in dashboard elsewhere.
I can grab screenshots if you still need’em.

ok, so this is what it should be for posts of terms of taxonomy that are not yet manually sorted.
For those terms which posts that have already been sorted it should show the manually sorted order.
can you confirm?
Yes, now that works fine and unsorted categories are sorted like that by date.
I noticed a new issue though. When I drag the bar to show more than 20 posts it is very bouncy adding and removing too many posts as I drag it. When at max it does not show all the posts. Missing 1 or two from categories with 36 – 55 posts. A setting to show all posts by default would be great for me but I don’t know if that is a good solution.

thanks, that’s something I ought to fix, it does not actually stop using the slide bar, but it is still annoying. Will fix.

strange! I tried this again on my test server and I can see all the posts when I drag the range slider all the way till the end. Are you sure you are counting only published posts?

I thought about this, but reading around I noticed that the sorting (drag & drop) js plugin struggles with more than 300 items in the sort list. Furthermore WP does not recommend working with posts sets greater than 100 to ensure best performance. 100 cards means that you have a grid of 10×10, do you feel that you could sort large grids? It would require a lot scrolling too.
btw, have you noticed that you can remove posts fro the grid and send to the strat or end of the ranking order? (read screenshot 2 for more details)
quick update:
Yes, now that works fine and unsorted categories are sorted like that by date.
are the 2 issues you initially raised fixed?
I would like to mark this thread as resolved and ask you to open a new thread for new issues. Like the issue about dragging the slider, that should go into a different thread for others to find it easily.
are the 2 issues you initially raised fixed?
Yes, those issues are fixed. Thanks again.
ok, so I will mark this as resolved.
PS: I just released v2.1.1 with a fix for the slider range.
