# List elements order doesn’t work

 * Hi, 
   I’m using the free version of your plugin and I would like to reverse the
   order in which the list elements are shown compared to the one in which they 
   were inserted, i.e.: the last element inserted in the backoffice must appear 
   as the first in the frontend list.
 * I’m using this shortcode, but changing “ASC” to “DESC” doesn’t change the display
   order of the items.
 * [qcopd-directory mode=”one” style=”simple” list_id=”2897″ orderby=”menu_order”
   order=”DESC”]
 * Can you help me please?

 * Hi,
 * Your shortcode parameter is not correct to order the List items. The orderby 
   parameter is to order the Lists – not the List items. Please use the Shortcode
   generator and select the List Item Order by option. Check the plugin’s Help page
   to understand how to access the Shortcode Generator.
 * You can regenerate your shortcode from the edit page. Here you will find all 
   the options for how to change list and item order. You can check using ID, title,
   Date Modified. Please check our screenshots below for more info.

 * Hi, thank you for answering.
   Is there any way to set item_orderby=”menu_order”
   and order=”ASC”?Maybe with some functions.php snippet?
