    Hi, please I need help. There should be a code to add to the functions.php that sorts the posts alphabetically in the front-end. But I cant find it.

    I found a code but it has 2 problems. It sorts only one category and it seems to have a bug, I can’t add any more code (error).

    Thanks four your answers!

    function modify_query_for_categories( $query ) {
    if ( $query->is_category('info-a-z') ) {
    $query->set( 'orderby', 'title' ); // es soll nach dem Titel sortiert werden
    $query->set( 'order', 'ASC' ); // die Sortierung soll alphabetisch sein
    $query->set( 'posts_per_page', '25' ); // es sollen 25 Beiträge angezeigt werden
    }
    }

    add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'modify_query_for_categories' );

    Thanks I saw both of them. The first link revers to the cathegory.php and the plugins mentioned in the second are too old.

    The first link doesn’t just refer to category.php though. Read through it again. A theme’s category.php is just built off index.php, which it sounds like maybe is the template you want to edit (if you only want to alphabetize the blog/front page).

    Have you created a child theme? That might be the best way to start going about these sorts of changes on specific screens.

    Yes, I have a child theme. And sorry, I still can’t find what code to add to the functiond.php. Can you please copy the code in your answer, thank you.

    if you want to sort the post in the posts page and all archive pages, including search result, try this code:

    function posts_sort_alphabetical( $query ) {
    if ( is_admin() || ! $query->is_main_query() )
        return;
 
        $query->set( 'orderby', 'title' );
        $query->set( 'order', 'ASC' );
        return;
    
}
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'posts_sort_alphabetical', 1 );

    “K” is still before “F”

    what theme are you using?

    what is the full code of the theme’s index.php file?

    This is the index.php – but it is not in the child theme now

    <?php
    /**
    * The main template file.
    *
    * This is the most generic template file in a WordPress theme
    * and one of the two required files for a theme (the other being style.css).
    * It is used to display a page when nothing more specific matches a query.
    * E.g., it puts together the home page when no home.php file exists.
    *
    * @package Fluida

    get_header();
    ?>
    <div id="container" class="<?php echo fluida_get_layout_class(); ?>">
    <main id="main" role="main" class="main">
    <?php cryout_before_content_hook(); ?>

    <?php if ( have_posts() ) : ?>

    <div id="content-masonry" class="content-masonry" <?php cryout_schema_microdata( 'blog' ); ?>>
