 * I read the thread about ordering members and tried changing the posted dates 
   of each member to sort them in the order I want and it doesn’t seem to have any
   effect. They’re still being listed in the order I entered them.
 * For a future enhancement, can I suggest that an option to use the Attributes 
   Sort order be added to the short code, and be able to do reverse sort as well?
 * I want to thank you for writing this plug in. It handles just about everything
   I needed except for the sort. I’m using it to list the members of our old house
   club. I put the year of their house in the Attributes Sort field, and I would
   like to list them in the order of oldest house to newest.

 * Are you trying to order the “mtphr_members_archive” shortcode? If so you can 
   use the following attributes:
 * `[mtphr_members_archive order="DESC" orderby="date"]`
 * By default this is set to orderby menu_order and descending. So, you can order
   the posts using the Order field in the Attributes metabox.
 * I would suggest installing this plugin [https://wordpress.org/plugins/cms-tree-page-view/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/cms-tree-page-view/)
   to make manual ordering much easier by using a drag/drop method.
