Wondering if there are any controls for ordering for tag menu items.

For that matter, where is the layout template found for a tag menu item.

Where are the params for tag menu item.

Thanks,

Ok, I found some of the params for Tag menu links, but don't see anything for order.

The Tag params are on the K2 Dashboard parameters link.

I'm still wondering how order is determined?

Agreed, it would be very nice to have the same control over tag layout as we do with categories.

You can change the tag layout somewhat by editing the generic.php template file. This view is used for the tag view and the author view.

I changed the ordering of the generic view in the code by changing the overall default ordering. To order them with the newest items at the top, in components/com_k2/models/itemlist.php I edited the section to set ordering. I changed the default (line 211 of my file) to:

default:
$orderby = 'i.created DESC';
break;

How would you change that code so the tag list order is alphabetical?

hi m8s

i had the same problem, the lack of ordering options.

So i made a quick-fix to work around the problem and now i can choose any order type.
