Due to that I suggest to consolidate our discussion threads.
I close my post and refer to that thread, which is trying to solve the problem:

You are right. But I have three categories and no one inherits from any other. Is it possible to order articles from one category 'Most recent first' on your system? Lars

I have exactly the same problem - sort of....

My items are appearing in Most Recent first then oldest last.

Look at

links dont work on these posts - look here www.knowledgecommunity.co.uk

first item appears on the left was the latest one I created, and yet look at the order in the Joomla list here.
Anyone know why no matter how I change this order around its always the same:




thanks

Forget it, should have read the full post here - missed the obvious para - you set the way you want the items ordered in the category item ordering dropdown.... all now fine

Thank you Lars. This was doing my head in for hours. I did the same and got it to sort properly. Be nice if this bug was fixed.

Lars said:Hi Lefteris, thanks for your hint.
This works fine, when I choose two or more categories in the menu. But it has no effect, when just one category is chosen.
But as a workaround I just made an empty dummy category, which I choose in addition to the relevant category. Then I can choose 'Most recent first' in the menu parameters.

Thanks again for your help!

Hi. If you select only one category then you have to change the parameter in the category edit page.

Nope, tried this for at least 3 hours. Did not work.

It should work. Please check that you are using the latest version of K2. Also try to clean Joomla! cache if it is enabled. Finally if nothing else works try to enable debug mode to take a look at the queries.
