I am using Joomla 1.5.18, k2 v. 2.3

Check the work in progress on this page: www.golfdesign.info/usp/

There is a category chooser in the sidebar (using mod_k2_tools), but in the settings of this module the options is set up in a strange way so that the drop-down list has no options for display order.Has anyone been able to get the category drop-down sorted in reverse order?I.e. I would like to have No 26, No 25 etc.

Wow - that is unusual for this community! No answers?

Hi Svein, there is no option to sort the category.

Either a feature request would need to be submitted or make a mod to the module.
If you choose the second option, you could copy/modify the code used to sort the Category List for use with the Category Select Box.

Sorry, its not the answer your looking for at the moment.

Well, it is actually a good idea, so I'll try to take a look. But as I am not a programmer, I might create a mess of it :-D

Thanks anyway.

And here is the solution. Warning: This is a hack of core files so it will be overwritten in an upgrade!

As it is a bit difficult to display code here, I wrote it up on mu blog instead. Take a look here:

Svien,

Nice work again, I will flag this as a feature request.
