Hello,

Following Example: I am using K2 with extra-Fields. There is a field named "obst". Following Options are in alphabetical order entered in it:

Apfel
Erdbeere
Grapefruit
Weintraube

There are articles still using these field and this options.
Now i want to enter a new option called "Banane".

So the options are shown in following order:

Apfel
Erdbeere
Grapfruit
Weintraube
Banane

But i want to have again an alphabetical order like this:

Apfel
Banane
Erdbeere
Grapfruit
Weintraube

This is because of an clarity in the backend and a clarity because of using "Filter For K2" - which is showing the options of each field in a frontend-filter.

If I would move all options after "B" one position down and would put "Banane" in second position I think, it would mix up the correct fields using with the articles already. Am I right? (articles with option "Erdbeere" (second position before) will become "Banane" (new second position)

I would be very happy if someone could give me an advice.
Thanks a lot.
Frank

Hello,

Unfortunately in the current version, extra-fields cannot be ordered from the backend.

Hi,

I really want this option also ! It's so useful and logical to have the possibility to order ASC or DSC the dropdown list choice. There's no module or SQL syntax that we can use temporaly before the next upgrade that will include this option ?

Thank you very much !

It is stored in JSON format in the DB. You can manually change it (be VERY careful and backup).

Now we would love hear feedback on this for the new version.

Hi Krikor,
thanks for the information how it could be ordered.

Hopefully this will be a feature in a next release.

Best
Frank
