Ordering : K2 doesn't care was created by Django

Hi

I selected "Ordering" for all my Category view options/item ordering, and Subcategory handling/Sub-category ordering

Then I put my items in order

Then, in frontend nothing is as I wanted ...

Cache empty ... and brain too.

???

What is your menu item's structure?

I go to my items in 2 ways :

Mainmenu => A link to the blog of all categories
For each category displayed in the blog => a link "Read more" to each blog of each category

Topmenu : a direct link to each category
(for each each menu link "Item ordering" : Ordering.)

By both ways, the items are not as I reorderd them in the K2 admin.

Are you using K2's latest version? Also which version of Joomla! are you using?

It seems to work fine on your site.
I shuffled the items and they seem to work fine.
The only thing I changed is entered a value for the items columns and numbers in the categorys settings.

Thanks, but I don't understand what you did .

In the category setting, I had and I have :
Primary count : 4
Columns for primary : 2
Item ordering : Ordering

You had left these values for the leading, secondary and link items empty.

I didn't know I have to put something in these fields (0 ?) if I don't use them, and I want only the "primary" display.

Anyway, I re-tried to order my items with and without 0 in these fields : the ordering doesn't change.

I don't understand how it works.

0 for items and 1 for columns.
I tried the link in the mail you sent and I was able to drag n' drop and reorder the items.
You can see the changes in the front-end.

I'm sorry, but for ex in the first category "Chauffage" :

- I put, as you said, 0 count and 1 column for all except "Primary" : 4 / 2 in the layout grid tab.

- Then I order the items with drag and drop in the K2 items list of this category

- Then I empty the cache and go to the frontend : the items of this category are NOTdisplayed in the order I choosed in admin.

What are the ordering settings in the backend ?
Both the items, the category and the menu item.

For category "Ordering", for menu I do not know what do you mean.

I can send you admin access, I am sure it is the fastest and more rational way do do it.

What do you think?

THX in advance.

SAVED : I had an "Inherit parameter options from category" that I forgot...

Now it works.

In fact : Half saved.
(I'll become crazy with these categories ordering.)

When a category displays a list of sub-categories, how can we sort this list manually ?

The selection or "ordering" in the category parameters seems to be only for the items, not the sub-categories.

If you are comfortable with coding, you can load a custom mod_menu module with a different template to display your subcategories.

This coding probably exceeds my skills.
Unfortunately, because the list starting with the oldest categories is not wise.
