Change K2 Caegory Default Sorting was created by Sarah Allen
Hi there,
I would like to change the default sorting of K2 Categories.
Currently, the categories are displaying alphabetically and I would like to have it so they are sorted by Category ID all through the site.
Can anyone please tell me which K2 files I need to edit to modify the default sorting for both the front and back ends of my site.
Thanks in advance,
Sarah

You can reorder your categories in the backend using the drag n' drop interface.

Thanks for getting back to me Krikor. I have tried reordering my categories using this feature, but it does not seem to be working correctly.

When I move the parent category, the sub categories do not move with it and if I move all the parent categories to where I want them and refresh the page they've just reordered themselves into the random order.

Could there be a small glitch with my K2 installation?

Thanks,
Sarah

UPDATE: After spending some time this morning reordering my categories, I finally got them to stay in the correct order using the drag and drop feature. It took several goes of reordering the same categories and once I got those to stick, some of the others moved incorrectly and I had several more goes at reordering them and finally the changes seem to have stuck.
I have never had this problem before, normally I just change the order and it applies and I'm done.
I hope that these changes stick from now on as it's been a nightmare to get them in my preferred order.
Thanks for your help,
Sarah
