[Resolved] make the sticky field available in the backend custom posts view

1. I've made a sticky checkbox field to kunstwerken, so that if we select that checkbox from the backend, that kunstwerk will show in the view on the frontpage.

Now we have to go to the individual kunstwerk every time, to activate the checkbox.
Is there a way to show the checkbox in the list of posts, so that our webmaster can simply click to select the posts to show in the frontpage view? See image. (And if possible also the possibility to sort on that option)

2. On the same image in the top row you can see that the order of taxonomies is:

Titel Auteur Kunst Stijlen Kunstwerk Categorieën Datum

But i need Kunstwerk Categorieën to appear before Kunst Stijlen. (This also is wrong in the edit single kunstwerk page. We need the customer to FIRST select the Kunstwerk Categorieën and after that the Kunst Stijlen) I can't find where to change this order.

Thanks in advance!

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

There is no such option available to set or unset the post as sticky post from the custom post type listing page in admin.

You may try to find any third-party plugin that offer such feature or you will have to add such custom code to implement such feature.

Okay thanks,

And what about ordering the custom made categories/taxonomies? I need to change the order of the appearance in the backend, i'll attach an image

As I understand you want to change the order of the taxonomy boxes displayed on the post add/edit screen. If this is true - what if you drag and drop the taxonomy box in your desired order and then try to save the post and check if that help you to resolve your issue.

No sorry, can't drag and drop 🙁

On post edit screen I can see you can change the order of taxonomy boxes. That is the only possible solution. You may want to search for a plugin that offers feature that allow you to change the display order of the taxonomy boxes displayed on post add/edit screen.

Where do you see that? i can change the order for other boxes, but not for taxonomies.

Also when i click on quick edit in the post list, the taxonomies are not in the wished order. I believe i once saw a sorting option when creating taxonomies

See images.

You will have to edit post normally not using quick edit.

However - As shared there is no such feature available with Toolset to order taxonomy boxes, you will have to search for third party plugin or implement such custom code.

If you need any help with such custom code you are welcome to contact any of our certified partners:
