Hi Federico,

Thank you for getting in touch.

Are you referring to the backend table that is generated when you create the relationship ? If so then you can't reorder it permanently but if you click the columns you can order the table by that column.

Please let me know if this helps.
Thanks,
Shane

yes I would like to change the order of the products in the report. Can I use the same order in the custom post list?

Hi Federico,

I'm a little unsure of the entire scope. However on the backend table on your product you can reorder the items temporarily.

However i'm not sure what you mean by "products in the report". What is generating this report ?

I need a little more information in order to ensure that i'm providing the correct information.

Thanks,
Shane

Hi,
sorry I wrote wrong.
I meant the products in the relationship: products-> collection.
From the relations I can't order them. correct? can I use the (general) order of the custom post products?
thanks

Hi Federico,

Sill not 100% sure of the context that you are referring. However the only place you can re-order the products are :

1. On the backend template with the relationship table. See Screenshot. It should be noted that this is temporary and only affects the backend. See Screenshot

Clicking any of the column names like my example will sort the Posts.

2. On the frontend if you are using a view to display the related posts. Otherwise from these two locations i'm not aware of anywhere else where they can be sorted.

Thanks,
Shane

hi, shane,
this is my context to which I refer (screenshot). Custom Post "Collections" with related "products".
For example I would like "Gotham SL" to appear first in related products.

Hi Federico,

Thank you for the clarity.

Apart from the column sorting that is available, there isn't another way to sort this.

The column is sorted alphabetically so its not going to be possible for the "Gotham SL" to appear first.

Thanks,
Shane

in my opinion it is a function to add.
