[Resolved] Recent Table not in Descending order as it should be
This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
Recent Table not in Descending order as it should be
Solution:
There is third-party plugin "Post Type Order" installed on users site that was overriding the view's order setting. Disabling the "Post Type Order" help user to resolve the issue.
I am trying to:
To show the last recent additons on the Site
The Table shows the last 50 but not in order...I want the most recent then the older next...etc. Descending. I adjusted the Table this way & the View & the inserted code by Descending by Date but not doing that.
Link to a page where the issue can be seen: hidden link
The above is for the public (not logged in)....but the SAME issue in this page for logged in also who has Post Group Access Control hidden link
I expected to see:
Ordered Descendingly by date the most recent in the top, next the older then the older...etc.
Instead, I got:
Recent but not ordered by date...random.
I've tried to bring the Debug information but the page is blank.
well - only database will not help as you have a number of third-party plugins installed so we need to check with its existence and without assistance. In addition to that, you are also using WPML plugin. We need 1:1 clone of your site.
Ok - thank you. I'm not that much familiar with UpDraft but I will try to download the database you shared and plugins. I will get in touch with you as soon as I have something to share.
I downloaded the database sql file you shared and I will try to install it on my local test install using command prompt as file is too big.
I tried to download the plugin and theme files from UpDraft but unfortunately either it downloading breaks in the middle or when I try to extract it, it says its corrupted file. Its not working for me. I tried to download it couple of times but unfortunately, I do not get success.
Could you please upload plugin and theme file zip on google drive and send me the link to download it.
I have set the next reply to private which means only you and I have access to it.
Million thanks for your efforts. hidden link
I've compressed the Themes & Plugins and another mu-plugin I don't know what is it...sorry I'm not a developer but can understand somethings...so I included it.
Is this going to be enough for you?
The issue with ordering is, you have installed the third-party plugin "Post Type Order" and that plugin overrides the view's order you set. If you disable the "Post Type Order" plugin, view order just works fine.
The issue is not from Toolset but from Post Type Order" plugin. Could you please try to disable is for moment and confirm the view's order works for you.
Okay it's resolved now after deactivating this plugin.
But we want to use it alos for our site has a lot of posts need to be ordered...please tell us how to skip this overridance?
Well, I suggest, you should contact the "Post Type Order" plugin support or author in order to know how you can resolve this issue as the issue is not from Toolset.
