I am trying to sort some results of a view ordered by a field of type number or text adding a 1 for the ones I want to appear first and a default 0 for the others.
I have saved all the posts and in the list of fields I get 0 or 1, depending on what I have indicated in the field. What happens is that when I indicate that it is ordered by this customized field, it does nothing.
Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.
Can you please share problem URL and admin access details and let me see whats going wrong with your setup.
*** Please make a FULL BACKUP of your database and website.***
I would also eventually need to request temporary access (WP-Admin) to your site. Preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible in order to be of better help and check if some configurations might need to be changed.
I have set the next reply to private which means only you and I have access to it.
The issue was that you added the view using the view's widget to your Elementor template:
-hidden link
There you added another sorting field that was causing the issue under the view widget section "Reemplazar la configuración básica de la view" I have removed that field and I can see now its working as expected.
Can you please confirm it works at your end as well.
I will replicate your step by step on the original website to fix the problem.
Also I am running into a similar problem that has no order marked from widget, only from Toolset.
Within each study there is a table that is created with Toolset. The table is also not displayed sorted by the parameters indicated in the secondary order which would be menu order.
How can I show it with the order that is indicated in the repeatable fields to create the table?
