Hi,

I'm trying to understand why my View Query ordering is not working.

Here is what it says:
Filter
This View selects Post Title, ordered by post title, ascending

Could you please help me sort this out? Is there something I should look for?

I've tried using other "order by" choices, and I haven't seen it put it in a different order yet

Hi Robin

Are you just trying to produce a View with fixed ordering (the results should always display in this order) or are you talking about adding ordering controls so that users can change the order from the front-end?

For the former your View settings should look like the screenshot.

The latter is described here: https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/allowing-visitors-to-sort-the-front-end-results/

Can you give some more details about how your View is set up and clarify what you are trying to do?
