How can I arrange a specific order that my portfolio items show up in under the portfolio index? Currently it seems to work by date. I would like to choose an order.

Thanks.

There is a great plugin that I have used that might help it is not a supported plugin by X but it is pretty simple so should work. The plugin is called Metronet Reorder Posts – https://wordpress.org/plugins/metronet-reorder-posts/ let me know if this works.

SOLVED:

I edited portfolio.php

I added the following term (orderby) into the code:

$args = array(
‘post_type’ => ‘x-portfolio’,
‘orderby’ => ‘menu_order’,
‘posts_per_page’ => $count,
‘paged’ => $paged
);

} else {

$args = array(
‘post_type’ => ‘x-portfolio’,
‘posts_per_page’ => $count,
‘orderby’ => ‘menu_order’,
‘paged’ => $paged,
‘tax_query’ => array(
array(

now the portfolio index displays by the order selected in the plugin

Hi,
just bumped into this topic and thought I could share two small notes:

1) the php file is actually “_portfolio.php” rather than “portfolio.php” (that is another, different, file)
2) right below this line: 'orderby' => 'menu_order', I’ve also added the following line:
'order' => 'ASC',
to have an ordering of the portfolio items matching the ones that are showing on the mentioned plugin above.

Hope this can help 🙂

Hello !

This plugin does not work either, and I’m not too confortable changing the file.
On what line should I add the code given ?

Could you please help ??

Thanks !

Hello ! Actually I noticed that the plugin you advised is not very well ranked.
The plugin Intuitive Custom Post Order is actually better ranked with a lot of 5 stars evaluations.
I’ve just tested it, it works great and intuitively ! Just drag and drop the portfolio items in the order you wish !

Hi there,

We only recommended the plugin but as we don’t provide support for third party plugins we didn’t guarantee if it was going to work or not.

We are glad that you found appropriate plugin now.

Thanks.

Hi!

I’ve edited the _portfolio.php-file in x/framework/views/global without any result. I’ve also tried it with two different plugins for menu sorting, including Intuitive Custom Post Order. It seems like they’re correct in the panel, but doesn’t go through on the page. Might do some difference, but I’m working on a portfolio category /portfolio-item-category/special/
Can you help me here?

Cheers!
