Advanced Top Menu Category Order

[stuffedhippo]

Hope someone can help. Great module but...

 

When adding a category item group and including all sub categories the order of the subcategories have no relation to the order of the sub categories in the PS Catalog Tab. It seems to randomly order them, ie not but alphabetically or by PS Catalog Tab ID or by Advanced Top Menu ID. Also if I bring in the sub categories individually in the list Advanced Top Menu still reorders them!!!!

 

Can anyone shed light on this?

 

Thanks

have the same problem here. seems like the dev forgot to add an ordering option.

I already modified it for the manufacturers (same problem)

perhaps you should contact the dev?

Do you have any more news on this? Really need to buy this module but if I can't reorganise then I shan't buy.

Actually, the dev did something about it: they added a position column in the database table. Unfortunately, there is no interface in the admin to actually sort the categories.

 

Anyway, I think it's the wrong approach: the categories are already sorted. I changed the code to use the categories order:

 

In AdvancedTopMenuElementsClass.php, line 171, replace:

 

ORDER BY ate.`position`';

with

ORDER BY ca.`position`';
