Hello,

I have two custom taxonomy created with CPT.

The first taxonomy hasn’t problem, so the sort works perfectly. The error is with the second taxonomy.

I have sort alphabetically the taxonomy and move the term “Altro” as the last of the list ( see the screenshot below)

But in the ACF Frontend Admin doesn’t affect this sort

I have noticed that the plugin sort only 18 terms but the terms should be 76.

Have you some ideas or advice?

Looked for a solution and found compatibility with the jetsmartfilters plugin! Just want to mention it here for future searchers!

Hi, so I’ve been struggling with an issue where the order (set with this plugin) of Product Categories changes to random after using Sort By Woocommerce filters. Why is this happening? My theme author, who helped me with this issue, basically said that the only option is to disable your plugin and set a specific order with CSS.

The issue did not seem to appear when we did not use Sort By plugins for product archive.

Talking about it with Woocommerce here when my theme author said it’s a Woocommerce issue. Turns out it shouldn’t be.

Link to e-shop. NB! This plugin is currently disabled as it was causing issues.

Hi There,

The sorting feature of this plugin doesn’t seem to work on the tags in the standard posts. I have applied this to the CPT and they work, but these news-releases are not sort by year.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi, just want to ask how can I create sticky tags? For example, I want to make three specific tags appear always at the front order regardless of any new tags created. Currently when user create new tags while posting, the newly assigned tags will stay at the front.

Regards.

Hello, I have a page in which i placed a menu ITEM, that contains a CATEGORY of courses (TUTOR LMS) and they appear in the order in which they were created. I want them to be sorted ALPHABETICALLY. I installed the plugin but they remain in the same order.

Hi there,

I have 3 languages: NO, EN, SE on one of my client’s websites

Some tag names are same in NO and SE but the slugs are different. Would it be possible to see the slugs as well?

The reason I am asking:

I was ordering tags and because I use polylang they were all seen on the tag list.

I have accidentally changed the tag language order when changing the order of tags themselves, therefore my query loops pulling out related posts by tags were not working on one of the languages properly.

So for example:

My tag order was NO, EN, SE but after changing the order of the tags I did a mistake and had them in SE, EN, NO which caused issues. I have reordered tags to follow the language sequence and everything went back to normal.

Thanks,

I’m using your plugin in combination with JetSmartFilters by Crocoblock. This JetSmartFilters plugin enables me to use a checkbox filters widget on my shop page ( https://vulwol.nl/shop/ ).

This checkbox filter is using regular products tags as output. I want to be able to sort those tags manually, instead of the default alphabetically. Unfortunately, sorting the tags is not a default function within that Crocoblock plugin, and that is where your plugin comes in. It’s being shared in this Github forum too, as being the solution.

Now, all seems to be working well. I can get the manual sorting to work on the back-end and also within the Elementor page builder view, the manual sorting is being shown. However, on the frontend it is still the default sorting.

I would love your help on fixing this, as I do not know what is going wrong here.

Thanks in advance.

It seems it doesnt work with wpgridbuilder. I added a facet and chose to order by term order. Then used this plugin to organize things. But didn’t work

I have a problem with the plugin: if a post has multiple categories (3 hierarchical categories in my case [mainCat > SubCat1 > SubCat2]) when I write via php the list of terms associated with the post, the plugin sorts the taxonomies but ignores the hierarchy (so I have for example Subcat2, mainCat, Subcat1).
Is it possible to overcome this inconvenience?

Ty in advance

I’m trying to sort the global product attributes using your plugin but it doesn’t work. Here’s a video I created showing I’m able to sort the product attributes, but the customization doesn’t show on the site.

I have a suggestion. You can put the “Term order” menu as a submenu under Settings or Tools. Since such tweaks do not need to be done every day, it is okay if it is not always in front of your eyes.

thanks for this nice plugin.

Critical Error received when trying to order the terms for product categories.

Hi,

I am contacting you about a WordPress plugin called “Term Order”. The tool is fantastic, very useful and intuitive to use. However, I have one problem that I cannot solve on my own. When sorting items of 100, 200, 400, everything works fine. However, on my website there are several items that contain several thousand records, e.g. the names of all passenger car models, another all the names of motorcycle models. When you try to open them in the “Term Order” plugin, they do not load, the page loads endlessly, which makes sorting and setting the order impossible. I don’t know if it’s the fault of WordPress, the template I use or the plugin. Perhaps it is enough to increase some parameter of the query length, response length or timeout and this will solve the problem. I recorded a video showing the problem and inappropriate behavior of the website page.

I would like to ask for your opinion, comments, is there any way I can fix the operation of the plugin? I need to sort all items, records. Thank you very much for your help and answer.

Thomas

Hello there,

I have a Custom Post Type with different taxonomies associated. I’m showing the posts in the front end using a custom WP_Query and I want the user to decide which taxonomy to use for ordering the posts. I set the front end environment (dropdown, GET variable, ecc.) but I don’t understand what value I have to use with the “orderby” parameter in the WP_Query function.
I read the FAQ but I didn’t get it, I’m sorry. Is there anyone who can help? Thank you.

I have cities terms that include thousands of city when I want to order by name it’s loading for long time. Is there any option I can set all my terms by name alphabetically as I can set it alphabetically by default but only with the terms that I have sort in range but in case of thousands terms when I go to set it alphabetically it’s loading and can’t see the option at the bottom as it is loading too much. All I want set all terms alphabetically with one click not after going to those specific terms and set it particularly as it is not possible to go at the bottom those terms order that have thousands of entry.

Do you have any statement on how this stores data in the database?

ie Which tables, which keys, whether it tidies up after itself upon deletion etc

Thanks.

Hello there,

I hope you are doing well.

I have an ecommerce website with more than 2700 product cats. Is it possible to update their order alphabetically in bulk instead of going into one by one parent and sub parent categories?

Also, after I do that new ordering, I would like to have it also on the database. Not just working on the frontend or backend. Is this possible?

Thanks in advance,

George.

Hello,

I am very happy with the functionalities of this plugin. However I am investigating why my site has very low performance, and I realized that it is one of the villains making my page very slow.

If I deactivate the plugin I gain 10% or more in performance for mobile and desktop according to page speed.

Another issue is that I once I deactivate the plugin for these tests I LOST all my custom ordering…. In general I activate and deactivate plugins without loosing what was built with them…

Is there a way to solve / work around that?

Thank you

Hello Team,

I am using the Book Your Travel theme and I am trying to create calendar that sorts tours by month, from January to December. I activated your plugin and in the backend everything is ok, but in the frontend it doesn’t work as i expected.

I have in turn edited the file in the theme that is responsible for this as per your descriptions in the plugin docs, but there wasn’t result.

function get_taxonomy_terms_array($taxonomy_type) {
                $terms = get_terms( array(
                        'taxonomy' => $taxonomy_type,
                        'orderby' => 'term_order',
                        'order' => 'ASC',
                        'hide_empty' => 0
                ) );

Could you help me, please.

Hello!
I can see only about 20-30 values in a single attribute while adding new product, no more. While there are 100 of it. Where should I edit the quantity of visible values?

Hi if I select ” Custom Order as defined above.” and then change the order of the terms, after I click ‘update order’, the terms are switched to a random order.

We are using your plugin:- Custom Taxonomy Order

we want to know if your plugin is compatible with PHP 8.1 or not.

We would love to know ASAP.

Hi – I have a 3 tiered custom taxonomy and for one parent term, it just will not save the custom order. I read a couple of other posts on this and see it is somewhat resolved with version 3.4.4, which I have installed. I’m wondering if I can provide you with additional detail. The interesting thing is that it’s working with all other parent terms in this taxonomy. It’s just one in particular that just doesn’t seem to want to save.

Hi!

Not 100% sure this is related to your plugin exactly, but our customer’s site was updated last night and today the woocommerce product cat archives were 404ing. This error was resolved after disabling your Custom Tax plugin.

Just wanted to let you know, in case it helps others!

Thanks,
Alex

Hi –

My spouse is working on a series of translations of the Bible, and is using the custom order to sort the books in the standard English Bible order. Within each category, however, the books should be in alphanumeric order. I recognize that the set isn’t really designed for this, but we have been able to manually sort the sub-categories into alphanumeric order up until recently.

Now, for whatever reason, the plugin states that the order has been updated, but returns all the terms to the order they were in beforehand.

It only does this on certain books – Deuteronomy, for example – but it is certainly creeping into more places.

Any ideas on what we should do to fix this?

Dear Support,

I want to change the order of my property categories (on [ redundant link removed ] > Search bar > “Subrubrieken”).

I cannot find these categories in the plugin. What should I do?

Thanks in advance!

Kind Regards,

After updating to version 3.4.3, we’ve experienced a major slow down when visiting Products in the WP dashboard – leading to a 20-30 second load time.

After significant troubleshooting, we’ve rolled back to 3.4.2 to resolve this.

Please let me know if you have any thoughts about why this might have occurred and a possible fix?

I’ve made a blank site using Twenty Twenty One theme with the following category structure

Level 1 A
-Level 2 C
–Level 3 E
—Level 4 G
—-Level 5 I
—–Level 6 K
—–Level 6 L
—-Level 5 J
—Level 4 H
–Level 3 F
– Level 2 D

I changed each category to show subcategories. I assigned a product to each category.

I then went into the Term Order plugin and went through each level changing the order. I also set the taxonomy to use the custom order set above.

It worked until I was editing Level 4 – then my order changing in the Term Order plugin did not take effect. It did not take effect on level 5 either.

Changing the order of the categories worked on level 1, 2 and 3.

The only plugins I have activated are Woocommerce, Custom Taxonomy Order and ACF.
