Category list order

  • I’ve seen that one can order of categories in the category list by name (alphabetical) or bycategory ID number using the line “<?php list_cats(0, ‘All’, ‘ID’); ?>”. Is it possible to sort the list in an order I want (such as by ID number 1,2,6,4, 5)? Thanks!

    I’ll take another stab at asking this question–is it possible to order the category list in a defined order rather than alphabetically or by category ID number? Thanks!

    How do you change the order of the Category listing in the menu?
    Thanks

    At the moment, by name or by ID is the only way (at least as far as 1.2 goes, 1.3 might be different).
    There have been a number of suggestions, the one people seem to go with most often is to add spaces to the front of the category name (html browsers ignore multiple spaces, that’s why this works). To get it higher in the list, add more spaces to the front of the cat title.

    Works in Category List in admin.
    But how do you change the order of listing in the menu on the front page?
    Thanks

    OK figured this out – RTFM (list_cats).
    Duhhh….
