Missing categories in backoffice

  • Hello,

    The backoffice of my wp does not display every categoies in the following cases :
    -post quick edit mode.
    -post standard edit mode.
    -category parent edit scroll-menu.

    It means some categories are missing…
    Unfortunately I did choose to organize the whole menu and blog structures with categories … and “menu order” which implies to sort posts.
    The desactivation of Simple Custom Post Order brings back every category in every scroll-menu.

    Does anyone knows how to keep using both categories and SCPO ?
    Or maybe (I know it is not the place to ask such a question…) an alternative to SCPO ?

  • I think I found the bug!

    SCPO will work correct until we try to sort categories on a second page, forced by pagination. You can change the pagination in options to have always all categories on one page.

    After removing the all entries “thets_order” related to categories in wp_postmeta, I found all my categories. And sorting in the wp-admin list worked again.

    to understand to problem, please test the following:
    1) Create more than 7 categories
    2) set the number of categories shown in the category list to 4 (pull down option) .
    3) now you will see 2 pages of categories, go to page 2!
    4) reorder the categories
    This will result in wrong values in wp_postmeta -> meta-value.
    The page number is not taken into account.
    You will get indicies from the first page and this will hide the category that was on the position before. (see simple-custom-post-order.php line 462- 465)

    The js does not get the correct position!
    This is a bug.
