Post reordering doesn’t work

  • Hei, guys.
    After I drag and drop my posts, the order doesn’t change on the blog page.
    It is not only with this plug-in. I’ve tried at least 3-4 more. No matter what I do, the only way to change the order in which the posts are listed is to edit the post date. Is there some “global” in WP that I’m missing?
    I also have the Taxonomy Order plug-in, which works like a charm.
    Bonus question:
    Can I use this plug-in to display post in category order.
    I mean when I open the blog page (with all posts) to see them ordered by the categories. In my case, to see first all cakes, than desserts etc.
    Thanks in advance

    Update:
    Just tested a php code which I got from another forum, and implemented using WPCode, which also didn’t work

    // Function to modify default WordPress query

    functionwpb_custom_query( $query) {

    ????// Make sure we only modify the main query on the homepage?

    ????if( $query->is_main_query() && ! is_admin() && $query->is_home() ) {

    ????????// Set parameters to modify the query

    ????????$query->set( 'orderby', 'rand');

    ????}

    }

    // Hook our custom query function to the pre_get_posts

    add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'wpb_custom_query');

    Hi,
    Can you make sure the “Auto Apply Sort” option is active ? Also clear these site caches.
    See if the front query actually run a standard WordPress Query and not interacting directly with the database.
    Try to disable other plugins to ensure there isn’t another code that interfere with the sort function.

    Thanks

    Well, in the entire file class-wp-quiery,php, mention on this thread, there isn’t a single loop. The world while is used only once and it is for a comment…
