Sort Testimonials Alphabetically

    Hi there,

    I need to sort all testimonials so they appear in the ‘View’ alphabetically by ‘Title’.

    I tried using the ‘Menu Order’ sort option, however I have hundreds of testimonials and I will have to manually reorder each entry into alphabetical each time. This will be very time consuming.

    Is there another way?

    To sort all views alphabetically, add this to your theme’s functions.php or create an mu-plugin.

    /**
 * Sort testimonials alphabetically.
 */
function my_testimonials_orderby( $args, $atts ) {
	$args['orderby'] = 'post_title';
	return $args;
}
add_filter( 'wpmtst_query_args', 'my_testimonials_orderby', 10, 2 );

    To sort a specific view only; for example, view id 2:

    /**
 * Sort testimonials alphabetically.
 */
function my_testimonial_view_query( $args, $atts ) {
	if ( 2 == $atts['view'] ) {
		$args['orderby'] = 'post_title';
	}
	return $args;
}
add_filter( 'wpmtst_query_args', 'my_testimonial_view_query', 10, 2 );

    I added this line to ensure sorting ascending:

    $args['order'] = 'ASC';
