Great – thanks for the work-around. Look forward to the next update.

Don’t worry, not too much of an inconvenience for me, just wanted to let you know really.

Cheers

so you’re talking about a different category term, not a different category!

Yes, sorry, should’ve probably me more accurate describing the taxonomies and terms.

Have you made sure you selected ‘yes’ for the manual ranking of your the category term that is not working? By default it is ‘no’ and this would allow you to rank your products in the dashabord but the front-end would not show your manual ranking.

Yes, I’d spotted the default was ‘No’. Checked and double checked that I selected ‘yes’.

Tell you what, if it helps, my test install was hosted locally so I’ve put it online somewhere and will pass you the admin details. You can see for yourself. Will send you a message once the DNS has propagated.

Many thanks

how do you query the custom taxonomy?

what standard tempalte part are you refferring to?

No custom queries or taxonomies on my part – just the product loop and templates that WooCommerce uses by default.

It’s a clean WP and Woo install using TwentyTwenty. (i.e no custom code, templates, functions or anything).

yes, I now better understand your issue, however, is this custom taxonomy being properly sorted when you downgrade to v2.1.1?

Not a custom taxonomy –?well, I guess technically it is, but it’s nothing I’ve added as it’s the default WooCommerce product category.

However yes, I’ve just re-tested, re-installed 2.1.1, pushed the button to delete all previous sorting data, re-ordered items and the sorting works just fine in 2.1.1

can you change the line and remove the word LEFT, so that the line is,

$args .= “JOIN {$wpdb->postmeta} AS rankpm ON {$wpdb->posts}.ID = rankpm.post_id “;
and let me know if that fixes your frnot-end ordering

Sorry – I tried this, but doesn’t fix the issue.

As I’m trying to give you as much info as I can:

Further testing at my end (with a fresh WooCommerce with sample products, clean WordPress) seems to show that only the first product category can be sorted.

The plugin appears to have no affect on further product categories and the order of products within a category shown in the plugin admin doesn’t reflect the order on the front end (even before trying to custom re-order).

I’ve only tested with Woo products, so have no idea about other post-types.

Cheers

Hi – Further info and a few things I’ve learnt, just in case it helps:

I just setup a clean install of WP 5.3.2 and WooCommerce 3.8.1 running the default Twenty Twenty theme.

The only other plugin running apart from WooCommerce is your ‘ReOrder Posts within Categories’ plugin. Nothing else at all.

I next imported the sample WooCommerce product data so that there’s some products to test with.

In the admin there was a notice about ‘First of all, you need to save your settings for Re-order Posts in Categories…‘ However clicking the link shows the error message: ‘Sorry, you are not allowed to access this page‘. The notice disappears after navigating to your plugin settings via the Settings menu.

Initially, the most up to date version of your plugin didn’t do anything (didn’t change the order).

I downgraded incrementally through several versions of your plugin (resetting each time) until things worked as expected… all the way back to 2.2.1

I then started upgrading incrementally back up through the newer versions back up to 2.4.2

Things appeared to be work okay. HOWEVER, this was short lived.
I soon discovered that if ‘Product categories’ is not checked/ticked within your plugin settings, zero products are displayed when viewing a category on the front-end. (‘No products were found matching your selection.‘ is displayed instead).

Only when ‘Product Categories’ is checked AND I have then navigated to the ‘Manually rant your “Products”‘ screen for the specific category (in this case ‘Accessories’) do any products appear within a category on the front end.

At this point re-ordering appears to work fine, both within the admin and for products displayed within the Accessorie category on the front-end.

HOWEVER, it only appears to work for a single category. Later selecting a different product category from the plugin dropdown (e.g. ‘Hoodies’ category), and re-ordering those products makes no difference to how the products within the ‘Hoodies’ categories are displayed on the front-end. The custom re-ording for the original ‘Accessories’ category remains intact.

So, things appear to be a bit glitchy in more recent versions of the plugin. In at least the latest version I can only re-order products in a single product category. Attempting to re-order products in other categories doesn’t work.

If you are trying to replicate, the category names I’ve mentioned are from the sample woocommerce product data.

Hope that helps a little if you

// EDIT – sorry, posted at the same time as you. Will reply after testing your suggestion about, although please read my notes above a fresh / default installation. Thanks

Hi there,

Sorry – not really much more info I can give you.

Updated my plugins, including yours, and noticed the re-ordering wasn’t working on the front end. In WP admin, the plugin appeared to be working fine, but the re-order didn’t appear on the front of my site. I used the options in your plugin to reset and delete old re-ordering etc and tried again, but it still didn’t work. Removing and re-installing the plugin didn’t help either. Turned off and reset site caching but that didn’t make any difference.

I tried both locally (NGINX) and on live server (Litespeed) but the problem appeared on both. I only use your plugin to re-order woo products within categories, so don’t know if the issue affects other post types too.

Not 100% sure if the issue was caused by the newest update, or if it was already problematic (i.e. could’ve already been broken).

I read your notes about how the re-order plugin doesn’t work if the query uses a non standard loop (e.g. get_posts), so checked things my end. I’m using my own theme, but it uses the standard WooCommerce template parts and loop for product archives.

For my store, as it’s quite important that products are displayed in a specific order within different categories, so as a temp fix decided to roll back to an older version of your plugin which worked. (In this case 2.1.1, although admit there are probably newer 2.1.x versions that work –?will try later and report back).

Not much new info there, but haven’t tried to troubleshoot any further.

Happy to help if I can.

Thanks

That’s brilliant – all good here.
Thank you for taking the time ??

Incase anyone is interested, Pie Web have told me they should be rolling out an update to WooCommerce Waitlist, hopefully towards the end of this week. The bug referneced above that stops Waitlist working with Kadence Email Designer is now included in the fixes.

In the meantime, I have a quick fix to one of the files to work around the issue for now. I won’t post it here, unless needed by anyone, as this thread if for Kadence Email Designer.

Thanks for your help earlier Ben – troubleshooting not only your plugin but others too!

kind regards

Thanks Ben, I’ll pass on the info to them.

Appreciate you looking into it so quickly.

Cheers
Stef

Yep – that’s the one (https://woocommerce.com/products/woocommerce-waitlist/) . I’ve reached out to their support too.
Give me a couple of mins and I’ll post whatever I find in error log.

Cheers

ah, sorry, I posted too quickly. Had a quick look at your plug-in and saw how you’d enqueued slick-min-js.

Easy enough to de-regisiter:
wp_deregister_script('slick-min-js');

I’ll leave this here in case it helps anyone else.

Thanks

Yes, sorry, should have elaborated further. You’re right, a DAM is Digital Asset Managment.

We plan to use a DAM for storing text files and images for articles and features to be published on our WordPress site, as well as storing product images (for WooCommerce). That way they are centrally managed and stored for anyone on our team (of remote workers) to access… either for web or print.

Instead of downloading the images from the DAM and then uploading them into WordPress, I was wondering if there are any solutions avaiable that connect or bridge WordPress’ media library to a DAM, so that when creating content in WordPress using the editor, images could be inserted directly from the DAM instead of uploading into WordPress’ media library.

I’m not aware of any such solution (I’d imagine it would come in the form of a plugin from the DAM creator) but thought it worth asking!

Hey – thanks for the info superkot, I apprecite it!
