Admin Categories in Post Page ordering (2 posts)

    Hey guys,

    I need to hack the admin post page so that the categories remain in their default order (when none are selected) rather than reordering when some are selected.

    When you edit a post, the categories that are already selected go to the top of the categories box, and we definitely don't want this! Any ideas on how to keep this in the original order??

    Thanks.

    Go here:

    And follow the rabbit trail starting at wp_category_checklist
    http://phpxref.com/xref/wordpress/wp-admin/includes/template.php.source.html#l432

    There may be a filter somewhere that lets you switch the "checked on top" feature off.
