sjtaylorI have been battling with trying to get this code working on my site.
I would like to have the ability for the user to sort posts ASC and DESC from clicking href link.
This option should be remembered when the user then chooses to sort the post list by another option I.E title, votes, date, etc.
here is what i have got do far.
<?php $sort= $_GET['sort'];
if($sort == "A")
{
$order= "gdsr_sort=thumbs";
}
if($sort == "B")
{
$order= "orderby=title";
}
if($sort == "C")
{
$order= "orderby=date";
}
?>
<?php $updown= $_GET['updown'];
if($updown == "Y")
{$ascend= "ASC";} //this orders in ascending
if($updown == "Z")
{$ascend= "DESC";} //this orders in descending
?>
<a href="?sort=A&updown=<?php echo $updown?>">Thumbs</a>
<a href="?sort=B&updown=<?php echo $updown?>">Author</a>
<a href="?sort=C&updown=<?php echo $updown?>">Date</a>
<?php $sort= isset($_GET['sort']) ? $_GET['sort'] : "B";
//I've set the default to A, change it if you like
?>
<a href="?updown=Y&sort=<?php echo $sort?>">Ascending</a>
<a href="?updown=Z&sort=<?php echo $sort?>">Descending</a>
<?php query_posts($order.'&order=$.ascend.'); ?>
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : ?>
<?php /* Start the Loop */ ?>
<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>The href for sorting works just fine however the ASC / DESC do not do anything the whole thing just stays DESC.
Many thanks
Simon
