   I tried to use Mike Smullin's "Sort Categories By Title" plugin to sort posts according to the value of the custom field "parag" which is a 4 digit number and modified the code to this:

   add_action('pre_get_posts','sort_categories_by_title');
   
   function sort_categories_by_title($x) {
   	if(in_category(4)) {
   		$x->query_vars['orderby'] = 'parag';
   		$x->query_vars['order'] = 'ASC';
   	}
   }

   I want to sort them only when displaying one category (#4 in this case) and then sorted by "parag" whatever value it has.

   Help please!

   ps. I tried is_category, in_category and a different custom value field but none of this seems to work. It also doesn't seem as if I have to call the function since it is included in the action call.

   Unfortunately i don't know, but a forum guy named Kafkaesqui helped me a lot with custom fields in the past, I think he could explain how, if he comes on here.

   Hi!

   I'm using the plugin above, but have a small problem. I'm using a custom field call 'pris' that contains any number for example 354.

   Now i want to sort the post by that number, starting with the lowest. Couldn't get the plugin to sort properly, any suggestions on how to fix that?
