sputnick3kI have everything the way I want it to be. I made categories using the custom taxonomy and added columns on post screens so that you can see the attributes for each post at a glance. Like the description of each post, the custom field value of each. But when I set the hierarchical value to true, the values on the columns disappear. I just want to be able to use the orderby=menu_order.
