• Hello, I just installed a plugin: My Category Order
    Inside the readme I see: Go to the “My Category Order” tab under Manage and specify your desired order for post categories

    I can’t find Manage inside my admin page…. please, can someone tell me where is it?

    Thanks

    Posts – My category order

    Thank you for the reply, I found it.
    Unfortunately I realized after the installation that this hack doesn’t solve my problem.

    My site now is built with few categories sorted in alphabetical order.
    An example of the structure is visible here

    About Us, News and Test Page are sorted automaticaly in alphabetical order.
    The question is: is there a way to change the order of these categories?

    They have been created following these steps:
    Links
    Link Category
    Add Link Category

    there’s no way to find them with this hack

    I would imagine you go to your theme’s sidebar.php and look for the category code – similar to
    <?php wp_list_categories('show_count=1&title_li=<h2>Categories</h2>'); ?>

    you would then need to add a conditional statement inside of the code – listed here
    http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_list_categories#Usage

    is that what you mean?

    this is the actual code inside the sidebar.php

    <div id="sidebar">
    <ul><?php 	/* Widgetized sidebar, if you have the plugin installed. */
    if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar() ) : ?>
    <!--
    <li>
    <?php include (TEMPLATEPATH . '/searchform.php'); ?>
    </li>
    -->
    <!-- Author information is disabled per default. Uncomment and fill in your details if you want to use it.
    <li><h2>Author</h2>
    <p>A little something about you, the author. Nothing lengthy, just an overview.</p>
    </li>
    -->
    <?php if ( is_404() || is_category() || is_day() || is_month() ||
    is_year() || is_search() || is_paged() ) {
    ?> <li>
    <?php /* If this is a 404 page */ if (is_404()) { ?>
    <?php /* If this is a category archive */ } elseif (is_category()) { ?>
    <p>You are currently browsing the archives for the <?php single_cat_title(''); ?> category.</p>
    <?php /* If this is a yearly archive */ } elseif (is_day()) { ?>
    <p>You are currently browsing the <a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/"><?php echo bloginfo('name'); ?></a> blog archives
    for the day <?php the_time('l, F jS, Y'); ?>.</p>
    <?php /* If this is a monthly archive */ } elseif (is_month()) { ?>
    <p>You are currently browsing the <a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/"><?php echo bloginfo('name'); ?></a> blog archives
    for <?php the_time('F, Y'); ?>.</p>
    <?php /* If this is a yearly archive */ } elseif (is_year()) { ?>
    <p>You are currently browsing the <a href="<?php bloginfo('url'); ?>/"><?php echo bloginfo('name'); ?></a> blog archives
    for the year <?php the_time('Y'); ?>.</p>
    <?php /* If this is a monthly archive */ } elseif (is_search()) { ?>
    <p>You have searched the <a href="<?php echo bloginfo('url'); ?>/"><?php echo bloginfo('name'); ?></a> blog archives
    for <strong>'<?php the_search_query(); ?>'</strong>. If you are unable to find anything in these search results, you can try one of these links.</p>
    <?php /* If this is a monthly archive */ } elseif (isset($_GET['paged']) && !empty($_GET['paged'])) { ?>
    <p>You are currently browsing the <a href="<?php echo bloginfo('url'); ?>/"><?php echo bloginfo('name'); ?></a> blog archives.</p>
    <?php } ?>
    </li> <?php }?>
    <?php wp_list_pages('title_li=<h2>About Us</h2>' ); ?>
    <?php /* If this is the frontpage */ if ( is_home() || is_page() ) { ?>
    <?php wp_list_bookmarks(); ?>
    <?php wp_list_categories('show_count=1&title_li=<h2>News from</h2>'); ?>
    <?php } ?>
    <?php endif; ?>
    </ul>
    </div>

    I’ve deleted Meta and other things I don’t want to show, but here inside there’s no trace of the 5 categories I’ve created.

    By the way my idea was to sort them by creation order.

    do you have a real link to your site?
    the code is there to list categories and you’re not getting any of them?
    do you have any widgets enabled?

    I have a real link, could I send it by private message?
    I can set a new admin-username so you can enter the admin area.
    Thanks

    i’m really sorry to bother you, but believe me, it’s the first time I use wordpress.
    Unfortunately seems that the procedure I followed to create Categories is not the right one.
    This is what I have to create on the site:

    MENU A
    link
    link
    link

    MENU B
    link
    link
    link

    and so on.

    I don’t want Menus to be sorted in alphabetical order, even though if it’s not possible it won’t be a big problem.

    Links MUST be sorted into creation order
