Have you looked at this function: http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_list_bookmarks
If it is the one used in your theme, then you should be able to edit the parameters to suit your needs.
Thanks. The line
wp_list_bookmarks(‘title_after=&title_before=’);
in sidebar.php seems to be the one I need. It doesn’t seem to change the sequence with
wp_list_bookmarks(‘orderby=id&title_after=&title_before=’);
Guess I need to try setting args and using
wp_list_bookmarks($args);
G 🙂
I’ve modified sidebar.php and list.php in my default theme changing the line
<?php wp_list_bookmarks(); ?>
to
<?php wp_list_bookmarks(‘orderby=id’); ?>
but it doesn’t change the sequence.
Sometimes a link to your web site and current theme can be useful to sort out issues like this. In this case the theme is probably the key detail.
Also, you mentioned “list.php” which is not a standard WordPress theme template file, have you asked the theme author for their input on this matter?
Sorry, Cais. The website is http://www.grador.biz/blog/ and I’m using the default theme. I have ordered the WordPress Bible and until that arrives have made very few changes to the original install. And I see I meant links.php

I just checked on one of my test servers and that should have worked for you. Did you try a “hard refresh” after you made the edit to insure your browser was not showing you a cached page?
Yup. Even cleared all the cache to be doubly sure. Well, it’s not the end of the world but it’s a puzzle if it ought to have worked. I can’t see I’ve mistyped anything…
