    would you mind adding “menu_order” to the list of valid_sort_orders ?
    i had to hack the plugin and disable its updates for the time being.

    these are the lines affected:

    line 650:
    $valid_sort_orders = array( 'menu_order', 'date', 'title', 'comment_count', 'rand' );

    line 1437:
    'menu_order' => esc_html__( 'Menu Order', 'category-posts' ),

    many thanks!

    That can be done with our pro version and a filter hook we provide.

    Because of two reasons. May the ‘menu_order’ is more for pages as posts and we provide only posts with the free version and with our pro we support also pages.

    And as mentioned we provide such filter hooks with our pro version.

    Here is an sort-by example for our pro: http://tiptoppress.com/extensions/sort-by-extension/
    Please write us if you are interested in the pro version here and we will help you in adapt the example above to your needs: http://tiptoppress.com/contact/

    uhm… well… allow me to dissent with your statement, as there’s nothing that stops ordering posts (and custom post types) with ease with the default WP ordering, or even using plugins like Intuitive CPO. if “menu_order” wasn’t meant for posts, i don’t think WP would have made that available.

    anyway, thanks just the same, i understand your position.

    For posts there is no default ordering option?
    For posts you need a plugin like Intuitive CPO to get a ordering option?
    To use another plugin is for us more custom code and we wouldn’t support a feature which can only be used, if you download another widget.
