Should be fixed now. on version 0.3

You need to go to the category edit screen.

I’m sorry to hear your “not satisfied with this answer”
but I coded this plugin they way i needed it and shared it with the WordPress community the way I like.

Also your use case is not everyone’s use case and not everyone use this plugin the way you do on your site.

I posted a solution to help overcome this “issue” as an example you can use it or not.

You can suggest and request features but not dictate what or how the plugin should work just because you need it that way.

maybe when I’ll find the time or sponsor I’ll add an option to define your defaults.

Out of the box its only changing the main query.

changing a custom query requires custom coding.

ex:

add_action('pre_get_posts','custom_pre_get_posts');
function custom_pre_get_posts($q){
   	if ($q->is_category('board-of-directors')){
   		$t = get_term_by( 'slug', 'board-of-directors', 'category');
   		if ($t){
			$order  = $GLOBALS['in_cat_order']->get_all_category_posts($t->term_id);
			if (count($order)> 0 ){
				$q->set('post__in',$order);
				$q->set('orderby','post__in');
			}
		}
	}
}

Humm… I have no idea whats being asked or reported here.

It’s not really the directions this plugin is going but its an idea for a new plugin 🙂
