Hi,<\/p>\n

this plugin has been very useful, I think it is also a good approach with the introduction of the new grid view. Although like others I am experiencing now some issues with the latest version and probably since 2.x has been released.
\nIt didn’t have to reorder new posts and didn’t realize the impact of the update.
\nAlso I just see 20 posts of let’s say 58 posts. I could not see the buttons to re-arrange post range and no Ajax slider. Only through other posts in this support forum I learned about it and saw it now on the screenshot. I found it then in one category which has only 5 posts. In all other categories it seems to disappear on load, this is the html<\/p>\n

<p id="range-text" style="display: none;">\n  <span class="title">Post range:<\/span>\n  <input id="range-min" min="1" max="-1" class="input-range" type="number">\u2014\n<input id="range-max" max="0" min="-1" class="input-range" type="number">\n  <span id="remove-items" style="display:none">\n <label for="insert-order">Move items to rank:\t\t\t\t\t <input type="number" min="1" max="0" name="insert-order" value=""><\/label>\n<span class="error"><\/span>\t\n<span class="display-block">Select single\/multiple items to move out of the current displayed range and insert towards the beginning or end of your list by selecting a suitable rank<\/span>\n<\/span>\n<\/p>\n\n<div id="slider-range" data-max="0" style="display: none;"><\/div>\n<\/code><\/pre>\n
This might be a bug which made other users also wonder why they can’t arrange new post anymore. <\/p>\n
Well in the FAQ I found
\n5.Can newly published posts be ranked first rather than last?<\/p>\n
I tried to add it in the Theme function file and fixed
\nadd-filter('reorder_post_within_categories_new_post_first', 'rank_new_posts', 10, 3);<\/code><\/p>\n
to <\/p>\n
add_filter('reorder_post_within_categories_new_post_first', 'rank_new_posts', 10, 3);<\/code><\/p>\n
but either I don’t understand what this hook does or it didn’t work. I still can’t see new released posts.<\/p>\n
Okay, I downgraded to v 1.8.1 and this mixed up all sorting. When I switched back to 2.4.2 it was fine again.  With some catgories of 50+ and 80+ posts it would be nerve-wrecking to have to manually sort everything again by hand.
\nI am lucky that I have backups so I can revert but for others could be upsetting.<\/p>\n
Somehow Reset the order! function does not seem to work on my end. And when I re-arrange the order of existing posts in grid-view it mixes up the order.
\nThe way I see it, the new version came with great new features but also with a couple of bugs and caused some issues for many users including me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-12388606","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/12388606","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/12388606\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12388630,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/12388606\/revisions\/12388630"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12388606"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
