Filter Category Order

OutOfThisWorldPeri · December 2015

I would like our portfolio filter to be in a certain order, and not alphabetically.
Please can you help?

Here's a link to our site with the filter http://peripericreative.co.za/wp/video_concept/we-did-that
We want the order to be Websites, Logo & Designs, Identity, Prints & Ads, Other.

In what file in the code can I make the changes?
I know PHP well.

Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Luana

Hi Luana,

we are very sorry but we do not have any option to order these categories. If you know PHP well, then you can play with functions/theme-shortcodes.php file where all items/shortcodes are.

Thanks!

I use this colution:

Insert numbers in your categories name, so that they so that they appear in your desired order.

Example:
01-Categoryname1
02-Categoryname2
03-Categoryname3

Then with Javascript remove the first 3 characters (2 numbers + the -):
(function($){
   jQuery(".filters_wrapper .categories li a").each(function()
   {
      this.text = this.text.replace(/^[0-9][0-9]\-/,"");
   });

})(jQuery);

Not perfect, but works :-)
