Links out of order!

Links out of order!
In one category my links are out of orger. C comes before A. Does anyone have any suggestions? Is there any solution to this? I did not use alt categories/links. How can I fix this? It is important that all links are in good sequence on my site.

Check the sort order variables, and make sure that they are being ordered by Title not priority, or new, or something else.

pugdog or any one that can help: Where do I find sort order variables? In what file? Thanks.

In the Links.pm file....Look for $LINKS{sort_order_category}.

Eliot and pugdog: I found $Links{build_sort_order_category} = "isNew, isPopular, Title"; in Links.pm file. Is this the right line? Do you see something wrong with my sequence? Thanks.

If you are putting "isNew" as the first search criteria, then links that are new will be sorted first.

If you just want links sorted by alpha by title:

make it:

"Title"

That will sort from A->Z

Unless of course you have any alt-links defined (see the multiple threads on this issue).

Hi, Pugdog and all those that helped: I changed to "Title" only. I did a rebuild and all the titles are in right order now. Thanks.
