Hi, I am using the following categoriey hirarchy:
“Europe”
“Country A”
“City A”
“Country A” is a sub-category of “Europe” and “City A” is a sub-category of “Country A”.
As such I would expect the categories to show on a post like this:
Europe Country A City A
Sometimes this works, while in other posts the order is not correct and shows like this:
Country A City A Europe
Can you please let me know what I need to change in order to show the correct category order on all posts?
Many thanks
Additional info: I just found out that the order criteria only applies to the first sub-category. The category below the sub-category is sorted alphabetically – which does not make sense given the idea is to keep the category hierarchy.
Is the Newspaper 8.5 able to keep the full category hierarchy?
Sample:
Europe (main category) – Germany (sub-category of Europe) – Aachen (sub-category of Germany) –> this would be correct
Aachen – Europe – Germany –> this is what currently happens as only the first sub-category is sorted below the main category “Europe” and the sub-category below “Germany” (“Aachen”) is sorted alphabetically instead of below “Germany”
Hello Ralf,
Unfortunately, the default order for subcategories displayed in the mega menu is alphabetical. Unfortunately, there is no option to change the categories order, you will need custom modifications for this.
I suggest trying this plugin Category Order and Taxonomy Terms Order as I saw that many users use it to change the categories order.
Thanks!
