Hi, I am unsure how to use the Display Order function for Menu Order, and am hoping for some guidance/suggestions. I have over 200 food items that are in multiple categories/menus, and have used shortcodes to display them in separate locations pages. Now I want to reorder some of the items in those categories, but can’t get the Display Order function to work… not sure I’m using it correctly.
I chose “Display Order” as my Menu Order theme option, and have tried setting the numbers under “Attributes – Order” for all menu items in one category, but nothing changed. So the question is, would the display order apply to each category listing (for example 0-4 for all items in more than one category), or will I instead have to order all 200+ items (0-200+)?
Any help would be appreciated.
I have gone through your website and seen that display order is working fine. Display order works on published date on how you published your posts.
I don’t understand what you mean. So is the display order selection in the linofeast options not related to the Attributes – Order box in the menu item? I tried that because I found the following answer from you in another thread:
Q: “I have a certain order that I want food items to show, but I can’t figure out how to change the ordering.”
A: “Regarding order you can select that in theme options that display_order option and in the display order field add the numbers starting from 0.”
So from that I assumed the display order field you mentioned meant the box that is called Attributes, which has a place for you to input Order. I tried that, and it didn’t change anything.
I just want to change the order of some items displaying in the food menu types (categories). For instance, I want to move the Side Salad to the top of the salads on each location’s page. I can’t even get it to move by manually changing the date of the post to be the most recent, so can’t change the display order at all. I’ve tried all of the other linofeast menu order options, but nothing changes. Please advise.
It is possible with attributes order and also you have to generate the shortcode like this,
[foodmenu cats="appetizers" thumb="true" title="true" desc="false" limit="5" charlimits="200" pagination="false" columns="false" orderby="menu_order" titlelink="false"]
You have to select the orderby as menu_order.
