    Hi, I really love this plugin for a variety of uses, however, I’ve come up against an issue I can’t resolve. I am trying to make a simple single category list of 10 posts using the post ID for the category and creation date to sort the list. Here is the shortcode I’m using:

    [catlist id=403 orderby=date=asc]

    I can set it to either asc or desc, it returns the list in the same order. Is there something wrong with my implementation?

    Thanks for any help!

    Hi

    You have slightly misunderstood the parameters. orderby=date=asc is incorrect and doesn’t work. You have to use both order and orderby parameters as in the documentation:

    order – How to sort orderby. Valid values are:

    ASC – Ascending (lowest to highest).
    DESC – Descending (highest to lowest). Ex: [catlist name=mycategory orderby=title order=asc]

    So in your case the correct shortcode would be [catlist id=403 orderby=date order=asc]

    I see the mistake, it works perfectly now. Thanks so much!
