[Plugin: Network Latest Posts] Sort order

    Hi there, what a very nice plugin!!
    Just trying it out, and have some more css adjustments to do I guess.

    AND a question:
    I set the plugin to sort posts form newest to older. Works fine, until I update/adjust an older post. When saving, it leaves the date OK, but puts this post on top, as if it were the latest post.

    Can you look into this please?

    Thx for your efforts and kind regards!

    Hello Ronaldus, thanks for your comments. Actually that’s the expected behavior, this plugin pull the last_modified date from posts. It means, each time you update a post even if it’s old, it’s considered recent content (for some people this is useful because if you’re editing an old post it means you want to keep people up to date).

    Nonetheless, if you want to change this behavior, and pull the posts based on their creation date you may want to adjust the plugin to pull this value instead, I’ll explain you how to do so:

    Open the network-latest-post.php file and look for this variable $all_posts[$post->post_modified] = $post; on line 364. Then replace it by this one: $all_posts[$post->post_date] = $post;. It should do the trick.

    Cheers.
