The project is hosted on Google Code, but it seems as if no one is contributing to it. Furthermore, it is unclear whether anyone can *join* the project, as Dyasonhat would have to add you manually.

It is a shame, as this seems like a promising plugin!

Neither for me, also WP 2.6.2 locally, with all themes.

Any chance for an update?

How do I get this plugin to work???

Is it compatible with 2.5.1??

Does it work on the main index?

Is there an alternative out there?

- Thanks

Hi Stev,

Nice idea, will add it to the todo list, waiting for a stable wordpress 2.5 to start reworking this plugin.

Is it possible to make this work with Tags instead of Categories?

Thanks
Stev

Hi William,

2.1.2 shouldn’t be a problem I’m running the same version.

Just to clarify you wouldn’t see a category “selector”, after placing the < ?php placesort ?> in your template it would show a link Category a-z which allows you to sort the page you’re viewing based on the name of the categories associated with each post. It seems that the sort bar doesn’t show in the sidebar will add that to the bug fix list for the next version.

I’ve placed a working version on my site now, you can see it on any of the category pages.

Its probably best to place the code snippet in your Main Index, Category and Archive templates around where is says < ?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?> I’ve placed it above that line.

Hey this is really great! I’ve been looking for something I can sort newest to oldest or oldest to newest.
I am having a problem getting mine to show however. No category selector is showing up even though I have configured the options and have put the code snippit in my sidebar.
Is there an live example I can see?
Here’s mine: http://www.williambay.com/thailand

Only thing I can think of is that I’m running 2.1.2.

Thanks for help in advance.
