I'm experiencing an issue where the newest created articles (With todays date) are put at the bottom of the list of articles on teh front page, instead of the top. Is there a setting in the CMS admin panel to change this? Oddly enough, the very first one I made when I had first installed the beta suite went to the top. But now I've tried to create 2 more, and they go to the bottom of the page. Any input?
Article sorting on frontpage, Newest goes on the bottom and not the top?

Just encountered this issue myself. It looks like the time you set in for publishing is ignored I tried messing around with the order in the CMS control panel (from the adminCP) and nothing would get them into the correct order. I would suggest this is a bug that the vB guys will have to fix. -
So its not just me then, I guess thats good to know.

What do you have your starting section set to for sorting? Hover over the title of the section and click the pencil. Set the sort order to Newest First.Translations provided by Google.

When I click on the pencil like to edit the article, The 2 articles I created were set in the default "The front page" section. The first one I made that DID work, is also in this same one. Or do you mean inside the Administration panel somewhere?Vote for these items in the tracker: Image Watermarking ----- Search Algorithm Sucks ----- Drop Main CSS section from style manager ------ Simplify process to accept pending group join requests ------ Add option to publish to the wall of a "Fan Page" in addition to the user's personal FB wall. ------ CMS Should physically resize images into thumbnails and not scale via CSSComment

Sorry I just found the option in the Administration panel you were talking about. It was defaulted to manual. I swapped it over to "NEWest first" for "The front page" section, and i've still got the same thing.
edit: If I click the "View All" link at the bottom of the index page, it then takes me to a new page where they ARE sorted correctly and the newest ones are first, bu they still do not display properly on the front page itself.Vote for these items in the tracker: Image Watermarking ----- Search Algorithm Sucks ----- Drop Main CSS section from style manager ------ Simplify process to accept pending group join requests ------ Add option to publish to the wall of a "Fan Page" in addition to the user's personal FB wall. ------ CMS Should physically resize images into thumbnails and not scale via CSSComment

Mine is set to display newest first.
I have also set the display order manually and that doesn't alter the display order. I have also tried setting the publish time on my articles to 0:00:00, 0:15:00 and 0:30:00 which also has no effect.
As it stands currently my forum displays them in date order then the in ascending order of time posted.
Setting to manual via the content page and not admin panel does produce the correct results - newest first does nowLast edited by IanR; Fri 20 Nov '09, 8:39am. Reason: Did further testing from content page not admin cpComment

Wayne, I see what you mean now. On the actual frontpage itself, right next to where it says "The Front Page" there is the pencil. When I clicked that I seen the page you were talking about. It was already set from manual to newest first (I'm assuming since I had changed it in the Administration panel). However, I saved it from there and it DID change the sorting. BUT, when I had changed it in the Administration panel, it had not. To test this I've logged back into the administration panel, and set the section to MANUAL. I then went into the content manager and changed the priorities on the top 3 articles. The sorting does not change on teh front page and has remained the same as to where it was set from the edit pencil outside of the administration panel. So the administration panel options do not seem to be effecting the frontpage. Unless the settings in the control panel purposely do not overwrite the other? If so thats OK, just a little bit confusing.Vote for these items in the tracker: Image Watermarking ----- Search Algorithm Sucks ----- Drop Main CSS section from style manager ------ Simplify process to accept pending group join requests ------ Add option to publish to the wall of a "Fan Page" in addition to the user's personal FB wall. ------ CMS Should physically resize images into thumbnails and not scale via CSSComment

http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/proje...254#note103556 I created a bug on the tracker regarding this. Ian you might want to check it out and check that your able to duplicate this as well. I tried to follow up with it and make it more clear that the issue is regarding the changes being made from the Administration panel not working correctly.Vote for these items in the tracker: Image Watermarking ----- Search Algorithm Sucks ----- Drop Main CSS section from style manager ------ Simplify process to accept pending group join requests ------ Add option to publish to the wall of a "Fan Page" in addition to the user's personal FB wall. ------ CMS Should physically resize images into thumbnails and not scale via CSSComment

The options in the Admin CP are probably affected by caching and the ones in the front-end are not. You can bug the discrepancy so that it can be fixed.Translations provided by Google.

Is there any temporary solution for this? I'm really surprised and dissapointed that it hasn't been fixed for the gold.Comment

The whole article (and section) sorting thing is FUBAR.
It has never worked.
I have all my articles set to manual any still can't get them in number order.
Besides, you would thing that once you change the number order that it would resort on the edit page like the forums do....steven

I could see the Manual Ordering being very hard once you get hundreds of articles!
The question I have is if you do Manual Sort, and leave the order number blank. Does it sort by post date? As some of mine are manually ordered, others are not.Comment

I've not used the manual sorting any yet, but when you change the sorting for a section from the frontend (NOT THE ADMINCP) it does work if you go by newest/oldest first.Vote for these items in the tracker: Image Watermarking ----- Search Algorithm Sucks ----- Drop Main CSS section from style manager ------ Simplify process to accept pending group join requests ------ Add option to publish to the wall of a "Fan Page" in addition to the user's personal FB wall. ------ CMS Should physically resize images into thumbnails and not scale via CSSComment
