Sort order for Portfolio items

[jameslane]

Hi Guys,

I’m trying to change the order of portfolio items so it’s alphabetical. Any ideas how I could do this? I don’t mind changing the code where needed.

Regards,

Hi,
Please paste this code at functions.php of child theme.

function sf_portfolio_sort( $query ) {
    
		$query->set( 'orderby', 'title' );
		$query->set( 'order', 'ASC' );
        return;
    
}
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'sf_portfolio_sort', 1 );

Thanks
Mohammad

Hi Mohammad,

I’ve just noticed that the code has made the ‘latest posts’ appear in alphabetical order too. How would I keep the latest posts as they were?

Hi,

Can you try the code below, to only affect the portfolio custom post type?

function sf_portfolio_sort( $query ) {
             if ( is_singular( 'portfolio' ) ) {    
		          $query->set( 'orderby', 'title' );
		          $query->set( 'order', 'ASC' );
             }
        return;
    
}
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'sf_portfolio_sort', 1 );

Hi,
Please remove the last code and use the code like this:-

function sf_portfolio_sort( $query ) {
if($query->query_vars[‘post_type’]==’portfolio’){
$query->set( ‘orderby’, ‘title’ );
$query->set( ‘order’, ‘ASC’ );}
return;

}
add_action( ‘pre_get_posts’, ‘sf_portfolio_sort’, 1 );

That has worked a treat, thank you. Hopefully people will be able to use this in the future if needed and it’s not just me.

Anyway, thanks again!
