Sorting bookmarks within categories

[Bairman]

I hope I'm submitting this correctly and that it's not a duplicate. If so, I apologize... this is my first time.

I've just upgraded from 2.0.5 to 2.1 and a feature that was previously available seems to have been removed... sorting bookmarks other than by rank, and individually within each bookmark category.

As an example... I had one bookmark category sorted by descending URLs and another sorted by ascending IDs, with the rest sorted to the default (ascending names).

Can this functionality be restored?

This functionality remains...
However you need to include it in the template tag calls rather than configuring it within the admin area.

Could you provide any info (or a link to somewhere) on how to do this? If so, then this ticket could be closed.

I'm guessing it can be accomplished with additional arguments for the wp_list_bookmarks tag, but I've no real idea how to do so.

Look closely at the "orderby" parameter.

Thanks... I saw your post in the support forum too. I guess I'll close this ticket then, unless the developers decide to add the feature back to the admin panel. It'd be a bit easier to implement that way, especially for non-coders.
