    In testing this plugin it seems that when manual post order is turned on the default is oldest post at the top, and for new posts to go at the bottom.

    It would be good if the default manual ordering be configurable newest at top vs. oldest at top. As it stands I cannot use this plugin with the current behavior.

    HI @lking57

    that would be a nice feature to add, however it is a rather complex problem to solve. However, there is a way to implement this in your page template where you want to display your ordered posts.

    If you have some PHP coding experience, you need to

    1. loop initially through posts whose IDs are not found in the plugin custom post table field $wpdb->prefix .ReOrderPostWithinCategory::deefuse_ReOrder_tableName.'.post_id where your term_id matches the field $wpdb->prefix .ReOrderPostWithinCategory::deefuse_ReOrder_tableName.'.category_id'
    2. next loop through the post ID which are present the above fields

    There is a plan in a not-so-distant future to re-write this plugin and include this kind of flexibility.
