Ok you got it. Update to 2.12.5 and add this to your functions.php:
$tsml_sort_order = ‘region’;
Without the curly quotes though, sorry:
$tsml_sort_order = 'region';
Excellent!
Thanks for the fast reply! I’ll do that first thing in the morning. Can you fully dictate the order with fields separated by commas in the order you want?
For example: region,other fiekd,some other field
Thanks! AceOfJames
No, just the one field for now. If you know a developer who wants to add that, it is open source software and contributions are welcome.
I added that code and upgraded and Region is still last when shown on the meetings page. We want Region to be the first fields displayed in the list.
I do not think it worked unless there is something more I must do besides add that line of code to the functions.php
Please advice!
Thank you in advance!
Ah, ok, I thought you wanted to sort the data by the region field first, rather than change the order of the columns.
That that line out of your functions.php then, because it’s doing the wrong thing.
I’ll make a way for you to change the order of the columns and let you know when it’s ready.
Excellent! Thanks and let me know when you have devised a snippet of code to use.
I appreciate the help!

Ok try this:
$tsml_columns = array('Region', 'Time', 'Distance', 'Name', 'Location', 'Address', 'Types');
You can set the order of the other columns as well. Some are not visible by default but you still should keep them.
You should update to the latest version (2.12.9) for this to work.
I updated to 2.12.9 and added the code to the functions.php file and TIME is still first.
Where did I go wrong? 🙂
That was pretty vague of me but it didn’t work. Does that code make “Region” the first field, then time, distance etc. ?
It does. It’s working on my demo site, not sure why it wouldn’t be working on yours. What’s your URL? If you want, send your FTP info info@meetingguide.org and I will take a look, otherwise not sure what to suggest.
You might want to triple check that you’re editing the functions.php of the active theme by adding a die('hello'); statement to it to see if it has an effect.
I just emailed you. Thanks!
Thanks for all the FAST help!
