MooFAQ Plugin Order Issue

Ah, the one place I didn't look - the button feature (duh).
It works perfectly and might I add - a very helpful feature to MooFAQ!
You rock,
Mike

Dear Mike,

That's odd. You should be able to see a new setting when you click on the "Add MooFAQ" editor button.

Anyway, try adding the following syntax:
order=|a.ordering DESC|

Best regards,

Douglas,
How does this work? I don't see any additional settings. I tried the order= code and that didn't work.

Wow, thanks so much Douglas.
I'll implement it and let you know how it goes.
I appreciate your help and dedication.
Thanks,
Mike

Dear Mike,

I have implemented this feature for you. This was not a simple task, even thought it seems like. I spend over 3 hours implementing and testing this feature. I hope it solves the problem you were facing.

I've updated the download package. Please create a full backup (for safety reasons) and install the new version.

Have a blessed weekend,

Douglas,
I keep seeing posts by people who are wishing to be able to order the FAQ via the plugin and the last post I saw from you was from about 6 months ago saying that you were working on fixing this issue.
I re-downloaded the latest version as per my subscription (which appears to be this package: moofaq_3.1__20130805_1043) and I still can't see where to be able to do this. For some reason, the default order is newest first.

With FAQ's (at least in most cases I know) the questions are in a specific order to how the client wants it. So in other words, in order to make this work properly, I need to know all of the FAQs for a particular subject up front (which I normally do) and then remember to enter them all into the articles in reverse order so that the one that I want to have show up first is the last one I want to enter. Really backwards thinking.

Anyone who is not familiar with this protocol might put 50 questions in their articles and then find out that they are all backwards. The simplest thing to do would be able to reverse the order. You can do this from the Menu item FAQ, but not from the plugin - why? I don't have a lot of time to go into the code and figure out how to do this myself, nor do I wish to.

Is this a permanent way of how this will work or are you still working on a way to fix this? I think it should just be a line of code for the embedded plugin. Something like: order=|ascending| or something like that.

Let me know when you have a chance.
Thanks,
Mike
