Hello.
I am letting my users order posts and categories with a custom field. Posts are very easy like described here.
Unfortunately this didn’t work for categories:
$args = array(
'type' => 'post',
'child_of' => 0,
'meta_key' => 'order_cat',
'orderby' => 'meta_value_num',
'order' => 'DESC',
'hide_empty' => 0,
'hierarchical' => 1,
'taxonomy' => 'category',
'pad_counts' => false
);
$categories = get_categories($args);
That returns all categories in alphabetical order instead of the order of ‘order_cat’.
Can you please help me 🙂
