Category Order
I’ve tried to find a simmilar post to answer my question, but couldn’t find anything.
Ive put together a Navigation with rss_article plugin, and it shows me the Categories with the number of articles associated to it. now appart from the ascending and descending order is there any way I would be able to order them to my desire?
Maybee there is another plugin which achieves the same by producing a nice unorder list from my categories. (Tried some other, but not may output clean html)
Thanks for any help, really apreciate!

Re: Category Order
I normally hand code those. To ensure possible changing of url I use something like
<ul>
<li><a href="<txp:site_url />category/category_name">category name</a></li>
<li><a href="<txp:site_url />category/category_name_2">category name 2</a></li>
<li>etc</li>
</ul>Yiannis

Re: Category Order
Is there any way to display the number of Articles associated in each category?
Haven’t thought about that idea yet..

Re: Category Order
I’m not quite sure what you use, rss_article? rss_unlimited categories should have a counter as far as I know.
The following should be capable of also reading in any table other than “textpattern”: <txp:php>echo safe_count("textpattern", "Category1 = 'foobar' or Category2 = 'foobar'");</txp:php>, change everything to your needs.
In bad weather I never leave home without wet_plugout, smd_where_used and adi_form_links
