Specifing the display order of related links (using asy_wondertag )

<txp:if_custom_field name="Aanverwante_links_volgorde">
    <txp:asy_wondertag>
        <txp:article_custom limit=99999 form="MTS_article_list" sort="<txp:custom_field name='Aanverwante_links_volgorde' /> asc" category="embrace" />
    </txp:asy_wondertag>
</txp:if_custom_field>

Hi have been struggling to specify the display order of a series of article links.

I decided to create a custom field called “Aanverwante_links_volgorde”. (related_links_order)

The problems
1. I get an error cos of the parsing conflicts with custom field name and the standard “asc” sort attribute value.
2. When i use the <txp:if_custom_field> conditional tag it output nothing.

I have got round the whole issue by using the keywords field, but it’s not very logical or semantic. I’d rather use a specifically designed option as it make a little more sense for the other users

EDIT (still using 4.0.6 cos of the MLP difficulties with the newer versions)

sort="<txp:custom_field name='Aanverwante_links_volgorde' /> asc"

You need to replace the single quotes with double quotes.

MLP works with 4.0.7 :)
