Merged J! 3.1: Ordering categories doesn't work

Hi,
it seems that the ordering feature in the category manager section does not work. In fact, I can move an item to a different row, as I always do in Joomla for menu items, but it does work: when I refresh the page or move to another one and then come back, the items is shown in its previous position.

Thanks

Mauro

Hello, It's a known issue in Joomla! 3.1.5, it will be fixed in next version.

Do-you encounter the same issue in Joomla! 3.1.4 ?

I took previous versions of my joomla site (either 3.1.1 and 3.1.4) and it does NOT work the same.

Thanks

Mauro

Hello,
any more suggestions to me? I tried with several different versions of Joomla (3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5) and different PC's but THEY ALL DO NOT work to change the categories order.

Am I doing something wrong? I just click on the three vertical dots and drag the row above or below, as we normally do with menu items.

Should I save the layout? I don't think so. But I can believe no one is raising this issue.

Thank you

Mauro

Hello,

You can apply this fix : github.com/Kunena/Kunena-Forum/pull/1912/files

YOU HIT THE NAIL ON THE HEAD.
SIMPLY PERFECT- THANK YOU!

Kunena 3.0.2 on Joomla 3.1.5

New installation this week. Kunena seems to work fine, but I can't seem to make reordering of the categories stick.

I go to the Category Manager, click on the double arrow glyph, then drag the categories into the order I want. Then what? There's no save button, and doing any kind of page refresh looses the new order.

I'm stumped.

G'day, jpkeenanjr, and welcome to Kunena

There is temporary solution posted in msg #5 above.

Wow. Forum searching failed me. "category order" didn't find anything. "category ordering" did.

Fixed. Thanks.
