Hello,
I wanted to ask if you can order the categories in alphabetical order. From a to z. I I've tried from the admin panel but the categories remain in insertion order. Can you help me?
thanks

Hello,

We special in admin panel have "Reorder" column for categories, in Book Library category manager, with it help you may order every category exactly as you wish.

If you agree kill that features and show categories ordered by title.

You need in file:
{yours site}/components/com_booklibrary/booklibrary.php

find function:
listCategories

and in it
Code:
    $query = "select c.id,c.parent_id, COUNT(bc.bookid) AS books, c.title, c.image, '1' AS display" .
        " FROM  #__booklibrary_main_categories as c
        LEFT JOIN #__booklibrary_categories AS bc ON c.id=bc.catid n
        LEFT JOIN #__booklibrary AS b ON b.id=bc.bookid AND b.published=1 AND b.approved=1
        WHERE  c.section='com_booklibrary'
          AND c.published=1 AND ({$s})
        GROUP BY c.id n
        ORDER BY parent_id DESC, c.ordering ";


replace to

Code:
    $query = "select c.id,c.parent_id, COUNT(bc.bookid) AS books, c.title, c.image, '1' AS display" .
        " FROM  #__booklibrary_main_categories as c
        LEFT JOIN #__booklibrary_categories AS bc ON c.id=bc.catid n
        LEFT JOIN #__booklibrary AS b ON b.id=bc.bookid AND b.published=1 AND b.approved=1
        WHERE  c.section='com_booklibrary'
          AND c.published=1 AND ({$s})
        GROUP BY c.id n
        ORDER BY parent_id DESC, c.title DESC";


Please backup that file firs

Thanks,
Andrew,

Hello,

Look like forum soft, remove some letters from code what I sent. Please use code below:

Code:
    $query = "select c.id,c.parent_id, COUNT(bc.bookid) AS books, c.title, c.image, '1' AS display" .
        " FROM  #__booklibrary_main_categories as c
        LEFT JOIN #__booklibrary_categories AS bc ON c.id=bc.catid 
        LEFT JOIN #__booklibrary AS b ON b.id=bc.bookid AND b.published=1 AND b.approved=1
        WHERE  c.section='com_booklibrary'
          AND c.published=1 AND ({$s})
        GROUP BY c.id 
        ORDER BY parent_id DESC, c.title ";


Thanks,
