Regarding ordering by custom field

a) On the frontend dont appear "Order by <fieldname>" but "Default order"

b) Fields of type "Select", obtained from a query, are being ordered by its id, no its text. For example, suppose a country list

select countryid, countryname from countries

Later, when ordering a category by the Country field, it will order by Countryid, not Countryname

Hello

currently, the custom field order will not appear in frontend ordering selector

I see, I´ll do a workaround then

What about the second point?

b) Fields of type "Select", obtained from a query, are being ordered by its id, no its text. For example, suppose a country list

select countryid, countryname from countries

Hello

yes,
this is the way it is implemented (it is not a bug)

-- because the value is stored in the DB ! and not the label, maybe we need to update our description to add a warning for this


if you want to order by text then you need to have a select with options that have

value = label
