    Hi.
    the masonry sorting options don’t work when I select a custom taxonomy and I try to sort the posts via any parameter: Title, Random, Page Order ecc.

    Using Query Monitor plugin I can see that the masonry query is always requesting posts sorted via post date, ascending.
    This is the last part of the query:

    ORDER BY wp_posts.post_date ASC

    Can I do something to fix it?
    Thanks

    Hey f.giorgini,

    Please post us your login credentials (in the “private data” field), so we can take a look at your backend.

    1. Install and activate ” Temporary Login Without Password “.
    2. Go to ” Users > Temporary Logins ” on the left-side menu.
    3. Click ” Create New “.
    4. Add the email address for the account ( you can use (Email address hidden if logged out) ), as well as the ” Role ” making that the highest possible and the expiry about four days
      ( do be sure that we have enough time to debug ).
    5. Click ” Submit “.
    6. You’ll now have a temporary account. Please provide us here in the private section the URL, so we can login and help you out.

    When your issue is fixed, you can always remove the plugin!
    If you prefer to not use the plugin, you can manually create an admin user and post the login credentials in the “private data” field.

    Best regards,
    Basilis

    Hi and thanks for your reply.
    I should ask if we can allow access from external.

    Anyways, after some further research i found out that i can use a filter to change the Masonry query to get posts.
    For others looking for the same hook here it is:
    avia_masonry_entries_query
    and here‘s how to use it, under the Change the sort order of Masonry Elements section.
    (Just be careful because you’d need some conditionals to allow the different sorting only for some specific Masonry in your site).

    But i guess the problem remains: why the backend settings are not respected so that we should use a filter?

    Don’t know if the documentation page i mentioned is old, but surely is gold :)

    Hi f.giorgini,

    Yes, this is the filter available, we need to have a look at the backend settings to see why the settings don’t seem to apply.

    These are the docs that apply at the moment

    Masonry

    Best regards,
