Introduction<\/a><\/h3>\n

Sorting applies to listings shown on the Archive template using the gd_loop element. An example of an Archive page is \/places\/, which will show all the listings that are gd_places. <\/p>\n

Each CPT can have independent sorting options. You might want to sort paid listings by “Featured” and then sort events by Date, for example.<\/p>\n

Sorting features do not apply to search results. Search results are always sorted by relevance.<\/p>\n

Any sorting options that you create will also be available for use with GD Listings.<\/p>\n

Find the Places Settings – Sorting (tab) in the backend.<\/p>\n

Setting Up a Sub-Sort Order<\/a><\/h4>\n

Where results are ‘equal’ within the sort, they can be sorted again. For example, the first sort is by Title (alpha), then within all the listings starting with “A”, sort them again by which are highest rated.<\/p>\n

You can set this ‘sub-sort’ up like so:<\/p>\n
