    Hi,
    Can anyone suggest a trusted plugin to put the categories in alphabetical order or a custom order? I’m adding more on a new site to both places and events and need to rearrange them. I don’t want to to have to delete and re-add them and I might want to add more in the future.

    I’m using Whoop on this site.
    Thanks.
    Sue

    Is it the Popular Categories widget or shortcode, or something else?

    That particular feature doesn’t have a setting to change the order.

    If that’s not it, please send over a URL so we can see the categories you want to order.

    It’s just the choice of categories when people add a listing – the dropdown in the add listing page so people can choose which category(s) their post belongs to. I don’t want them in the order I created or added them. It’s not the widget. I know there’s no setting to change the order that’s why i wondered if anyone has used a plugin to do it. Would it be compatible with Whoop if I tried it? I don’t know. There are a few on WordPress.org:

    Thanks.

    No, a plugin would probably not work for that.

    It is some sort of custom order, then? Like

    Bananas
    Oranges
    Apples

    Something not alphabetical?

    Are you using the default ‘ajax-chained’ widget for the field?
