Category Sort (2) Wednesday, Jun 14, 2006 4:00 pm

The Category Sort plugin was just released a few days ago, and I miraculously stumbled upon it.  I've been wondering why WordPress doesn't have the functionality to sort the_category() alphabetically.  There are a few WordPress support pages about it, and there's even a support ticket that was submitted a while ago.

Hi David,

I'm glad you found the plugin and I had no idea that this was something that other people were frustrated with (I certainly hadn't seen those posts or that ticket). Anyway, let me know if you run into any problems.  And also, thanks for pointing me towards this.  At this rate, we should be able to eliminate every single Wordpress annoyance in a matter of days!

It's the little things. 

One thing about your plugin is that it sorts categories based on the child name (if it has a parent).  This might not be desirable in some cases.  Maybe there could be an option to sort by the parent names first, then within each parent to sort by the child names.  Just an idea.
