Post Sort Order

[neelakantan-ca]

Hi

I am totally new to hugo and this theme. I have gone over the documentation for this theme, and some relevant hugo documentation. I may have missed something so please by patient with me.

I am trying to either reverse the sort order on list pages or use weights to change the order of posts.

I've looked through the following links:

• https://gohugo.io/content-management/front-matter/
• https://gohugo.io/templates/lists/#order-content
• Ordering content in a list layout #313

Could someone please guide me on how I would go about changing the sort order ?

Also a massive thanks to creator of this theme, it has helped massively in quickly setting up a small website.

Hi, you can use weight in the front matter.

From the docs:

weight
used for ordering your content in lists. Lower weight gets higher precedence. So content with lower weight will come first. If set, weights should be non-zero, as 0 is interpreted as an unset weight.

I tried that, it didn't change anything

All I can say is that it worked for me. Did you assign a weight to every content page in the list?

Yup, just double checked, regardless thannks for trying to help 😄
