Ordering items in Joomla's Category Blog

Hi

I am using the "Category Blog" menu item to display FC items from a specific category.
Though i cannot sort them based on the ordering field of these items, although i used the category ordering as ordering option.

I read some older posts that i can use Joomla! ordering in my FC items, but i cannot find such a setting.
Any help is really appreciated

Joomla 3.6.5
FlexiContent 3.1.1

Hello

you can only set the "Joomla" ordering in items manager
you can not use in flexicontent view and in flexicontent universal content module

you will need to set and use the "FLEXIcontent" ordering in items manager

explanation because FLEXIcontent items (can) belong to multiple categories
items have an (different) ordering in every category that they participate

Hello

i seem to have not answered your question
you want to use the ordering "Joomla category blog"

yes your can, to set it,
1. go to FLEXIcontent items manager,
2. (optionaly) filter by a category
3. click to order by ordering number
4. There is a selector inside the filters to select to use "Joomla ordering", change it from "FLEXIcontent" ordering to "Joomla" ordering

Thanks for the feedback.

I can find that field only when no category is selected.

If i select a specific category it's not there any longer.

All the items belong to 1 category.

Any idea?

Is there something i am missing or can be considered a bug?

I do not fully understand what you want to do. Here is what I do when I want to order items:

1. In category setting "Ordering in current category"
2. Make sure to order your items selecting the category (items of course have to be assigned to the category). Don't forget to save oder (image attached).
3. Make sure that you do not have overrides in the menu setting for the category blog view.
