Reordering with Playa / Reverse Related Entries
Hey Low - this code is breaking my page layout:
[code]
{exp:channel:entries channel="portfolio_categories" orderby="cat_reorder" sort="asc"}
{reverse_related_entries weblog="portfolio" orderby="portfolio_order"}
{portfolio_item limit="1"}
{/portfolio_item}
{/reverse_related_entries}
{/exp:channel:entries}
[/code]
The orderby="portfolio_order" is what breaks it. Am I doing something wrong?

I'm currently on vacation, so my support is limited until the 21st of June.
I think it might have to do with the reverse related entries combined with Playa not being able to sort by custom field, but I'm not sure. I should do some tests myself in order to check, but I can do that only when I get back.

Cool. Enjoy your vacation!

Hi!
What's the status of this issue at the moment? I've been trying to reproduce it (without Playa, but with reverse related entries) and everything seemed okay.
If you're still having trouble, please let me know.

It's not breaking the page anymore - but it's also having no effect when I reorder the entries. I can create a login if you'd like so you can look at it. I'm fairly certain all my code is in order.

The no effect bit might be a caching issue. Try reordering the entries, then clear all caches (under Tools > Data > Clear Caching), and reload the page.
If it still has no effect then, I'll take a look at your code.

Still no luck. Cleared the caches and viewed from multiple computers on separate networks.

If you send me some login data for your installation, I'll take a look when I can. low at loweblog dot com.

Thanks! I sent it your way

For the record, the problem was that there were 2 {reverse_related_entries} tags, one of which did not have the orderby parameter. Adding it solved the issue.
