Project page order versus Front Page ‘latest project’ order

Hi, I’ve just re-vamped my site (www.djg4friends.com) to Pitch.

Projects on FRONT Page – show in the order of the ‘first’ entered – based on time uploaded. This seems a little odd since the Settings/Front Page/Projects; default text for this section is “Latest Projects” thus should be showing the last project created and uploaded.

However, on the “Project” page layout, the “latest Projects” (last project created and uploaded) does become the default.

On my site I had deliberately wanted the latest projects to show first on Front Page, so I loaded them in that way – only to find that my Project page (once created) – reversed the order! (bummer)

Is there any easy fix, so Project Page order can be changed?
Thanks

    Hi Dennis

    It’s not too hard to make changes to the order and number of items shown on the Pitch home page. Head to home.php and check out lines 29, 43 and 55. Those blocks have settings for posts per page and order. So to switch the project order on the home page change line 32 from DESC to ASC.

    So hopefully you don’t mind changing your project dates one more time, then in conjunction with the above edit it sounds like you’ll be sorted

    Please use a child theme to place home.php in after changing it.

    Hi Andrew,
    Thanks for the help, much appreciated.
    I was kind of hoping I did not have to do coding – I like to stay away from ‘child themes’. However, if this really starts to BUG ME then at least I know what to do.

    Was kind of hoping you guys may look at it for an update to theme design?

    Anyway I’m pretty happy with how I got PITCH operating out of the bag!!!
    Regards, Dennis

    Hi Dennis

    Unfortunately we do need to dive into a little code in this instance. At the moment I don’t anticipate Pitch being further expanded. It’s possible to use posts, post categories and the Post Loop (PB) widget to do the same thing in Vantage. That would be my recommendation for the future.

    Kind regards
