Hi, how do I order the values of a taxonomy in a frontend submission form. I could not find in your documentation.

Eg I would like year to show in descending order. I tried in custom settings 'order' => DESC and I also tried 'orderby' => 'meta_value', 'order' => 'DESC', but neither worked!

Ok I worked it out. I was putting oder => DESC into custom settings and not query args. You can close this

Although one more related question...

I have one that has 3 of the same letter followed by a number...
SDG 1 -
SDG 2 -
etc...

But (even with order => ASC) it shows:
SDG 1 -
SDG 10 -
SDG 11 -
etc..
SDG 2 -
SDG 3 -

How do I fix this one?

Hi,

If you have a number with two characters following the letters, you also need to add two characters for all numbers such as

SDG 01 -
SDG 02 -
SDG 10 -
SDG 11 -

Great thanks - this was not possible for the frontend, but I changed the slugs and orderby slug, and it's all fixed. Thanks
