Hi Anh Tran,
I am using a 'post' field (within a Group), with field type 'select-advanced'. On the form, the the dropdown list shows the posts listed in date-created order. Is there a way I can have them listed in alpha order instead?
Thanks,
Mark

Hi Mark, you can add params to the query_args to specify the order like 'orderby' => 'post_title'.

Hi Anh Tran,
I have this working now, thank you. As I'm using the Meta Box Builder and not code (I'm not a developer), I used the Query Arguments option on the 'post' form (General tab). For anyone finding this question, this is what I did, using two Query Arguments lines:

Key | Value
Orderby | post_title
Order | ASC

That's correct! I forgot that you're using the Builder extension 🙂
