Hi Yes

This is what i added to the functions…

function display_speakers(){
 $template_vars = array(
    'layout' => "classic",
    'type' => "grid",
    'columns' => 4,
    'img_size' => "us_400_400_crop",
    'metas' => (array) us_get_option( 'archive_meta', array() ),
    'content_type' => "grid",
    'show_read_more' => 0,
    'pagination' => us_get_option( 'archive_pagination', 'regular' ),
);
 $the_content = us_load_template( 'templates/blog/listing', $template_vars );
 echo $the_content;
}
add_shortcode("display_speakers","display_speakers");

Can you advise as to how i can sort the individual speakers? Ideally i want to add somthing to the wp-admin/admin.php?page=espresso_people people admin page?

Is there a way to add a columb with numbers or somthing similar that will give a display order?

Thanks again
Ben.

Hi Josh

I have followed your instructions i have installed the simple page ordering plugin (which is working on normal pages) and created a plugin called “people-sort-plugin”

<?php
/*
   Plugin Name: people-sort-plugin
*/
   
   
//* Please do NOT include the opening php tag, except of course if you're starting with a blank file

/* The following can be added to make a second People admin list table menu item (at the main menu level) 
 * that will work with the Simple Page Ordering plugin 
 */

// modify how the People custom post type is registered so it's hierarchical **and** shown in the main WP menu 
add_filter( 'FHEE__EE_Register_CPTs__get_CPTs__cpts', 'ee_modify_visibility_of_event_people_cpt' );
function ee_modify_visibility_of_event_people_cpt( $cpt_registry_array ) {
    if ( isset( $cpt_registry_array['espresso_people'] ) ) {
        $cpt_registry_array['espresso_people']['args']['show_ui'] = true;
        $cpt_registry_array['espresso_people']['args']['show_in_menu'] = true;
        $cpt_registry_array['espresso_people']['args']['hierarchical'] = true;
        $cpt_registry_array['espresso_people']['args']['capabilities']['create_posts'] = 'do_not_allow';
    }
    return $cpt_registry_array;
}

// change the post query’s orderby parameter to menu_order so the posts display in the defined order
add_filter( 'posts_orderby', 'jf_eea_people_archive_orderby' );
function jf_eea_people_archive_orderby( $orderby ) {
    if( is_post_type_archive( 'espresso_people' ) || 
      is_tax( 'espresso_people_categories' ) ||
      is_tax( 'espresso_people_type' ) ) {
        $orderby = "menu_order";
        return $orderby;
    }
    // not a people archive, return default order by
    return $orderby;
}

and installed it using the code supplied but there is no new menu item for people, where would this be located? Is there a way to get this to work on the EE Event Espresso – Manage People plugin page?

Thanks again
Ben.
