[Solved]News Module item order

[jasnick]

Using 1.10

I have just discovered that on all my sites that use a PostDate for news items, they are shown online in descending order even though ascending order is selected in Admin and they display in the list in Admin correctly. I added the parameter sortasc="true" to the News tag and it is now showing correctly online.

If a tag is needed, why is the choice given in admin?

Thanks.

Selecting 'ascending order' in the adminsection only has effect on how your newsitems are shown in the adminsection. To show your newsitems on the frontend in ascending order, you have the use the sortasc="true" parameter.
