Navigator: is there a simple way to reverse the array?

In CMSMS 2.1.2:
Site will add 50 to 60 articles per year in several areas of the site... is it possible to set Navigator to list menu items last to first instead of the default first to last, so that the last item added is always at the top of the list?

Yes....
{$nodes=array_reverse($nodes)}
directly before the foreach loop should reverse the list of everything.
You may need to enable permissive smarty in the config.php
(it's in the config reference doc).

Thankyou.
As a complete amateur, I can insert the smarty code into the template, and I have enabled the permissive smarty in config.php which allows the template to load.
But I have no idea how to configure the reverse array function so that Calguy's code actually does anything.
I have in Navigator
{Navigator start_level="4" collapse="1" ... ion test"}
which works as intended, except it does not reverse the array.

Code: Select all
...
{if !isset($depth)}{$depth=0}{/if}
{if isset($nodes)}{strip}
{$nodes=array_reverse($nodes)}
<ul>
{foreach $nodes as $node}
{if $node->type == 'sectionheader'}
...

Thank you all. It works when I have this as the last few lines of the Navigator template
Code: Select all
{/strip}{/function}
{$nodes=array_reverse($nodes)}
{if isset($nodes)}
{Nav_menu data=$nodes depth=0}
{/if}

Better change order of those two lines for obvious reason:
Code: Select all
{/strip}{/function}
{if isset($nodes)}
{$nodes=array_reverse($nodes)}
{Nav_menu data=$nodes depth=0}
{/if}

Ta... How can I apply [Solved] to the original post? It doesn't seem to let me edit it?
