How can I control the ordering of obituaries when on a category view?

Ideally, I'd like them sorted by date of death (ost recent first).

I tried to change the ordering number for the obits in the admin view... the number changed (it did throw an error though), but that doesn't affect the category view.

I read in the forum that the ordering can be set to most recent entered at the top, which will work for now, but how do I do that... I can't find anything under the settings to change that.

Please advise.

Thanks!

-Paul

Paul Schuytema OFFLINE Fresh Boarder Posts: 8 Karma: 0	Thanks very much! I have the new stuff downloaded and installed, but I'm still not sure where I can set it so that a category view orders by either funeral date or last entered (or actual obituary order)... can you give me some guidance? Do I adjust some setting on the category menu item or in the settings for Memorials? Thanks -Paul

Okay... I think I have it... it's the Show Latest Items first in settings, right?

But now I've hit two problems with the new build...

How do I turn off the "light a candle" button? Maybe it was a CSS thing I'll have to look into...

Also, for the obituary display (coming off of a category list menu item and licking to see a full obituary), the photo does NOT show... it shows in the category list, but only the placeholder shows up when we are looking at the obit... ideas?
