Q: In Section Manager of mydomain.com/administrator I have listed one section's contents in the order I want them, but the site is displaying them incorrectly. What would cause this and how is it corrected?
A: This is an ordering issue.
In admin, Click on Menus then
select the menu which contains the section item , then click on that
item: the section in question.
On the Parameters, there is an
Ordering tabs, probably set to "Title Alphabetical". To have it reflect
the content ordering, you change that to be “Ordering” You also change
Primary Order to be ”Ordering”.
