My comments are appearing in the wrong order… I want the latest at the top… currently it appears at the bottom. If I reverse sort=“asc|desc” there is no difference.

Any ideas where I am going wrong?

{exp:comment:entries orderby="most_recent_comment" sort="asc|desc"}
...
{/exp:comment:entries}

thank Lance

I think it should be orderby=“date” sort=“asc”.

normally yeh, but not working on my comments.

{exp:comment:entries sort="desc" orderby="date"}

is actually the correct ‘order’ that works… this is weird.

PLUS there is a bug in the comments… it seems with a count over 18 things go screwy.

That is weird.

brebre,
the bug you refer to has been fixed for next release. Is everything working ok for you now?

is actually the correct ‘order’ that works… this is weird.

If your comments were ascending then it would start with the first comment. Descending starts with the latest. It works the same across the board in EE

I also have this problem, comments not sorting correctly, even I use
it seems to be working correct

Hi 24here,

Thank you for the update.

@brebre, how are you getting on?

Cheers

Which is the bug that has been fixed ... the sort order problem or the ‘over 18 things get screwy’ problem?

I’m having the sort order problem right now ... regardless of the whether I sort ASC or DESC the generated template sorts in ASC.

Is there a workaround for this?

Hi, Mark. both have been fixed in EE2.1.4 beta.

{exp:comment:entries limit="20" sort="desc" orderby="title" channel="news" dynamic="off"}
    <li>
        <em>{author}</em> on <a href="http://{url_title_path="><strong>{title}</strong> - {comment_id} - {count}</a>
    </li>
{/exp:comment:entries}
