    We are trying to change up the Sortby memberlist so that we can automatically sort by Members real name (username) and/or Location.  Where could I modify this?  In the CP the only options are:
    Total Posts
    Screenname
    Total Comments
    Total Entires
    Join Date

    Any help is very much appreciated.

    Hi WaterfowlZone,

    You’re referring to the front-end memberlist, at something like http://yoursite.com/index.php/member/memberlist, correct? By default I believe it’s going to sort by member ID, and changing that is not currently supported (though it could be hacked to do so). Am I correct that that’s what you’re trying to do?

    Actually that link took me to a hosting site.

    Hi, WaterfowlZone.

    As Brandon mentioned, that kind of functionality isn’t available in EE, you’d have to write code or do a hack to accomplish this. This makes it more of a how do I kind of post, so moving to the CodeShare Corner so other members of the community can assist.
