If you need to order your post alphabetically from A to Z or from Z to A in archive page. Then you need to hook to pre_get_post and modify the function parameter – $query object. To be precise, you need to set orderby and order properties. Do that using $object->set(k, v) method. Simple, add this code to your function.php file. In my case, I use products custom post type created in CPT UI plugin (but it works for every custom post type).
/**
* Change the order of posts/pages/cpt in the Divi Blog module
* @see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=awg0gUfxC0c -> fix in comment by Wiktor Liszkiewicz
*/
function paChangeBlogModuleOrder($query)
{
// $result = array_key_exists('products', $query->query);
// echo "<pre>";
// var_dump($query->query);
// echo "<br>";
// echo "</pre>";
if (array_key_exists('products', $query->query)) {
// echo "custom sorting on!";
$query->set('orderby', 'title');
$query->set('order', 'ASC');
}
}
add_action('pre_get_posts', 'paChangeBlogModuleOrder');The debug of $query->query would like something liek that:
bool(true)
array(1) {
["products"]=>
string(16) "design-materials"
}
