Hi guys.
I'm slightly confused as to how the Latest/Featured blogs ordering is working. If you navigate to my website at https://it-advice.guru/latest-featured-posts and page through the posts, you'll notice they are all over the place. The first post is dated Jul 30th, But then on page 2 the posts from today (from RSS feeds) appear. It's almost like the date sorting is being applied within each category, and not as all posts.
Thanks
Dave
Hi Dave,

Frontpage ordering for featured item is based on creation date column inside #__easyblog_featured table. I notice one of your featured blog post is created on 12th June 2015 but in the table #__easybog_featured don't have any post that are created on 12th June, http://screencast.com/t/1vdgi9on . After some further test on your site I figured out that the ordering date is based on when you make the post as featured from the backend.

I've do some featuring test on one of your blog post that are created at 3rd of August 2015 as you can see here, http://screencast.com/t/XdTBCcASaYuG and the date recorded on the #__easyblog_featured table is today's date (6th August 2015), http://screencast.com/t/Pi8suuuk4Cj .

Hope these can clear up the confusion about the ordering.
