How to order articles within a category?

Question

Problem: I have some articles within the same category. in the field ordering, some articles have the same number:

As in the picture, I can't control which one of the two articles with ordering = 0 goes up.

Question: How to get unique ordering-numbers to accomplish decent ordering?

I tried moving the articles to a new category, but they didn't change their order-numbers.

Answer 1

As @isherwood pointed out, check how the ordering is set in the menu link.

You mention that it is by article ordering so now - go to content > article manager

• at the top of the article table, click ordering
• change the numbers for each article as required (or use the up / down arrows)
• click the save icon

Good luck
