                  $orderBy = ' ORDER BY ' . $this->filter_order . ' ';


/* 20130529 begin code cast-art siwtch direction if order is created_on*/

i use the above hack to sort category on created_on by desc and price by ASC it is working but only the first time browser opens the category if user change the sort price and then by creation date again the hack doesnt work... is there any other way to do this sorting???

thanks in advanced

i use joomla 2.5.18 and VM 2.0.24c

I think the solution in your case is just to update and use the new config settings.
