I'm using the stockable variant plugin and have setup a parent with 3 child products.
The only difference between the child products is the size: Small - Medium - Large.
Sometimes the childs are saved in a random order, even if I create the childs in the same order: Small - Medium - Large.
I have no clue why this is happening and what order (if any) is used, so the order can be for example Large - Small - Medium.
I can correct this order using the ordering option which is available for the child products in the Product Information tab, so I can set it back to Small - Medium - Large.
However, this order is not used if I want to connect the child products to the right sizes in the customfields tab. Instead the previous random order is used.
This results in a random order in the dropdownbox: Large - Small - Medium.
Of course this is not what I want.

Is there a solution for this? The order which is (finally) used for the child products in the Product Information tab should be used to my opinion.

I've read a lot of forumposts about the same issue, but never a real solution. Anyway, I hope somebody can help.

Same problem here. I would like the sizes in the drop down box to be in the same order I specified in the stockable variants plugin setup.
