Ordering products in a category numerically not working

[cavemanwayne]

I've tried ordering my products within their respective categories using '::NUMBER' after the category names but this info doesn't import to magento through Magmi.

indeed, this ordering seems to currently work only with category_ids, since with names, separators are used for specifying category attributes values.

I'll try to fix this, probably by setting a specific separator for position.

This is great news please update me when the fix has been created and i'll update my spreadsheet accordingly

Hi dweeves has there been any progress on the ordering of categories?

Joining the conversation, I would like to say first how awesome magmi is and that your work is priceless. I am using magmi for a year now and I cannot imagine working without it. So thank you dweeves. Sorting products Is imperative in my shop, and dividing my csv file to avoid the sorting reset is messy. To have the option to sort with categories column (names) sound very very good. Truth is I did not manage to sort using category_ids as well for a reason unknown. Thank you Dweeves.

I would also love to this amendment. As it stands though, I can't even get the "category name::[is_active]::[is_anchor]::[include_in_menu]" approach to work. When I check my import, Magento has ignored the additional options. So I'm hoping that if Dweeves can find time to add the sort option it will also fix this :)

I'm looking forward for this feature!
