    A second set of eyes here would be great. I am sorting a list of child resources by the "page title" field (which in this case is a name). Ditto is doing a nice job, but there are several names out of order. Any ideas? I have tried a few things but nothing so far is doing the trick. The Ditto call below currently produces the following results. Thanks MODx army wink Using Evo 1.0.3 Ditto 2.1.0

    [[Ditto? &parents=`10` &tpl=`member_name` &filter=`category,architects,1` &sortBy=`pagetitle ASC`]]

      Try it with &orderBy instead of &sortBy.

        I solved this issue. The solution was to add &sortDir=`ASC` as opposed to combining both values. This ditto snippit below works.
