  If my understanding of the source is correct, you could load the summaries into an array, sort the array, then build the display using the sorted array.

  If you are using Ditto 1.0.2 just use &sortBy=`summary` to sort by the placeholder [+summary+]
  
  In 1.1 you can use &sortBy=`introtext` which is the summary field in the editor

  i’d like to sort by [+title+]. i’m using 1.02, and trying &sortBy=`title` resulted in a parse error. is there a need to create and sort an array, or is there a simple way to achieve this, either with 1.02 or 1.1?
  
  thanks.

  thank you - i tried it and it sorted in a reverse alphabetical order. is there another parameter i can configure to alphabetize from A-Z instead of Z-A?

  Look at the documentation, &sortDir.

  All of my ditto links end up looking like:
  
  http://www.domain.com/45
  
  I have friendly URLs turned on and have toggled the settings around to many different configurations. Currently, my settings are:
  Use friendly URLs: Yes
  Prefix for friendly URLs: [Blank]
  Suffix for friendly URLs: .html
  Use friendly aliases: Yes
  Use friendly alias path: No
  Allow duplicate aliases: No
  Automatically generate alias: No
  
  The same pages that are having the problem in ditto are showing up fine in other non-ditto menus.
  
  An example of the problem can be seen here:
  http://newheights.falkicon.com/press.html
  
  All of the pages do have Aliases set.
  
  This only seems to be a problem with Ditto, all of the other links are working fine.

  You are using [~[+id+]~] to generate your links correct?

  Umm... not correct...
  
  I was using [+id+]... I thought I pulled it from the template that came with ditto that way but maybe I missed the outer wrapper. That fixed it
  
  Thanks
