    Hi,

    I want to display a list of documents using getResources sorted by the way they are sorted in the Resources list. So if the user moves a Resource (document) to another position, the list made by getResources should reflects that.

    For example, my Resources list has the following ID:

    Overview ID:20
    Detail 1 ID:33
    Detail 2 ID:34
    Detail 3 ID:35

    If the editor moves the resources this way:

    Overview ID:20
    Detail 2 ID:34
    Detail 1 ID:33
    Detail 3 ID:35

    the list made by getResources should be exactly as this second option.

    Can anybody help me to find it out?
    Thank you in advance.

      Add &sortby=`menuindex` to your getResources call.

        Thank you odeclas for your answer.
        The &sortby code seems to work but the other way around. For example, I have these Resources order:

        Overview ID:20
        Detail 1 ID:33
        Detail 2 ID:34
        Detail 3 ID:35

        But in the website, the resources are displayed exactly inverse:

        Overview ID:20
        Detail 3 ID:35
        Detail 2 ID:34
        Detail 1 ID:33

        Am I missing some extra code?
        Thanks again.

          I found it!

          I just need to use the code:
          &sortdir=`ASC`

          Default is:
          &sortdir=`DESC `
