Order by priority: &orderby=" @config.custom.position

Question

Hi, I am wonder if it's possible to sort the posts by priority adding a custom text field for give the posts a priority number:

{{#getPostsByTags (concatenate "count=10&allowed=published&tag_as=id" "&excluded_status=hidden" "&tags=" id "&orderby=" @config.custom.position "&ordering=asc")}}

It's not working, what I am doing wrong?

What value does the position option return? Note that the orderby param only supports the following values: publishedAt and modifiedAt.

[georgkaser]

It's a text value. Can be a number or alphabet (a,b,c..).

I am a web developer since 2005 and I know from my experience, that my customers are asking me to sort posts (articles) by their order priority. It must be possible. Maybe I can do it with this custom helpers?

Not now, but most likely, we'll add it in an upcoming Publii release (in a few days).

Wow, cool - thank you. Please add it as a number field.

I love your phantastic CMS - thank you for your great work. You will hear from me again with some money.

In v.0.45 the syntax like orderby=customField&customField=xyz&compareLanguage=fr will be allowed in the {{getPostsByTags}}
