General Questions/New to Joomla! 5.x • Re: Module articles-categories: category-links displayed side by side? descending sort of entries?

Hi Andreas,

To address your concerns with displaying the years of your mushroom findings and excursions in a space-saving manner and sorting them in descending order, follow these steps:

1. Displaying Years Side by Side
To make the years appear side by side instead of each on a new line, you can add some custom CSS to your Joomla site. Here’s how:

Go to your Joomla Administrator panel.
Navigate to Extensions > Templates > Styles.
Select your active template (Helix Ultimate).
Click on the "Template Options" button.
Go to the "Custom Code" tab and find the "Custom CSS" field.
Add the following CSS code:
css
Copy code
.module-category-links .category-module a {
display: inline-block;
margin-right: 10px;
}
This CSS will ensure the category links (years) are displayed inline and spaced appropriately.

2. Sorting Years in Descending Order
To sort the years in descending order, you need to adjust the settings in your article category module:

Go to your Joomla Administrator panel.
Navigate to Extensions > Modules.
Find and edit the module displaying your article categories (years).
In the module settings, look for the "Ordering" option.
Set the ordering to "Most Recent First" or "Descending Order."
By setting the ordering option to display the most recent items first, the years will be sorted with the newest year at the top.

Best regards,
Andreas
