Post How to sort cartlinks 
The question was asked in another post, but I don't think it was answered.

The files in the html sub-directory that are used to produce the cartlink names don't appear to be sorted by anything.

How do we change the sorting of cartlinks?

I'm not sure we ever truly got a solution on this.
I think it was more sorted by date the file was uploaded.

Tried the upload order with no success.

Tried the modified time too.

Seems to depend on the order in which the server fetches the list of "*.htm?" files from the html subdirectory.

I guess I need a little code to parse and reorder the $cartlinks variable in the header file.

Agoracart version 5.2.005

website: http://www.dkdancewear.com/agora/agora.cgi

Trying to match the clients website page order.

I have iframes as pages (I hear they may be problemmatic) in an attempt to be somewhat object oriented.

You will want to get rid of iframes as soon as you can. Not really a good reason to use them within AgoraCart.

Anyway, I did find something on the sort. It does require hacking a core file, so be careful and make backups *before* doing any editing:

agora.cgi file. near the bottom you will find the sub cartlinks. below that you'll find...
Code:

  opendir(PAGES,"./html")||die("Cannot open Directory!");
  @clinknames = readdir(PAGES);
  for $clinknames(@clinknames) {

just add "sort" to the array like so...
Code:

  opendir(PAGES,"./html")||die("Cannot open Directory!");
  @clinknames = readdir(PAGES);
  for $clinknames(sort @clinknames) {


I hope it works for you.

Thanks scottcrew

To sort $cartlinks alphabetically, agora.cgi must be edited to include 'sort' in the code snippit below.

opendir(PAGES,"./html")||die("Cannot open Directory!");
@clinknames = readdir(PAGES);
for $clinknames(sort @clinknames) {
