  Is there a way to change the order that the categories appear in, without adding a numeral or something to the name?

  Thanks!

  No – categories are coded to appear in alphabetical order. The only way you can change that is by placing a numeral before the name.
  Example:
  Apples
  Bananas
  Cherries

  1 Cherries
  2 Apples
  3 Bananas

  I believe you can also put spaces in front to manipulate where they end up. One space ends up in front of no spaces…two spaces ends up in front of that, etc. Can’t find that thread, but I vaguely remember it.

  @rain:
  yeah, that can work, but it’s theme-dependent
