    Default Categories Listed Alphabetically Left To Right vs. Down Each Column

    Currently have have my category pages (xxxx.com/c-) listing my categories left to right. I'm wanting them to list up and down alphabetically. I currently have 3 columns if that matters.

    Is it possible to change? If so, what code needs to be changed and what files?

    Example now with 3 columns :

    A B C
    D E F
    G H I
    J K L

    I want it to do this:

    A E I
    B F J
    C G K
    D H L

    They all probably have a DisplayOrder=1, so if you changed the DisplayOrder then they would come out in your preferred order.

    My problem is I have around 300 subcategories under the parent category. I have to have them in alphabetical order because they are team names.

    I tried the method you mention but the problem is when I add another team it throws off the sort order and every subcategory has to be assigned a new number.

    Does anyone know if this can be hard coded?
