First person with an elegant answer gets it!<div><br></div><div><b>Question</b></div><div>How do I order posts in the loop by whether or not it is in a category, then by date?</div><div><br></div><div><b>Context</b></div>
<div>
<b></b>Suppose I have 10 posts, of which 5 are in the category "Sports" and 5 are in the category "Blog News". Both "Sports" and "Blog News" posts are mixed together chronologically. "Sports" and "Blog News" posts share other categories and tags. I want both types of posts to be present in the loop regardless of whether it's the front page or category archive view, but ordered by "Sports" and "blog news" and then by date. How is this most elegantly accomplished?<br clear="all">
