How can I change the default sort order on our Membership Directory page to Last Name (ascending)?
This is my shortcode: [emember_extended_summary_list fields=”last_name,first_name,phone,website”]
Also, when someone clicks DETAILS is there a way to hide the Membership Directory when it opens on a (new) page so you don’t have to scroll all the way to the bottom of the page to see their information? It would be nice if it showed that Member’s info only.
You can create a link like the following which will sort the list by last name.
[http://example.com/member-directory/?orderby=last_name&order=asc]
When users click on this link to go to this page, they will see the sorted list.
The details page should open in a NEW Page (not the same page). You have a listing page and then you have a details page (they are 2 different pages). So I am not sure what you are talking about regarding the scrolling.
That workaround solution (using a link) would work if the Details page only displayed the Member’s details. However…
The Details page displays the names in the original sort order again (based on the order in which their accounts were created, rather than by last name) and you must scroll to the bottom of that page to see the member’s details.
The details page shows the details of ONE member only (the one you are viewing) so I am not sure how that can happen.
Let me check your pages.
1) Share the URL of the member list page (the page you created according to step 7).
2) Share the URL Of the details page (the page you created according to step 1).
Thank you for your assistance!
I’m not sure what you mean by step 7 and step 1…
Here’s the Member list page: [http://www.asmac.org/membership-directory/]
Here’s the Member list page, sorted by last name, ascending: [http://www.asmac.org/membership-directory/?orderby=last_name&order=asc]
When you click on a member’s “Details” it displays the entire directory again – on a new page, in the default sort order – and the member’s detail is at the bottom of the page.
Did I configure something incorrectly? Is there a way to show just the member’s details on the Details page?
FYI: I am using the eMember Form Builder and eMembers Profile Extended addons together to create this directory.
That’s wrong setup which is why you are having this problem.
What is the first thing you see when you go to the profile extended admin menu? You will see a section called “Usage Instruction”. It has 8 steps. Please follow those steps to setup the addon correctly.
The same steps are outlined in the documentation of this addon also:

Aha! I had both shortcodes (Member List and Member Details) on the same page. Thank you for the assistance!
I know this is old, but I did not want to open the same question as a new topic. I read this answer:

I need this as a menu item not just a link. I have tried adding the link to my menu as a custom link, but it is not working. How can I do this as a menu item? I want the directory listed in ascending order by last name.
A custom link in your menu item should work fine. It is just a URL. What happens when you click on that link in the menu?
I am using Astra Theme. When I click on the link in the menu the URL has turned to this: https://divorcefinancialplanner.org/member-directory-2/orderby=last_name&order=asc/ Notice that the ? in front of “orderby” is removed.
