3. How should I sort that attribute, ascending or decending? (If none defined, then sort ascending)

As I don't really understand PHP, this may be overly simplistic, but what happens if you simply remove steps 2 and 3? Is the default behaviour to simply fetch display in the order they are entered, or is there some inherit sort behaviour that needs to be overwritten?

You are 100% correct and it gave me a headache just trying to get it to work. Definitely not simplistic. Most likely it could be coded better, but it was the best I could do with what I had. One day, I will rewrite it all and make it a lot better, but not for awhile. For now, we are stuck with my hogwash mod of code. Initially, back in the previous versions, it did a sort by userid or username. So many people asked to have the usergroups sorted in whatever way they wanted though. I did my best.

Of course the downside to that approach would be that you'd be limited to using the same user profile fields for both rosters. However, as I said, I don't really understand PHP so don't know how feasible such an idea would be.

Actually, I set something up for my guild officers where they could see some additional columns. It works along a similiar way to what you just described. I think it is doable, but I need to come up with a way to make it all configurable by the admins. I was thinking of making two ShowRoster Setting pages, but as soon as I give the option for two rosters, someone will want three. I have another idea that will deal with that problem and should make it much easier for me. I want to get the next version published that fixes a few problems and adds some more options...and then I will begin work on the multiple rosters.
