   Upgrading from 2.76 - 3.12

I was happy to see a "priority" field in the database, I'm assuming it's there to change the order of displaying categories,  because we'd made a custom field for that. I also see where it's referenced by some category display code in the cart.

What I'm not seeing is a way to manage that field.  Nothing in manageCategories.asp, nothing in add/edit category pages.

	I'm running 3.12a. On manageCategories.asp, there is a link toward the top right of the content area next to "Find a category" that reads "Order." Clicking on this gives me a screen where I can update the category ordering using numbers 1-*. Hope this is what you are looking for? I'm a PC newbie, so if I misunderstood...just trying to help!

	Thank you very much, I didn't see that link at all. I was expecting to see the categories listed in the designated order with the option to update the order on that page. That must have been something I also customized and forgot I did it. I appreciate you taking time to alert me to what I was missing.
