There's a lot that's unclear here. What kind of value is "pord" ? It should
be numeric, since you're doing a numeric sort. But I don't see
"pord" used in your output.
If you want your table rows to follow the result of the inner list, then
you have to take out the / AND put a second </$list> after the table row
structure.
BUT, you're not following Tobias' example. In the first list you filter by
tag avatar, but in the second you're filtering by "title" tag. So the
connection
between the two lists is a bit random. In Tobias' example, both inner and
outer filters first use tag[avatar] .
If you only have a small number of avatars, you could just filter by
tag[avatar] and use the list field to determine the sort order. The easy
way to do this is to click on an avatar tag,
then drag and drop the listed tiddlers until you have the order you want.
Now when you do a simple <$list filter="[tag[avatar]]">....</$list> it
should sort per the
list.
Good luck!
