Sorting members by id in members-loop

I would like to display the members order by user_id.
I mean that in the list, old members have to be on the top, and new members have to follow.

Is there anything that I can add in members-loop.php?

I’m looking for it since this morning :S

Wow… I didn’t see “type=newest” before now :S
Thank you for help 🙂

Now I only miss to display oldest first, and then newest.
It looks like “order” is not an accepted parameter…

bp-core-classes.php
```
277 
				if ( 'newest' == $type ) {
					$sql['orderby'] = "ORDER BY u.user_id";
					$sql['order'] = "DESC";
```
```
				if ( 'newest' == $type ) {
					$sql['orderby'] = "ORDER BY u.user_id";
					$sql['order'] = "ASC";
```

Don’t hack core files !

It will be overwriten at next BP update.

Use preferably a filter function. Give this a try (add it to bp-custom.php) :
```
function members_dir_oldest_first( $bp_user_query ) {
    if ( 'newest' == $bp_user_query->query_vars['type'] )       
		$bp_user_query->uid_clauses['order'] = "ASC";
}
add_action ( 'bp_pre_user_query', 'members_dir_oldest_first' );
```
