Hi,

i have a DOM set up like this

		// setup event manager
		$manager = new DataObjectManager(
			$this, // Controller
			'PrgEvents', // Source name
			'PrgEvent', // Source class
			array(
					'DayInMonth' => 'Tag',
					'Title' => 'Titel der Veranstaltung',
					'Tagline' => 'Kurzbeschreibung',
					'DOMThumbnail' => 'Flyer',
					'FeatureYesNo' => 'Feature',
			),
			'getCMSFields_forPopup',
			null,
			'DayInMonth ASC'
		);

The sorting works fine when i first open the DOM, but after adding a new DataObject the sorting defaults back to what i believe is "Created" instead of "DayInMonth".

Is there a simple way to override this behaviour?

Alternatively, is there a way to disable column sorting altogether for a DOM, and only and always sort by a specific field?

I searched the forums for a while now but could not find a solution. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

When did you last update? That's a bug I've been struggling with for a while, but I believe it got all patched up about a month ago.

Hi UncleCheese,

thanks for your quick reply!

I downloaded r343 just an hour ago, and i also tried a svn check out at
http://carlinowebdesign.svn.beanstalkapp.com/modules/trunk/dataobject_manager/

but both didn't seem to change anything.

Is it enough to replace the contents of the dataobject_manager folder and run a dev/build?

Also, the new setWideMode and default click action are not working, so maybe something went wrong when i downloaded the code?

Sorry if this seem to be noob questions, and thanks again for helping!

What do you mean when you say "not working?"

As far as i understood the default link action on the row should be enabled by default(?), but it's not happening here, everything's just like before. I tried disabling my customDOMActions, but no change.

Then, calling setWideMode like this:

$manager = new DataObjectManager(
...code here
);

$manager->setWideMode(true);

throws an error
"Uncaught Exception: Object->__call(): the method 'setwidemode' does not exist on 'DataObjectManager'"

I also looked around the source and couldn't find the function there. Are these changes supposed to be rolled in to r343 already?

As for the sorting issue mentioned above, I'm having this problem on both r335 and r343

Ok, I see the problem.

1) I hadn't committed the setWideMode() feature

2) The sort debacle isn't as fixed as I thought it was. Please insert this block of code to DataObjectManager.php, after line 115 (after the "isset($_REQUEST['ctf'][$this->Name()])" block)

		if($this->sourceSort) {
		  list($field,$dir) = explode(" ", $this->sourceSort);
		  $this->sort = trim($field);
		  $this->sort_dir = trim($dir);
		}

Let me know how that works. If it does, undo the change, and I'll commit it to SVN. I don't have time to test it at the moment. :(

I tried this on a fresh install of 2.3.4 & r343, it looks great.

Sorting works, and sort order remains intact after updating or adding Dataobjects.

The default link action (edit) is working now too, automagically : )

But, something weird is happening to my customDOMActions. They appear on first loading the DOM, but after updating or adding a DataObject, the buttons disappear.

Code is:

   public function customDOMActions()
   {
      $title = $this->FeatureThis ? "Nicht featuren" : "Featuren";
      $image = $this->FeatureThis ? "featured-yes.png" : "featured-no.png";

      return new DataObjectManagerAction(
         $title,
         "PrgEvent_Controller/toggle-feature/$this->ID",
         "refresh",
         "mysite/images/icons/$image"
      );
   }

Thanks anyway UncleCheese, you've been a great help already!

Never mind, it's working now- Guess this was a Browser Cache Issue..

Awesome UncleCheese, i guess i owe you one : )
