Adding new fields (after Content field)

3 March 2009 at 5:22am
I think I'm missing something obvious, but as per Tutorial 2, to add new fields to the CMS, you write:
function getCMSFields() {
$fields = parent::getCMSFields();$fields->addFieldToTab('Root.Content.Main', new CalendarDateField('Date'), 'Content');
$fields->addFieldToTab('Root.Content.Main', new TextField('Author'), 'Content');
return $fields;
}This works, but all the fields are added before the "Content" field. Is there a way to re-order them so that the Content field shows up first in the CMS, and all the other fields underneath that one?
Thanks for any help!
Karl.

Welcome to Silverstripe !
That is because your new field will be added before content (last parameter)....
API-DOC
void addFieldToTab (string $tabName, FormField $field, [string $insertBefore = null])* string $tabName: The name of the tab or tabset. Subtabs can be referred to as TabSet.Tab or TabSet.Tab.Subtab. This function will create any missing tabs.
* FormField $field: The FormField object to add to the end of that tab.
* string $insertBefore: The name of the field to insert before. Optional. -

Thank you -- I knew it was something that was staring me in the face! Removing 'Content' made everything better.
And thanks for the welcome!
