Hi
I have just started developing a Sliverstripe site using 3.1. I would like to modify the sort order of the site tree in the CMS,
I have a PeoplePage object and I would like to sort this object in the tree in alphabetical order.
All the other post explain how to do it in older versions can any body tell me how to do this in 3.1
thanks
It should be the similar approach in 3.1 as per older releases. For your peoplepage object define the $default_sort variable
private static $default_sort = "Title ASC";
OK I added the line
private static $default_sort = 'Title ASC';
Into my PeoplePage object but that has had no effect to the order. It is still overwritten by SORT in the CMS SiteTree. I have flushed the cache as well but with no success. I still get this order:
Dominic underwood
Anablee the king
Zoey fine
Joey Blogs
Where is should be
Anablee the king
Dominic underwood
Joey Blogs
Zoey fine
Am I doing something wrong. If I change this line in the SiteTree object then the whole SiteTree order is effected.
private static $default_sort = "\"Title\"";
I'm must be doing something stupid. can anyone help?
Potentially a bug within SilverStripe. AFAIK that should work from a theory point of few. If you can reproduce the issue on a clean 3.1 install it would be good to report it as an issue on github.com/silverstripe so it can be triaged / resolved.
Was this reported, or done something with?
