Hi!

I don’t understand why $default_sort is working in a DataObject I created but not in a ArticlePage (redefinition of Page). In the forum there are other people complaining about that. I know I can use a custom function to sort these pages, But I’m wondering if this is a bug or not…

Regards,
Juan

I think I’ve found it: when you duplicate a page (because of the interest of repeating some content or structure), the new page has the same Sort value as the original. Changing it in the database or moving around the page in the CMS are solutions.

That’s a bug, isn’t it?

could you share what is your custom sort function? I'm having a problem with default sorting the pages

static $default_sort = "Date DESC";
