Option to sort on foreign key no longer exists 02 Jul 2013 21:33 #7810

I have a number of grids that display columns from a foreign table. There is no longer an option in the online interface to enable sorting. There used to be. For instance I want to be able to sort "Employees" on "Position -> Label".

Grid columns like that I setup before the option disappeared have the sorting functionality enabled when I download my component, so it is still working - there is just no interface when creating my component online.

This only applies to columns of type "Foreign Key", my string, date and number columns all still have the option to sort.

Sort by field, order select boxes not working 04 Jul 2013 00:55 #7849

The new select boxes that allow the user to change sort order and direction do not work. The following javascript error is thrown in the onchange event:


Uncaught ReferenceError: currentListOrder is not defined joomla.js:7
Joomla.orderTable joomla.js:7
onchange default:320

Sort Order, Foreign key - PLEASE RESPOND 15 Jul 2013 22:38 #10470

I posted a ticket on the 2nd of July that received absolutely no response.

The option to sort list views view on the attribute of a foreign key has disappeared. This functionality is essential to myself and my clients.

For instance, I have the Studies table which has a Facility foreign key. In my grid views, I am displaying Facility -> Label. I would like to be able to sort on Facility -> Label.

This functionality was there before the massive upgrade. Any columns that I set as sortable before the upgrade still export clickable headers, but an error 500 is given when clicking on them.

Do you plan to fix this anytime soon?

Please respond!

For starters it's just so easy to design an app in a way that I'm used to i.e. database first then views followed by customization. The fork system is pure brilliance from a developer standpoint as I can override things and still add and update my projects with minimal effort! Truly amazing to be able to build components in Joomla using incremental refinement without having to do everything by hand. Thanks for the great tool! I am so much more productive now than ever and I can't imagine building components any other way!!!!
