addWhere(), oddOrder() 10 Nov 2016 10:05 #14684

Hi Jocelyn,
are these database query overrides still working in forked views? ....
$model->addOrder('a.creation_date');
$model->addWhere('a.published', '1');
$model->setState('list.ordering', 'a.yourfield');
$model->setState('list.direction', 'desc');
Im working in the fork/views/myview/tmpl/default.php and fork/views/myview/tmpl/default_grid.php - trying to modify the collection data with this code - but it is being ignored.
Just call me Chris :)

You can only use those statements BEFORE the getItems() call.

So it doesn't work in the template.
You need to fork the view.
Coding is now a piece of cake

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!!!!
