RM 1.1 is it possible to sort category by title ?!

[TBDragon]

hi every one

is it possible to sort category by title ?!

if yes then how ?! hope there is way without implementing an addon to do it >_<

 

[Mike]

It may be possible with a template modification, but alternatively it would require an add-on. It's not a built-in option.

thanks @Mike for answering so i need to play in this code ?! or in another one ?!

<xen:foreach loop="$categories" value="$_category">
                <li class="{xen:if '{$_category.resource_category_id} == {$selectedCategoryId}', selected}">
                    <a href="{xen:link resources/categories, $_category}" {xen:if $_category.category_description, 'title="{xen:helper striphtml, $_category.category_description}" class="Tooltip" data-tipclass="resourceCategoryTooltip"'}>{$_category.category_title}</a>
                    <span class="count">{xen:number $_category.resource_count}</span>
                </li>
            </xen:foreach>

thanks again

I can't remember who/where it was (think it was a @Chris D post) that I saw that added a tab to the resource manager to sort by Title.

In both the resource_category and resource_index templates look for

<ol class="tabs">
            <li class="{xen:if '{$order} == "last_update"', active}"><a href="{xen:link resources, '', '_params={$pageNavParams}', 'order='}">{xen:phrase latest_updates}</a></li>
            <li class="{xen:if '{$order} == "resource_date"', active}"><a href="{xen:link resources, '', '_params={$pageNavParams}', 'order=resource_date'}">{xen:phrase newest_resources}</a></li>
            <li class="{xen:if '{$order} == "rating_weighted"', active}"><a href="{xen:link resources, '', '_params={$pageNavParams}', 'order=rating_weighted'}">{xen:phrase top_resources}</a></li>
            <li class="{xen:if '{$order} == "download_count"', active}"><a href="{xen:link resources, '', '_params={$pageNavParams}', 'order=download_count'}">{xen:phrase most_downloaded}</a></li>
        </ol>

and change to

<ol class="tabs">
            <li class="{xen:if '{$order} == "last_update"', active}"><a href="{xen:link resources, '', '_params={$pageNavParams}', 'order='}">{xen:phrase latest_updates}</a></li>
            <li class="{xen:if '{$order} == "resource_date"', active}"><a href="{xen:link resources, '', '_params={$pageNavParams}', 'order=resource_date'}">{xen:phrase newest_resources}</a></li>
            <li class="{xen:if '{$order} == "rating_weighted"', active}"><a href="{xen:link resources, '', '_params={$pageNavParams}', 'order=rating_weighted'}">{xen:phrase top_resources}</a></li>
            <li class="{xen:if '{$order} == "download_count"', active}"><a href="{xen:link resources, '', '_params={$pageNavParams}', 'order=download_count'}">{xen:phrase most_downloaded}</a></li>
           <li class="{xen:if '{$order} == "title"', active}"><a href="{xen:link resources, '', 'order=title', 'direction=asc', 'type={$typeFilter}'}">{xen:phrase title}</a></li>
        </ol>
