    would like to extend the ultimate picker

    I have a preexisting site that uses the Ultimate Picker. (umbraco 4.6.1). I'd like it to automatically sort the list before displaying. It'd be nice to not have to create a new datatype, but to extend the current datatype. Is that possible?

    Hi Chad

    When you say you want to able to sort the list before displaying are you then thinking in the umbraco backoffice or on the website?

    Hi Chad,

    You'd need to create a new custom datatype for this.  To extend the existing Ultimate PIcker I believe you'd need to modify the Umbraco source (umbraco.editorControls).

    However you could create one that is basically a copy of it, change the namespaces & GUID, and add a sorting option.

    Another thought, you could use the Document Sorter package, which automatically sorts your nodes in the backoffice and keeps them sorted as new ones are created or edited.  You can sort by any field using alpha/numeric/date options and specify which nodes to sort.  The Ultimate Picker should then pick up on this sortorder.

    Hope this helps,
    Tom

    Thanks.

    I ended up going for the quicker solution and using the Document Sorter. It mostly worked as I use autofolders also. The folder that is created doesn't get sorted automatically, but the node gets sorted inside the folder correctly. I figure it would just be easier to create and sort the individual folders once and then it works everytime :-)
