    Order by datepicker field

    I'm currently setting up my first page in Umbraco 4.9.

    In my news section I would like to sort the child pages by a newsDate filed I’ve created in the doctype.

    I’ve tried documentSorter, but I can't get it to work.

    Can anybody tell me how to sort the child pages in the backend?

     

    Best regard

    Morten

    Hi Morten,

    Try this

    <xsl:sort select="newsDateProperty" order="descending"/>

    Hi Fuji, thank you for a quick response. :)

    I would like to sort the pages automatically in the treeview in Umbraco backend.

    Hi Morten,

    The "Document Sorter" package should be perfect for this - are you getting errors, or does it just seem to not do anything?

    Matt (the package author) is usually very responsive, so I'd recommend you check the dedicated forum for the package and maybe raise the issue there if you can't find any similar issues already reported.

    Hi Chriztian.

    It does nothing so I thought about making my own event handler that sorted the nodes width a certain alias. But if I can get document sorter to work, it would be a lot easier. I'll try to raise the issue the dedicated forum. :)

    I never got an answer, so I made my own eventhandler, that runs through the subpages and orders them by the value in the datepicker field. :)
