changing sort order on subscribe form?
February 16, 2008, 08:49:41 am
Hi,

Is there a way to change the sort order on the subscribe form?

http://www.kabissa.org/subscribe

It seems to sort by group ID number. Can I change the ID number somewhere or do I need to delete the groups and recreate them in the order I want?

Cheers,

Tobias

no. There is currently no sort order associated with that query and hence it gets shown by id (mysql default). Your easiest bet would be to hack the code at: CRM/Mailing/Form/Subscribe.php

I've fixed the code to add an ORDER BY title for v2.0

thanks, lobo..

would it be imaginable to use phpmyadmin to change the ID number of the group - or would this mess up other things?

cheers,

can u file an issue for this and we'll fix it in 2.1. We just need to add weights to the group table and sort it on weight. I suspect thats a easier long term solution

regarding fixing the ids using PMA, that should work in most cases. However if u r using smart groups, you need to be a bit more careful since group ids might be used there. as always take a backup of the database etc
