Topic: Re-ordering News Items in CP

I think a definite "must" would be the ability to change the order of News items in CP

Hope this comes into future versions.

Not sure, but can't you do that by changing the dates of the news item? Earlier dates come before later dates.

I must admit I hadn't looked for that, and I suppose that would work, although I would prefer a simpler, visual, method of re-ordering.

Other parts of the system have a sort order (orderid), which would make this just that little bit quicker and easier to use, I feel.

In the meantime, when I'm next editing the News/Articles, I'll try your date suggestion - thanks.

You are right...much easier with orderid and it could lead to a mod where you could easily rotate the news items so when the page refreshes, the news items re-oder themselves on the home page. I use the banner feature of vldPersonals to do that with content so when the page refreshes, different content appears on my home page to keep the search engines coming back.

You can use this jquery to easily sort the results. Works great !

Also in the news list in CP, it is ordered by A-Z, that should be by last send.
Is it that what you're talking about?
