EE 2.02?

leeaston 25 Apr 2010 18:08 question,

Hi Low, just installed reorder on EE 202, but it's not reordering. Will you be updating it to work with the latest and greatest EE release?

Thanks very much
Lee

   Hey Lee,
   
   I just tried it under EE 2.0.2, and it's working properly for me. Can you elaborate?
   
   - Have you added the reorder field to your channel?
   - Have you edited the settings for that field, making sure it results in available entries?
   - Are entries showing, but is the drag and drop not working (but saving does work)? If so, can you verify if the javascript file is loaded (check the source for a <script> tag containing "C=javascript&M=load&package=low_reorder&file=low_reorder"

   I must be doing something silly.
   
   - Have you added the reorder field to your channel?
   I created a low reorder field type in an existing field group, which is already tied to a channel.
   
   - Have you edited the settings for that field, making sure it results in available entries?
   Which settings?
   
   - Are entries showing, but is the drag and drop not working (but saving does work)?
   Entries are showing OK and I can drag/drop and save them.

   You can change the filtering settings on a per channel/field combination.
   
   Are you ordering by the custom order field in your templates? From the docs:
   
   

   In your templates, you need to tell the {exp:channel:entries} tag to order by the Low Reorder field you want. Make sure you don’t disable the custom fields. Also, the filter settings (like status and categories) must be reflected in your tag parameters. For example:

   
   
   

   {exp:channel:entries channel="services" status="open|featured" orderby="low_reorder_field" sort="asc"}
      <!-- more code here -->
    {/exp:channel:entries}
