Sort links By Rating.

[DGTALGOODIES]

HI

How can i make listings be sorted by default to Rating.

[FSGDAG]

Ohhh... I know this one... I know this one....

*wait*

I cant remember now!

I'm sure Bruce or echo@ knows. Its just changing a setting in a file

[Bruceper]

browse.php line 113

$links_obj->query .= " order by premium desc, $_COOKIE[COOKIE_SORT_BY] $_COOKIE[COOKIE_SORT_ORDER]";

change the order by premum desc to whatever you'd like

[DGTALGOODIES]

Does the line 116 need to be changed?

And when i browse the top rated listings r at the bottom.

[Bruceper]

you would need to add multiple items to sort by, such as

order by premium desc, bid desc, votes

I don't get it it still shows top rated listings last, this is what i used.

if ($_COOKIE['COOKIE_SORT_BY']) {
$links_obj->query .= " order by rating, premium desc, $_COOKIE[COOKIE_SORT_BY] $_COOKIE[COOKIE_SORT_ORDER]";
}
else {
$links_obj->query .= " order by rating, premium desc";
}

Thanks for the help!

Your browser could have them sorted differently (set by cookie) and your browse.php could be cached. Clear your browser cookies and your template cache.

This way it works.

if ($_COOKIE['COOKIE_SORT_BY']) {
$links_obj->query .= " order by rating desc, $_COOKIE[COOKIE_SORT_BY] $_COOKIE[COOKIE_SORT_ORDER]";
}
else {
$links_obj->query .= " order by rating desc";

and don't forget power_search.php

Just one last thing how can i remove the option rating in the sort by drop down option.

Thanks

[Bruceper]

That should be in block.sort_links.html
