MarcC Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 I have a bunch of events in the back end of a site which are sorted by date, and wondered if it's also possible to sort them by title within the date selection, for example using a "sort=date,sort=title" selector. In this way, an event called "A Day for Children" would show up before "Zero Hour" if they're on the same day. I tried to make this change in the parent template's Family tab, under "Sort settings for children," however I don't see a way to use multiple sorting criteria. Is this possible somehow? The site is currently running 2.8.62. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin S Posted March 12, 2020 Share Posted March 12, 2020 You could use a hook... $wire->addHookBefore('ProcessPageList::find', function(HookEvent $event) { $selector = $event->arguments(0); /* @var Page $page */ $page = $event->arguments(1); if($page->template == 'your_parent_template') { $selector .= ", sort=date, sort=title"; $event->arguments(0, $selector); } }); ...or this module: https://modules.processwire.com/modules/process-page-list-multiple-sorting/ 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
