Hello - Is there a way to change the sort order in the weblinkinfo module? Right now it is showing all my links in chronological order, with the newest links at the bottom. I'd like to show the newest links at the top.

Also, is there a way to stop publishing a link after a certain date? I use the component to link to news articles from similar web sites, but after a month or two I'd like to stop publishing them.

Thanks for a great component!

hi,

Is there a way to change the sort order in the weblinkinfo module?

It is default and a reverse chronological order.(Display Type => New Weblink)
Or, do you want to display it by the oldest first?

Also, is there a way to stop publishing a link after a certain date?

It cannot be done only by this module.
It is because there is no field of the database of the end date of publishing to the public.

Maybe I'm missing something obvious. First, let me clarify: I'm not displaying the results in a module, but in a menu link. Sorry for that error.

I've used a menu type "Web Links --> Category List Layout" to display all the weblinks for a particular category. The results are then sorted with the oldest item first. I don't see any options for changing the sort.

Here is an example: http://stnbeta.com/home/wire-reports

Thanks again for your help!

change to

$this->setState('filter_order', JRequest::getCmd('filter_order', 'date'));
$this->setState('filter_order_dir', JRequest::getCmd('filter_order_Dir', 'DESC'));

Please try it.

However, everything doesn't necessarily go well.

That worked - thanks!
