Sorting option not available yet in [wpdm_tree]
Hi Shahriar,
Please count this as a second WPDM user who would REALLY REALLY like to sort their files too.
[wpdm_tree file_order=”asc”] would be truly appreciated!
Thanks!
Ok, so no response from the Plugin folks… but I wanted to share a fix that anyone can use to accomplish alphabetic sorts in the WPDM, because like you I simply can’t stop working until these guys “get around to it”.
The fix requires WPDM Extended Shortcodes Plugin
First, find the file wpdm-extended-shortcodes.php
This is located in /plugins/wpdm-extended-shortcodes/
Then go to line 425, and then add the ‘order’ and ‘orderby’ lines so that it looks like so: (You could also use DESC instead of ASC obviously)
$params = array(
'post_type' => 'wpdmpro',
'posts_per_page' => 9999,
'order' => 'ASC',
'orderby' => 'name'
);
I hope this helps others! This should really be baked-in functionality in their “Pro” plugin IMHO. 😉
WPDM Extended Shortcodes is free and when the feature will be available it will be available as free.
Any progress on this change?
I tried this shortcode but no luck.
[wpdm_tree order_by=”title” order=”desc”]
@stimpygato, what should my shortcode read, [wpdm_tree category=”slug” download_link=0 order_by=”name” order=”asc”]? If so, no dice for me.
