Sort Documents By Date was created by MyWorld

How can I get the documents to sort "by date" (showing most current date first)?

Every time I add a new document I have to use the sort order to get the most recent document to show first on the list.

Thank you!!

Hi

You want to change it from front-end or back-end of your site ? Could you please send me the link to the page ?

I would like to have the option to sort the documents by date in the backend so that it displays by date in the front end.

This would be a nice feature to add to the component.

Hi

For now, please use the solution below :

1. Open the file administrator/components/com_dms/models/documents.php

2. Find the code below :

Code:

$filter_order_Dir	= $mainframe->getUserStateFromRequest( $option.'filter_order_Dir',	'filter_order_Dir',	'',				'word' );

3. Change it to :

Code:

$filter_order_Dir	= $mainframe->getUserStateFromRequest( $option.'filter_order_Dir',	'filter_order_Dir',	' DESC  ',				'word' );

After that, it should work as expected .
