View list - ordering?

Hi Tuan,
I have a group event that people sign up for. This event has 2 extra fields that i have added (teamname and centre)
When the user looks at the registrant list at frontend it is very un-organized. Fex: all the registrants for one event is not listet after each other before registrants from another team is listed.
Can you tell me in wich file i can change the order of the view list at frontend?

I am using version 1.6.2

Hi

Version 1.6.2 is quite old and the code is much different from this version. However, I believe the code for getting list of registrants (so that you can change ordering) are still located in the file components/com_eventbooking/views/registrantlist//view.html.php

Hi again,
Yes i know, i will upgrade after our next upcoming event.
For this event that we have running now, its important to see the teams and also which member are connected to each team. And i checked the file you sent me but i cannot make it work. Looks to me that whatever i do it dont make a difference. Do you have any suggestion?

Hi

I don't think I can have a good suggestions for you in this case because if you want to display registrants organized by team, you will need to have a strong coding skill to do that since the value of custom field for each registrants are stored in a different database table (#__eb_field_value), not in the table #__eb_registrants.

The code which displays registrants are located in the file components/com_eventbooking/views/registrantlist/tmpl/default.php. However, to display it in the way you want, it is not really easy. It will take a good dev about 3 hours of coding to do that, unfortunately.

So unless you have strong coding skill to do this customization, you will have to use it as how it is

I see, and understand. But is there another column i can sort on that will give me a better listing according to the time the registrant has been saved ? Maybe an id that are generated during save or something?
I am thinking maybe this will give a more correct listing than the listing shown today?

I am trying to sort on ID but it does not help. Nothing changes. As you can se below i have changed the following lines:

Try to change it to register_date DESC to see how it goes.

Tuan

Somehow it does not seem to change anything in my list. No matter what i do it does not seem to have an effect.

Maybe it is caching issue ? Could you please check it again ? or if you want, submit a support ticket so that I can check it for you.

Regards,

Tuan
