Re: Making Paginator first sort direction DESC
It's not implemented yet. But you can do the following:
copy the paginator helper to app/views/helpers. Then edit line 223:
instead of
$dir = 'asc';
write this:
$dir = 'asc';
if(isset($options['direction'])){
$dir = $options['direction'];
}
Now in your view:
$paginator-
>sort('description','fieldname',array('direction'=>'desc'));

Re: Making Paginator first sort direction DESC
Actually you can do this in your view:
$paginator->sort('Name','name',array('direction'=>'desc'));
At least the API says that. But I tried and it didn't work. Maybe it's
not yet implemented in the current 1.2beta. Or my syntax is not
correct. Anyone any idea?

Re: Making Paginator first sort direction DESC
In the end my solution was to copy the paginator helper class to my
application helpers directory, then in the sort method swap every
instance of "asc" and "desc". It's not a great solution, but it works.
I'd love to hear about better solutions to get the initial sort
direction to be desc instead of asc.

Re: Making Paginator first sort direction DESC
Thanks Marcin.
I don't think i've been entirely clear. I can easily set the sort
order programmatically, but when the user first clicks on a link to
sort a column it automatically sorts ASC. I'd like to change that
behavior to default first to DESC. I can do it by hacking around with
the cake source, or doing it myself, I just wondered if there was a
way built in, since it'd probably be a pretty common thing to try to
do. If not i'll add it and see if I can work out how to submit a
change request.
Cheers

Thanks for the suggestion, but unfortunately it didn't work for me.
SQL Error: 1054: Unknown column 'DESC' in 'order clause'
I'll spend some time to work this out at some point, i'll post when I
do, unless someone's worked it out already and can tell me.

Hi all,
Paginator's great, like the rest of Cake, but there's one little thing
