Phoca Forum

Hi there

I'm sure this is really easy question but i couldn't find any info on it.

How do i setup the category list view to show the latest categories on top rather than the bottom in a one column view?

thanks! i LOVE this component!!

It's always displaying as the first of the top because when you create a categorie it's normally identified as
id: 1

so it's the first category ehich is shown in your Gallery
i hope this helps you , otehrwise you can set the id's manually
Joomla Admin Control Panel --> Components --> PhocaGallery --> Categories --> (set id's)

Cheers Philipp

is there a way to possible change the PHP code on one of the pages to display them in descendening order instead of ascending?
like...change ASC to DESC somewhere?

You can change the SQL query in models, see e.g.:

components\com_phocagallery\models\category.php

I changed this line in catagory.php

$this->setState('filter_order_dir', JRequest::getCmd('filter_order_Dir', 'ASC));

but nothing changed.
Did i miss something?

Hi, I didn't try it, so I cannot say, but you should change the sql query in model (selecting the categories)

components/com_phocagallery/models/categories.php (I hope it is right, I am not on my PC, so I cannot check it )

i decided just to change the order manually like previously suggested i was wasting too much time trying to get the sql to change.

thanks anyways. still love the component!

ok
