[Plugin: Participants Database] Modify Sorting of List Participants in Admin View

  • Dear xnau,
    I am happy to work with your plugin and it works well.
    However, I would like to modify the initial sorting of participants when clicking on “List Participants” since we will use it with 1000+ entries and it would save some handling steps.
    I hoped to achieve it by only make the one column sortable, that should influence the sorting (last_name). But the initial sorting is always by date-updated.

    I am fine with changing the source code directly and know that this would break updates, but since the plugin is quite heavy, I have difficulties finding this piece where the admin list is queried from the database.

    Could you point me to the right piece of code? Thanks in advance!

    This is easy. The file you want to alter is classes/PDb_List.class.php. Look at line 106 to find the default sorting field.

    Actually, this would make a good addition to the plugin’s options.

    Hey xnau,
    thanks for your advice, it works like a charm. I would love to see it as a plugin option.

    Thanks!

    I just installed this plugin and love it. I’ve been looking for something like this for years.

    I actually came over here to make exactly that suggestion: make the default sort options configurable. So let me second the request.
