Albert Calmus	Wednesday 24 August 2011 7:27:51 am Hello, I use tree fetch function and I would sort by multiples attributes. This means I have a syntax like this : 'sort_by', array( array('attribute', false(), 'new_item/creation_date'), array('attribute', false(), 'old_item/creation_date'), ) It doesn't work and I don't find the solution in the doc : http://doc.ez.no/eZ-Publish/Technical-manual/4.x/Reference/Modules/content/Fetch-functions/list The fact that we cannot use the same sort method many times is written anywhere. Thanks in advance !
Håvard Bergersen	Wednesday 24 August 2011 7:42:54 am Is is the sorting that doesn't work, or does the whole fetch break? Looks like you have a comma to much: 'old_item/creation_date'), <- (Don't know if this i enough to break it but, worth a shot?) EDIT: I don't think you can sort on two different classes....?
Edi Modrić	Wednesday 24 August 2011 7:57:00 am Havard is right, you cannot use attribute sorting if your fetch returns objects of multiple classes. eZ Publish certified developer http://ez.no/certification/verify/350658
Tyler Harms	Wednesday 24 August 2011 9:59:35 am Instead have you tried using the .sortarray? 'sort_by', $your_node_parent.sort_array That way the admin can control how items are sorted.
