Custom Conditions & Options Break Sorting
Reported by wrecko | November 20th, 2008 @ 02:20 PM
Upon setting additional conditions or options, I notice that sorting does not work. For example:
@search = MyModel.new_search(params[:search])
@search.order_by = [:my_date]
@search.order_as = "DESC"
If I have a table display with a:
remote_order_by_link :my_date
That link will no longer sort by :my_date - I would think that the order_by_link would override the options I've set elsewhere.
I'd like to be able to have the data output with a particular sort order by default, and then sort the columns various ways after it's been displayed. Is there a way to accomplish this?

I also notice that the "remote_per_page_select" seems to stop working as well.

Yep, what you are doing is forcing the order by to be :my_date. What you need to do is this:
@search = MyModel.new_search(params[:search]) @search.order_by ||= :my_date @search.order_as ||= "DESC"
Let me know if you have any issues. That's how I do it in my own apps.
