Hi Dave,

In the Section Editor, I noticed three options (ListPage Fields, Search Field, and List Order). I couldn't find any documentation on them, so just want to make sure they are what I think they are. Can you run a brief explanation of each ?

Thanks so much,
Avrom

No problem, those are in the docs here:
http://www.interactivetools.com/docs/cmsbuilder/section_editor.html

Basically, "ListPage Fields" are the fields displayed in the CMS Editor Record List beside the "modify" and "erase" links. So you might have 10 fields in a section, but you only want "title" and "location" displayed on that page.

"Search Fields" are the fields that are searched by the CMS Editor Search. So when you're looking at a list of records in the CMS and you enter a keyword to do a search - this controls which fields are searched for that.

and "List Order" is the MySQL "ORDER BY". It's the same as "orderBy' in the list viewers and controls the sort order of the records in the CMS Editor List.

Hope that makes sense. Any other questions just let me know.
