Order of records

Hi Hannah, 

Are you using a getRecords function to retrieve your records? If so you could use an orderBy key in it to ensure that the newest records are displayed first:

  // load records from 'blog'
  list($blogRecords, $blogMetaData) = getRecords(array(
    'tableName'   => 'blog',
    'loadUploads' => true,
    'allowSearch' => false,
    'orderBy'     => 'createdDate DESC'
  ));


This is just example code, so you'll have to make a few changes to get it working with your site. 

So the orderBy key would cause the records to be sorted by createdDate in decening order, which will display the newest records first.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks

Greg

Hi Grey,

Sorry, I didn't mean records displaying on a page, I meant actually in the back end. I have a client who is a theatre company and all of their shows are added as a multi record. When she adds a new show it is added to the end of the list (they are on about 3 pages of shows when 100 per page are shown) and she has to manually drag it. She would like new ones to be displayed by order of entry, newest at top (of page 1).

Thanks!
