Is REEorder still available?

hi, impdesigns. If you go to the first page and first post in this forum you can download REEorder.

Hi Cocoaholic, I’ve been using your module quite a bit in my recent projects and it’s really helping a ton! My clients really love having this reorder ability.

Since I’ve been using it a lot lately I’ve also run into a few instances that made me think of some possible additions or tweaks. Thought I’d post them here to get anybody’s thoughts:

I think it would definitely be useful to reorder by Category as well since this module works with weblog entries. I’d imagine that when choosing the weblog there could be a drop down that would ask if you’d like to sort by all, or per category. Then, when reordering it could be broken up into lists depending on how many categories there are. I think this would be a really neat addition though I haven’t looked into how to achieve this myself so I’m not sure how big of an ordeal it would be.

The other thing I thought would be great, albeit probably not quite as useful to everyone, is to be able to reorder by conditionals. I have no idea how this would even work but in my latest venture I’m trying to reorder entries that only have a file included (an optional field). I’m outputting one weblog to 2 different templates. One lists all entries and the other goes to an audio player that only lists those entries with files. I’d love to be able to reorder the latter. Again, this sounds kind of insane and complex…but would possibly be solved by Categories now that I think about it!

Anyway, just things I’ve thought of while using this really awesome module. Thanks again Cocoaholic for your great work on this.

Hmm installed on 1.6.3 and when I go to the list of entries for a weblog with about 1000 entries the page returned is blank - it does work on a weblog with 3 entries, so I know its installed correctly.

I added set_time_limit(300); to the module but it still gives the blank page after about 10 seconds..  ??

I know that there is a 100 entry limit for the weblog entries module, not sure if it’s the same limit you’re running into though. If so maybe there is a way to paginate the entry listings? I checked one of my sites where I’m using the module and we’re at roughly 90 something entries…

That would be awesome! Not sure if it’s possible, but I’d love to see it. Great module, Cocoaholic!

Thanks for your help debugging that relationship caching issue.

And of course, thanks for the module too. smile

I just encountered a major bug when using this module with MSM installs. When you edit the preferences for the module, it deletes all previous reeorder prefs, and only creates preferences based on the weblogs available in your current site. So, instead of checking each preference if it already exists, we blow away all, including those for weblogs on other sites.

I’m working on a fix, where it checks each preferences, first for the weblog setting (if it exists), and then if the settings have changed run an update, or if new settings, run an insert.

This is just a feature request, as I didn’t see it mentioned before: AJAX drag and drop to reorder entries. I really love the way this works in Playa, and it might make a nice addition to REEorder.

Wow, this is good… err Fantastisch.  But then, I want just a little more.  You do not specify to whether we may modify your work in your copyright notice.  May I use this module as a starting point and jump start towards added features I need?  I will use it solely on a non-commercial site.

Like a famous burger company once sais: “Oooh, I’m lovin’ it!”
And I do!

Currently I’m using the module to arrange the order of the menu and pages in a coda-slider-style website, where the sorting of the menu links and entries need to be the same, and the admin need to be able to change the order of these in an easy way.

Reeorder did the trick. Tnx Cocaholic smile

I have a client who is using this to sort pages in a semi-static environment based off of categories. Could someone come up with a way to display another column in the Module with each entries category relationships listed? Thanks in advance!

Hi Guys, I have just come across the same Multiple Site Manager (MSM) issue that AJP described above.

It is a really quick fix, so I thought I would share it with everyone.

Basically you need to open the “mcp.reeorder.php” file, search for the “update_prefs()” function, and then replace with this:

function update_prefs()
    
{
        
global $DB, $LANG, $FNS;
        
        
// only fetch weblogs assigned to current user
        
$assigned_weblogs = $FNS->fetch_assigned_weblogs();
        
        
$data = array();
        foreach (
$assigned_weblogs as $val)
        
{
            $data[
'weblog_id'] = $val;
            
$data['field_id'] = $_POST['reeorder_row_'.$val];
            
$data['sort_order'] = $_POST['sort_order_'.$val];
            
$DB->query("DELETE FROM exp_reeorder_prefs WHERE weblog_id = '".$val."' ");
            
$DB->query($DB->insert_string('exp_reeorder_prefs', $data));
        
}
        
        
return $this->preferences($LANG->line('prefs_updated'));
    
}

The change is simple…instead of deleting everything out of the table, we only delete a single row as needed.  This means that preferences for the other sites are not touched when you make an update.

Hope that this helps someone, as I was pulling my hair out for a short while there!

Cheers.

PS: this module rocks, so a huge thanks to Cocoaholic!!
