[SOLVED] About turning on/off item ordering in backend items manager after clicking on a column

Hi,

My client was complaining that there wasn't anyway to turn off ordering.

Once you click ordering - it continues to order. Is there anyway to turn it off after you have finished ordering?

Cheers,

Robert

I am thinking if you press the button to clear filters ("x") - it should turn off item ordering. It seems logical.

Hello

it is not backend items manager , it is other views,
and even more annoying is that in categories backend manager:
- you cannot restore the "Category Tree order" after you select any ordering
(which is why the following commit was made and less about what you suggest, since the item's manager order can be just set by clicking on the column again, so i don't think it is much of a problem)

- we went along with (re-)setting the default order when "Clear Filters" button is pressed
- a change for backend users and files manager they will order by ID reverse as default order
- items manager in old installations will be unordered (aka ID incrementing) but in new installation it will be ID reverse

the usage of ID is to match Joomla article manager order and also effectively show the most recently created item
- you can still select item's manager default order in component parameters
