by clicking at the table headers? no this is is not there because table columns contain random flexicontent fields,

you can display a drop-down select for ordering in every category page by title, author, newest, hits , reverse the previous , etc

-- Flexicontent is Free but involves a big effort on our part.
Like the our support? (for a bug-free FC, despite having a long list of functions) Like the features? Like the ongoing development and future commitment to FLEXIcontent?

Hi,

with the plugin tablesorter, you can make this very easy ... no matter if columns contain random flexicontent fields
because the syntax is simply

Code:

<table id="myTable">
<thead>
<tr>
    <th>Last Name</th>
    <th>First Name</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
<tr>
    <td>Smith</td>
    <td>John</td>
</tr>
<tr>
...

Code:

<script language=”javascript” type=”text/javascript”>
$(document).ready(function()
{
$(“#myTable”).tablesorter();
}
);
</script>

but of course you can also do it so

Yes, but Javascript ordering cannot work with multiple-page content lists (category/tags/favourites views)

Drop down select ordering will work with multiple pages since it is used inside the DB query that produces the content (item) list
and it supports:

"Use Default Order"
"Added -- Oldest first"
"Added -- Most Recent first"
"Modified - Most Recent first"
"Title -- Alphabetical"
"Title -- Alphabetical Reverse"
"Author -- Alphabetical"
"Author -- Alphabetical Reverse"
"Popularity -- Most hits first"
"Popularity -- Least hits first"
"Content 's ordering attribute"
