a function to hold the active fc-template and active orderby via cookie?

Hi,

it`s possible to integrate a function or feature that holds the active template and active orderby via cookie like the function to hold the active tab in template "presentation"?.

I think this would be very useful:)

Hello

this concerns only if you navigate OFF the view, and then reopen the category URL

Joomla framework allows setting cookies when retrieving URL variables,
(until browser window is closed) (user state cookie set by Joomla framework)

but we need some criteria for it

e.g. we can can set
- per category ID,
- per tag ID
- per category ID + tag ID, if both present

for other cases we can
- view type (e.g. favourites view) PLUS category ID if present
using only favourites may cause warning because different categories allow different templates

so before remembering via cookie we should decide the above, and make sure we do not cause problems

Here is a v3.0.x ehancement issue

Hello

ok, thanks for your answer.

I`m thinking about it. Perhaps I find a solution without cause problems. Before we change any, it`s better to think about exactly, what`s the best solution.

Now, I see I have some problemes with the favourites. First I have to look for the reason. I`ll get back.

Hello

i think the proper way to set these
is using the criteria that i described above

Hello

then I think "view type (e.g. favourites view) PLUS category ID ".

Tag ID would be also nice to search in other categories by active-search-tags. I hope that is what you think about by using Tag ID.

I use "Favoured Items" instead "favourites" so the warning would be at least in my case not a probleme.

"Favourites" is not very useful in my case because I use many categories with many favourites. Especially the same view-type(s) for favourites are important for me. Unfortunately I have some problemes with "Favoured Items"". But for that I create a new topic.
