Hi Sakis,

in all my pages that i use your Plugin I have a Blog view and recreate it in the Search results (so it looks the same).  Most of the time the articles are ordered via date, so that`s no problem.

But in one site i need the order to be the actual "Article Order". In the options of the Jfilter Pro Menu Item i only find in the "Filtering Results Sort Field" and i can only sort by Title, Date and Price(?).

do you know a way to change the order of the search results to the actual Article Order like it is possible in the Blog view?

regards
Sascha

Hi

Unfortunately the only way to do that atm, is by hacking the model class and changing the sql query.

But we can also consider adding it to the core.

Kind regards,

Hi Sakis,

yeah, it would be really nice, if it would be added to the core.

In my opinion, the filtered results should always look like the blog. 

It would be cool, if you could chose if you want a search result list or a blog view.

Regards Sascha

Unfortunately we cannot use any layout from other components.

The only layout that uses the same objects and properties as the JFilters one is the one used by the Smart Search.
Also we wanted the search and the filtering results to have the same look and feel as they can be used in combination.

So this was our decision and i think it makes sense.

If you think it, you can have a single layout for almost any kind of page/content.

Kind regards,

no problem,

at the moment I rebuild the search list layout with an override so it looks like the blog view :-)

But now more sorting options are needed. As said in the first post. That would be the most important thing, the rest i can (re)build myself.

I'm excited for this to happen. 

Thanks
