Edit Sort By

Is there a way to remove some of the items in the sort by drop down list? I am not permitting download so the presence of it is odd to the user.

Thanks

... really? I thought I was doing a pretty good job of keeping up with the questions ... sorry

to remove Downloads from the sort box, you would need to change code and re-compile (in VS2003) then re-deploy the module. The code is in Repository.ascx.vb. in the ParseHeaderTemplate() function .. find the case statement for the SORT tag and remove the highlighted lines...

Case "SORT"

              Dim objDDL As New DropDownList

              Dim objItem As ListItem

              objDDL.EnableViewState = True

              objDDL.ID = "cboSort"

              objDDL.AutoPostBack = True

              objItem = New ListItem(Localization.GetString("SortByDate", LocalResourceFile), "UpdatedDate")

              objDDL.Items.Add(objItem)

              objItem = New ListItem(Localization.GetString("SortByDownloads", LocalResourceFile), "Downloads")

              objDDL.Items.Add(objItem)

              objItem = New ListItem(Localization.GetString("SortByUserRating", LocalResourceFile), "RatingAverage")

              objDDL.Items.Add(objItem)

              objItem = New ListItem(Localization.GetString("SortByTitle", LocalResourceFile), "Name")

              objDDL.Items.Add(objItem)

              objItem = New ListItem(Localization.GetString("SortByAuthor", LocalResourceFile), "Author")

              objDDL.Items.Add(objItem)

              objItem = New ListItem(Localization.GetString("SortByCreatedDate", LocalResourceFile), "CreatedDate")

              objDDL.Items.Add(objItem)

              If mSortOrder <> "" Then

                objDDL.Items.FindByValue(mSortOrder).Selected = True

              End If

              objDDL.CssClass = oRepositoryBusinessController.GetSkinAttribute(xmlHeaderDoc, "SORT", "CssClass", "normal")

              AddHandler objDDL.SelectedIndexChanged, AddressOf cboSortOrder_SelectedIndexChanged

              hPlaceHolder.Controls.Add(objDDL)
