/blog/code/BlogEntry.php

// By specifying a callback, you can alter the SQL, or sort on something other than date.
		if($retrieveCallback) return call_user_func($retrieveCallback, 'BlogEntry', $filter, $limit, $order);

How do you specify?

Thanks!

Hi prawnstar,

Which version of blog are you using?

This is in BlogTree class now tag 0.4.1.

What it does is calling a function that you define in order to get blog entries sorted by a different criteria.

hope it helps.

cheers

Thanks Carlos!

I was using 0.4.0, but I'm downloading 0.4.1 now.

Hi Carlos,

I downloaded 0.4.1 but still don't see a way to change this behavior without changing the function inside the /blog/code/BlogTree.php file. Is there no way to change this without hacking the script?

I'm extending the BlogHolder class. Can it be overridden there?

Thanks!

hi prawnstar,

you can do this

class MyClass extends Page {

   function MyFunc(){
     // return entries sorted by something....
   }
}

then in your code (where you want to return the entries something like this:

$blog = DataObject::get_one('BlogHolder');

$entries = $blog->Entries('','','',array('MyClass','MyFunc'),'');

In this way you can create your own function and return entries sorted by whatever you want without change the core code.

Hope it helps

cheers
Carlos
