i installed Blogs Made Simple module.

inserted {cms_module module='Blogs' params}

(optional) oldestfirst="false" - Setting this to "true" allows you to reverse sort order of entries showing the oldest first.


So finally i inserted {cms_module module='Blogs' oldestfirst="false" }

but the order is not changing.. whether i give true/flse it is showing older posts on top..

what to do? i need newer articles to be "on top"..

remove the oldestfirst-parameter,

{cms_module module='Blogs'}

should work.....

All working well for me here. Just in early testing stages, and I wondered how Blogs Made Simple coped with large numbers of posts - is there pagination? Couldn;t see any mention of this in the settings....

Cheers

Hi! I'm also having some issues with Blogs Made Simple... I'm using version 0.2.2 and I have CMSMS version 1.2.3 installed.

It installed fine and I was able to create a category as well as an entry but when I go to the page to view and click to read more nothing happens. Same thing if I click on comments or the entry heading. I'm not sure if there are some settings I need to do or something I missed after install.

Any advice to get this working for me would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

I am using Blogs Made Simple 0.3.0b2 and have had issues with the oldestfirst parameter also.

I found that editting the GetEntries() function in Blogs.module.php on line 358 to change the database query ORDER BY clause fixed my issue.

I changed...

Code: Select all

ORDER BY comment.createtime
...to...

Code: Select all

ORDER BY entry.createtime
and now blog entries are sorted correctly.

Hope this is of use to some one out there.

I'm using aldo Blogms 0.3.3.1 with the same problem and I've changed the query, but still ascending date was showed.

I think the GetEntries function in Blogs.module.php isn't getting the $oldestfirst param.

When I change the query forced to DESC, it works rigth.

Regards.
