Issue:Using both tablesortcol and columns together resolve out of order
From FollowTheScore
| Description: | Using both tablesortcol and columns together resolve out of order |
| Extension / Version: | DPL / 1.8.9 |
| Type / Status: | Bug / open |
Problem
Using code similar to this:
{{#dpl: | tablesortcol = 1 | category = Sample | table = class="datatable-action",-,#,Name | include = {Template}:Number:Name | columns = 3 }}
It appears that the data is returned, split into three columns THEN sorted by column 1. I would expect the data to be sorted first, then split into three columns. Otherwise, the data is unreliable.
Reply
Indeed, Tablesort_and_columns shows the effect: Splitting happens first. I am afraid this will be very hard to change so I suggest that you do not use those two options in combination.
- Well darn. Any other odd creative suggestions? Any way to do first half/last half tables?
