Issue:Order by title does not properly sort in descending

Description:	Editing Order by title does not properly sort in descending
Extension / Version:	DPL   /   1.6.4
Type / Status:	Bug   /   closed

Problem

The order=descending parameter just seems ignored. My example is the following:

  namespace=Logs
  count=7
  resultsheader=Logs from last week
  order=descending
  ordermethod=title
  shownamespace=false

 ...I get the list ordered ascending. Interestingly, if I add:

  addlasteditor=true

 ...then it seems to sort properly. This seems like a bug to me.

 I can resolve by adding the above and then forcing the format like so:

 format   = ,\n* %TITLE%,,

 ...but this seems like it should be unnecessary.

Use debug=3 to check the SQL statement which is generated by DPL. If you feel it is wrong leave an example here in this wiki. Then I'll have a look. Gero 21:03, 16 January 2008 (CET)
