Maintain sort order of a collection after adding a film

Post by iceblox »

Scenario:

- I sort a collection based on a criteria (e.g. Year ↓).
- I add a new film to the collection.
- This resets the sort order of the collection to alphabetical.
- I have to re-sort the collection.

What can I do to maintain the sort order?

That sounds like functionality we just have forgotten to include. I've added a bug to our database, so we'll hopefully address this soon.

If you're doing this, please also have it work when a film is removed. It seems like it does keep the sort order but it pushes you back to the first page.

We fixed the issue with the collection re-sorting after adding a movie from the Film Database page; we'll still have to look into the issue about pushing back to the first page after deleting a film.

From now on... after deleting a film from a specific page in the collection, you won't be bumped back to the first page. Thanks again for alerting us to this issue!
