Re: [Tiki-users] How sort by multiple fields using Sort Control Block

Hi,

actually in the documentation 
(http://doc.tiki.org/PluginList-sort-control-block) there's an example 
where a random sorting can be achieved by means of

{sort mode="randommode" 
modes="title_asc,tracker_field_example_asc,tracker_field_ticketNumber_nasc, 
modification_date_nasc"}

where it picks automatically *one of* the listed fields.

Thus I thought maybe even a

{sort mode="???" modes="firstSortingField,secondSortingField,..."}

could be consistent with how things work now ("???" could be 
multipleFieldSorting or something like that)

But I'm no expert of the matter of course, so I'll leave this to others 
who know better :)

@Jonny Ok, I'll add a wish.

Regards,

Alessandro
