complex sorting (e.g. created/modified)

Is it possible to use the sorting link view to order a table using 2 fields?
I want to be able to sort the table using the created and modified datetime fields. When modified is empty or null use created else use modified, order by the result of that.
If not possible with the sorting link view, can it be done otherwise?

Thank you

Hi maxx,

If both fields have been assigned a sorting link view then you can sort by both of them, actually you can have multiple sorting fields active at the same time.

Best regards

Did you try ChronoMyAdmin for managing your Joomla database tables ?

That's not what I meant.

In the table I have just one column that displays the created value if modified is empty or the modified value if it is not empty.
I don't need to display both created and modified columns.
