Odering of items displayed in a table

Odering of items displayed in a table

How to reverse the sort order of items in a front-end table.

Overview

The issue occurs when using the "Order Fields" function, which defaults to ascending order without an option to specify descending.
To sort in descending order, add "/desc" after the field name in the Order Fields box; use "/asc" for ascending order.

Hi,

I am trying to set the ordering for one of the tables that I have displaying in the front end, I thought this would be achieved in the appropriate "Order Fields" in the Function as I can't see where it would be added in the table view.

When I add a valid row it sorts the data Ascending, but I can't get it to reverse to using DESC.

Regards,
Dave

Hi Dave,

In the order fields box: 
Model.field/desc

you can also use "asc"
