Participant list in alphabetically order (FE)

[mckillo]

Issue from forum:
In the event view (FE), the attendee names is displayed in order of registration ID, not alphabetically.

Proposal to solved it: Create a new registration option in JEM Setting about order

[mckillo]

In this branch, I have created a proposal for a solution that adds a new registration option in JEM Settings for ordering the attendee name list. Now, the admin can display names ordered by registration ID, user ID, username, or name, in either ascending or descending order.

@jojo12 You can review this solution to the forum user with this issue in the event view (FE).
It's a proposal for the next version 4.4.0.
See the commit here: #1880
Test it and let me know if it works for you and ... the JEM user in the forum.

I don't know if this is needed! I think, the list of participants is needed only from event creator ( admin of an event which has only access in frontend).
There he can get the attendeesmanager via myevent or directly from event.
There he can sort the list with nearby each column (and view or print or mail it).
I just wrote the user this answer.

What does this solution specificly: list the view in event details in different orders? But then the eventcreator is always dependent of the admin, because he hasn't access to the general jem settings.

[mckillo]

Yes and no, it depends on the situation of the event. I can create an event for a class/lab/practice, and I want other users to know who is in the event. If the list is in alphabetical order, that would be best for this event view (FE). There are two options for the users (not admin): 'All attendee users' and 'Everyone'. In this case, other users can see the names list.

Update: Another case could be where the names list is displayed with the event in the CB (social platform)

ok, but what is a registration ID?
name and username make sense

[mckillo]

The registration ID= It is the order of arrival of the registrations.

[mckillo]

The last registered will be last on the list, and the one who is faster after the event is published will be first.
After the admin applies LIFO or FIFO to the list :-)

[mckillo]

It can change registration ID by registration date

[jojo12]

ok, then it's green for me (thumb up), I will contact the user that he can try

[mckillo]

Ok, when it's tested, tell me if I merge it to 4.3.2 o 4.4.0

[inLIMITit]

I’ve successfully tested it. The new alphabetical participant overview is a great improvement for us. Thank you!

Included into 4.3.2 (next release)
