Ordering of terms in the 'Taxonomies' tab when editing Resources

[PeteVox]

Hi there.

We'd noticed that terms weren't ordered by 'menuindex' or 'a-z' in the main 'Taxonomies' tab when editing resources. We updated our local install in order to use 'menuindex'...perhaps worth including option to order by various fields in a later release?

Great component. Many thanks.

Our fix in 'getFieldItems' function @ modxroot/components/taxonomies/model/Base.php

Insert at line 184:
uasort($children, function($a, $b){return $a['menuindex'] - $b['menuindex'];});

Complete function:

public function getFieldItems($current_values,$children, $indent_multiplier = 0, $class = '')
{

    $out = '';

   // sort children
   uasort($children, function($a, $b){return $a['menuindex'] - $b['menuindex'];});

    foreach ($children as $page_id => $def) {
        $indent = str_repeat('--', $indent_multiplier);
        if (isset($def['published']) && $def['published'])
        {
            $checked = (in_array($page_id,$current_values)) ? ' checked="checked"' : '';
            $out .= $indent . ' <input type="checkbox" name="terms[]" id="terms' . $this->i . '" value="' . $page_id . '"
                class="multicheck' . $class . '" style=""  '.$checked.'/>
                <label for="terms' . $this->i . '" class="multichecklabel">' . $def['pagetitle'] . '</label><br/>';
            $this->i = $this->i + 1;
            if (!empty($def['children'])) {
                $class = $class . ' term' . $page_id;
                $out .= $this->getFieldItems($current_values,$def['children'], $indent_multiplier+1, $class);
            }
        }
        //$indent_multiplier--;
    }

    return $out;
}
