Sorting by multiple attributes

Hello,

I use tree fetch function and I would sort by multiples attributes.
This means I have a syntax like this :

'sort_by', array(

array('attribute', false(), 'new_item/creation_date'),
array('attribute', false(), 'old_item/creation_date'),

)

It doesn't work and I don't find the solution in the doc :
http://doc.ez.no/eZ-Publish/Technical-manual/4.x/Reference/Modules/content/Fetch-functions/list

The fact that we cannot use the same sort method many times is written anywhere.

Thanks in advance !

Is is the sorting that doesn't work, or does the whole fetch break?

Looks like you have a comma to much: 'old_item/creation_date'), <-

(Don't know if this i enough to break it but, worth a shot?)

 

 

EDIT:

I don't think you can sort on two different classes....?

Havard is right, you cannot use attribute sorting if your fetch returns objects of multiple classes.

Instead have you tried using the .sortarray?

'sort_by', $your_node_parent.sort_array

That way the admin can control how items are sorted.
