How can I sort by name?

[ricardocanelas]

My category table

The listing is as follows:

But I wish to be like this: Sort by name:

Root

• Esporte
• • Baskball
• • Futebol
• • Natação
• Viagem
• • Brasil
• • México
• • USA

How can I do?

you would have to recalculate rgt and lft for this. Load the tree from the DB, sort the records using PHP and save them back.

Please check if I did right:

public function orderByName(){
    $parent=Category::model()->findByPk(1);
    $descendants=$parent->children()->findAll(array("order" => "name DESC"));
    self::childrenOrderByName($descendants,$parent);
}

private function childrenOrderByName($descendants, $parent){
        foreach ($descendants as $key => $category) {
            $category->moveAsFirst($parent);
            $_parent = Category::model()->findByPk($category->id);
            $_descendants=$_parent->children()->findAll(array("order" => "name DESC"));

            if(count($_descendants) > 0){
                self::childrenOrderByName($_descendants,$_parent);
            }
        }
}
