Sort array modifier

  Previous article Next article  

Sorting the output of an array with this simple Smarty modifier. Sometimes has a problem, a very simple solution...
I was grateful inspired by http://stackoverflow.com when making this.

Create a file named "modifier.sort_array.php" and add it to the CMS Made Simple /plugins folder

<?php
/**
 * Smarty sort_array modifier plugin
 *
 * Type:     modifier
 * Name:     sort_array
 * Purpose:  alphabetize an array
 *
 * https://www.cmscanbesimple.org/blog/sort-array-modifier
 */


function smarty_modifier_sort_array($array)
{
    asort($array);
    return $array;  
}
?>

  How to use

You can alphabetize the output in your template like:

{foreach from=$item|sort_array item='bar'}
  {$bar}
{/foreach}
{foreach $nodes|sort_array as $node}
  +++ menu template +++
{/foreach}
