Edit Entries page in AdminSuite

Post by Rei »

Hi,

May i know how can i have the "Page x of xx, totaling xxx entries" showing when i am at the "Edit Entries" in the Admin Suite?
The similar info is showing in the entries>Comments, but not in the entries>Edit Entries. I miss it.

About the "Filters - Find entries", can we have an option at the Category there to show orphan entries i.e. entry that has not been associated with any category?
This should be quite useful. At least i was searching row by row yesterday trying to find out where are those posts. (I was re-categorize the posts but some how the database never update it although the browser shows the action has been successfully completed.)

Can we have the option to find the entries by entry # too?
At Comments page the comment # is showing, at least i can use the browser Find option to find the #, but not so in the Edit Entries page.
There is the "Edit entry: # " at the bottom, but to delete an entry, i still need to find out the entry in the Edit Entries page.

Oh i hope i am not requesting too much. :P

This is not coded into serendipity, it would need to be added to the core.

This might sound easy, but in reality it's quite impossible. The SQL query code that returns entries by categories makes a left join. Rebuilding the query to include categories that have no association would result in a completely different SQL code, and thus a completely new function would be needed to be created here.

However, an easier solution: Simply sort by category (ascending) and the first entries will be those without a category association!
Can we have the option to find the entries by entry # too?
Bottom of the screen, there you can enter an entryid already. If you hover your mouse above the entry title, you will see a popup information which entryid the entry has.

Oh yah... why on the front page of the website, we can have "delete" option besides the "reply" at Comments, but not having the "delete" option beside the "edit entry" of our posts?

If someone added this, yes. *g*

Personally I don't find that very important, so I'd have other issues to attend to before doing that. This might not be before the next version...

Bestregards,
