I came across a post asking about custom sorting, but it seems there has been no follow-up. I’m not particularly interested in customization myself, because the default scenarios are actually well-implemented. However, there’s something a bit odd: these are 3 types and their respective 3 levels of Badges, but… why isn’t each column a category?
The initial reason for considering this issue might just be my OCD, but from the perspective of the feature’s operational logic, if it were arranged first by level and then by type, the final result should also be a scenario where each column is a category and each row is a level. However, the meta clearly doesn’t show this…
Well, I just didn’t react in time. At the final step, it still sorts based on the name string of the badges…
It’s strange why it doesn’t arrange them according to a fixed ID or internal name, as this causes the Badges to appear in different orders due to translation reasons…
i think i can build a theme component that will allow an admin to re-order the badges (and maybe even re-group?). but it will probably be a bit tricky, and i cannot do it for free.
oh i thought you wanted to re-order them on the badge page? sorry i misunderstood what you are trying to do. don’t you mean they change order based on the language and you are trying to override that behavior?
I think it’s a problem that badges use different orders due to different localized texts in different languages. On some sites and games I know, when dealing with multilingual issues, they generally keep their order unchanged. Even some older games, such as modern engine extension projects for “Command & Conquer”, are adding similar features to ensure that translated texts do not affect the order of icons and other elements.
As for custom order, um… it sounds good, but I have no need for it.
