Adding Position "drag and drop" field to manufacturer list (BackOffice)

[Aumanz]

Hi there, first have to say sorry if this was duplicated or solved on other topic, but i didnt find the correct way to solve it reading around.

 

i will explain what i do, I like to add Position field to manufacturer list on back office, or if posible in other parts, for customizing positions everywhere i need.

 

Using 1.6.1.5 PS version, so later of much trying, and receiving errors finally i have visible the "position" button with drag and drop movement, also change number, but dindnt save changes..

 

I've modifyed "AdminManufacturersController.php" also adding new table to _manufacturer SQL tables called "position"

 

in adminmanufacturerscontroller.php i've added 

 

protected $position_identifier = 'id_manufacturer';

at first line later the first class call..

 

Changed (inside the first public function __construct()

 

$this->_defaultOrderBy = 'name';

by

 

$this->_defaultOrderBy = 'position';

 

Also added

 

,

'position' => array(

                'title' => $this->l('Posicion'),

                'filter_key' => 'position',

                'align' => 'center',

                'position' => 'position',

'orderby' => true

            )

just later of

 

'active' => array(

                'title' => $this->l('Enabled'),

                'active' => 'status',

                'type' => 'bool',

                'align' => 'center',

                'class' => 'fixed-width-xs',

                'orderby' => false

            )

 

 

With a security copy of adminmanufacturerscontroller.php, saved and uploaded, then im able to change position and all seems to be ok, but dindt save changes, can please anyone help me on this?

Im really stucked on this and im studing for try to make it works.

 

Thanks, best regards.
