Sort order of Custom Portal Tasks?

Kenneth_McMichael

I've got code in my custom.js like below...

// show task 1

$.getScript("/CustomSpace/custom_task1.js");

// show task 2

$.getScript("/CustomSpace/custom_task2.js")

// show task 3

$.getScript("/CustomSpace/custom_task3.js")

As these add up, the order in which it displays is inconsistent - Is there a way in the custom.js to specify which order these should appear in?

I think I saw somewhere else where the default options are coming from the controller.js - which is okay. I'm just looking for sorting the additional tasks I am adding.

thanks in advance!

Hello!
I have this function you can use in custom.js to sort custom tasks alphabetically using the jquery sort function:

function sortTaskList() {
	var taskList = $('.taskmenu'),
		listitems = taskList.children('li').get();
	listitems.sort(function (a, b) {
		return $(a).text().toUpperCase().localeCompare($(b).text().toUpperCase());
	});
	$.each(listitems, function (idx, itm) { taskList.append(itm); });
}
