Description

There are 2 configurations in the ctrl section of a table which are nearly the same but do different things:

  • sortby holds the field name for the sorting (integer) field
  • default_sortby. sorting column like the title.

Many users used the wrong one and this lead to have e.g. all title fields set to a random sorting id.

We need to deprecate either one of those or better both to have a new and better name

both have a hint in the docs to not confuse them with each other.

And I often see that people loose data because of wrong configuration.

Core could also check if sortby field is integer or if it is not the same as the label field..

we could rename "default_sortby" to "default_order_in_lists"?

I am closing this issue. it doesn't make sense to touch 1 or 2 fields and keep rest like that.
