Sort by Status - Not working

Postby Ahuacamolli » Tue Jul 05, 2011 1:47 pm

When viewing a list of posts in the posts window, left clicking the column heading "Status" for the Status column doesn't result in the posts being sorted by their designated states. Downloaded, idle/old, idle/new, etc, continue to be intermingled with one another.

It doesn't seem to matter if the list of posts is highlighted or not before attempting to sort them by status.

This feature is (would be) very helpful in that it makes it easy to display posts by their designated status, highlight downloaded posts, duplicate posts, etc. and then mark them old by deleting them, so that they no longer appear in the posts list window.

Yeah, doesn't work. Not sure how to fix it yet. The problem is the status is dynamically generated. Haven't figured out how to snap shot the status yet.

Is there any progress being made (or attempted) on this?
Decided to finally upgrade to 6.x as 5.x was having issues with some things. For the past couple months, it's been fine. But today, I had to reload all posts for a group. Now, I'm 4 hours into trying to scroll through and delete all the downloaded posts and am only halfway through.
Once I finally get caught up to today's posts, I'm going back to 5.x or looking for an alternative program. 6.x isn't an upgrade when it costs a day of tedium in order to work around a broken feature that existed in previous versions. :evil:
