A user kindly pointed out that there was a problem with the sort and pagination features where the “Sort By” setting wasn’t persisting on subsequent pages. For example, if you sorted the list by Price then clicked the next page link, page two of the list would revert to being sorted by App Name, not Price.
As soon as it was reported, I knew what was wrong… I had changed a variable name in one place and neglected to change it in another. Oooops! This goes to show you; Don’t go messing around with your code after you’ve tested it. Rookie mistake!
Well, it’s now fixed and the Sort and Pagination features should now work together in harmony (as intended). If you sort the list by any parameters, those parameters should persist as you view pages of the list, at least until you re-sort the list.
It took me a little longer than I thought it would to release this, but the App List has now been split into pages. By default, 50 apps will appear on each page but you may change that by selecting 25, 100 or All from the “Apps Per Page…” drop-down and clicking the “Apply” button. At the bottom of the list you will then find FIRST, PREV, NEXT and LAST links with which to navigate forward and backward through the pages.
I made a few small changes to the site last night, with the first being the addition of a “Last Updated” date just to the left of the list. This will provide you with a quick way to tell when the the last additions were made to the list.
