Message 10287 - Posted: 19 Sep 2005, 2:25:08 UTC

Minor, I admit, but it's aggravating to me to dig 4 pages deep in a list of my completed WUs to find the one pending WU that I'm looking for.

It would be great if the result lists were sorted by Sent Date. That way, we have a more useful chronological list of work units sent/performed.

Thx in advance!!

you could also take a look on your pending credit (view pending credit under your account) and just click on them for a closer look.

as fas as i can see the wu are sorted by name, and therefor by generation date. due to the fact that wus from one patch are sent out only to the second host after the complete patch is sent out to one host, this kind of disturbs local sorting :)

Thx, pe, but the pending credit doesn't tell me anything about the WUs that I just returned and got credit for--those are the ones I'm usually interested in. Point is, that the list has to be sorted by something, so why not a more human useful field than Result ID?

It's a rediculously simple change in the code for those pages, just a simple add/edit on the SQL query in the PHP.

you are right. it really could be very usefull to sort it by whatever field the user likes. maybe you could suggest that on the boinc forum or the seti board as well, since i guess it could be more easily done by those guys (and also affects every project).

greetz, pe.

BTW, I'm an able PHP coder. I'd be happy to pitch in the time to make the changes myself, if that would help out. Just let me know!

Hi James,

It could be useful for all boinc-projects so check out the boinc source code and email the changes/patches to one of the admin (perhaps janus from burp.boinc.dk)

Sweet--didn't realize they put the web code in the BOINC source tarballs. Will do. Thanks, Peter!
