  • Status changed from new to assigned

added diff for increasing usability of wordpress import by sorting the user dropdown.

also implemented a matching pattern for author to import against existing display_name/user_logins that preselects the closest user matches in the select box.

Hi tott, can you separate out the matching to a separate ticket, and refresh the patch, to better isolate the issues and ease review.

#4 @tott

  • seperated author preselection to #8455
  • limited sort fields to user_login and user_id as these are the only indexed values

doesn't this patch break the call it gets in the dashboard?

#7 @Denis-de-Bernardy
17 years ago

mm, it doesn't. but it does change the returned set of values, as compared to today's trunk:

SELECT user_id, user_id AS ID, user_login, display_name, user_email, meta_value

might need a refresh

  • Milestone Future Release deleted
  • Resolution set to duplicate
  • Status changed from accepted to closed
  • Summary changed from Enhance usability in Wordpress Import to Enhance usability in Wordpress Import: sort author dropdowns by name & tab navigation between dropdowns

This work seems to predate wp_dropdown_users() (since WP 2.3), and at least the 1st part is addressed in trunk, from #15197: WXR export/import umbrella ticket.

Closing as duplicate.
