[Building Sakai] Sorting course in More Sites

[William Karavites]

That would actually be a great feature. Have the first part just be sites that you visit frequently. In that 'others' section be able to pick how you'd be able to order them. 


For students it would be great to have your most visited sites up top with classes from other semesters(in another section) going down chronologically or alphabetically. 


For now, you have to manually put down the semesters you want? 


I.E: 


Spring 2013 
Winter 2012 
Fall 2012 
Summer 2012 
Fall 2012 
Winter 2011 
... 


It would be great if it could do this automatically.

I always thought the list should be sorted alphabetically BUT ordered primarily on the frequency that a site was visited. 

The site you visit most is at the top, the second most popular is next and so on. Where there’s a some sites that have been visited the same number of time, you use alphabetical order. 

Now wouldn’t that be great!?

I already have this patch included from this ticket to hopefully better implement a sorted course/project list in the More Sites dropdown. I know that I will have to put certain settings in sakai.properties, but I am unsure of which ones to put. 



My goal is to possibly have it spit something out in chronological order from most recent to first.
