Adding an element as first in container-col, it's not sorted as first

[DavidBruchmann]

the element might be the last in the col, or between too.

The following changed method execute() in paste.js is fixing it.
The comments in the code mark my changes:

    execute(element) {
        const colPos = Paste.determineColumn(element);
        const txContainerParent = Paste.determineTxContainerParent(element);
        const closestElement = element.closest(this.elementIdentifier);
        const targetFound = closestElement.dataset.uid;
        let targetPid;
        if (typeof targetFound === 'undefined') {
            targetPid = parseInt(closestElement.dataset.page, 10);
        }
        else {
            targetPid = 0 - parseInt(targetFound, 10);
        }
        const language = parseInt(element.closest('[data-language-uid]').dataset.languageUid, 10);
        // CHANGE FROM const TO let:
        let parameters = {
            CB: {
                paste: 'tt_content|' + targetPid,
                pad: 'normal',
                update: {
                    colPos: colPos,
                    sys_language_uid: language,
                    tx_container_parent: txContainerParent,
                },
            },
        };
        // NEW CONDITION to add the sorting parameter:
        if (txContainerParent && typeof targetFound === 'undefined') {
          parameters.CB.update.sorting = 0;
        }
        DataHandler.process(parameters).then((result) => {
            if (!result.hasErrors) {
                window.location.reload();
            }
        });
    }

Hi @DavidBruchmann , how exactly can i reproduce this behaviour?
there is a test, which cover sorting of new element at top
https://github.com/b13/container/blob/master/Tests/Functional/Datahandler/DefaultLanguage/NewElementTest.php#L65
ends in
https://github.com/b13/container/blob/master/Tests/Functional/Datahandler/DefaultLanguage/Fixtures/NewElement/NewElementAtTopResult.csv
(s. column sorting)

Hi @achimfritz,

I just created a content element of type 2-cols on a page and added some arbitrate elements inside. I didn't achieve to get an element at first position after having 1 initial element inside.

Concerning the test I remarked that in paste.js the CB syntax is used, in the test the other one. It seems to me that the test does not cover the real case, at least not entirely.

[DavidBruchmann]

@achimfritz note that the test includes 'pid' => -1, which by itself consists of a sorting instruction based on the minus.

Can confirm this behavior with TYPO3 13 and EXT:container 3.1!

Hi Guys, please give me a detail description how i can reproduce this behaviour, with an vanilla-installation (core + EXT:container + EXT:container-example).

• provide a db dump of tt_content before your actions
• describe exactly what you do
• provide a db dump after your actions

would be perfect.

else i cannot help.
