data_table : add_action and default_column_action

pierlo

I'm adding an action inside an advanced module's model, to have this new action appear in the view provided by the data table, like so:

	$this->data_table->add_action('MEDIA', 'links/media/{id}');

but then this action becomes the default one when clicking on the listed rows.
So i thought i should set the default action like this

	$this->data_table->default_field_action = array('EDIT' => 'links/edit/{id}');

but it won't help. Am I missing something? What is the correct way to do so?

The default_field_action is the default actions to display for each row and not necessarily what the row clicks to. That is actually handled with javascript in the BaseFuelController.js file. It triggers the link on the first action displayed (e.g. that is why EDIT is always listed before VIEW and DELETE).

And how can i edit the order of the actions then?

If you are using a module config file (e.g. like fuel/modules/fuel/fuel_modules.php OR fuel/modules/blog/blog_fuel_modules.php ), you can add/modify the "table_actions" value of your module configuration:
'table_actions' => array('MEDIA' => 'links/media/{id}', 'EDIT', 'VIEW', 'DELETE'),
The value of the key "MEDIA" can be a string as in the example, or a lamda function.

If you are using the add_action method like you have above, it should be the order in which you add the actions.
