Important: Page media follows the reference sorting
Description
\FGTCLB\
read
sys_ without an ordering, so a page with several
files in one field returned them in whatever order the database yielded. The
sorting_ an editor arranges in the field was ignored, and on
PostgreSQL the order could differ between two calls for the same page. The
query now orders by
sorting_, with
uid
settling ties.
Impact
Nothing this extension renders uses the collection. Code of a project that calls the method gets the files in the order the editor arranged them on the page. That is what SQLite, MySQL and MariaDB delivered in practice for references that were never reordered, and what editors expressed but never got for references that were.
Affected Installations
Installations whose own code calls
File. Nothing has to
be done on update.
