This module basically helps you to create quick links to fast edit modes for records. For example, in the CMS you can add a link: click here to edit the prices for all products in one go. This link then creates a pop-up where you can edit all the prices without ever having to press save or reload a record.

Similar, you can sort records and so on.

Allows for sorting of records and editing of one field for all records and one record and similar functions. to create links.

	$fields->addFieldToTab(
		"Root.Position",
		new LiteralField(

			)
		)
	);
else {
	$fields->addFieldToTab(

	"SiteTree",
	"URLSegment",
	$where = "MetaTitle IS NULL OR MetaTitle = ''",

);
$fields->AddFieldToTab(

1. Find out how to add modules to SS and add module as per usual.

2. Review configs and add entries to mysite/_config/config.yml (or similar) as necessary. In the _config/ folder of this module you can usually find some examples of config options (if any).

ADDING SORTER TO FRONT END:

3. add $this->initDataObjectSorter() to your code - e.g. to your Page_Controller::init function.

4. review css and templates and see if you need to theme it (rather than using the "unthemed" default provided.

5. add <% include DataObjectSorter %> to your template

There are a ton of other options for adding this module that still need to be listed here. Also see documentation above.
