[Resolved] add fields to the secondary ordering array

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
Use custom fields in views secondary sorting.

Solution:

Unfortunately we don't have a way of doing this without some form of custom coding to add the additional fields to sort by.

Currently we can only sort by the default ones that you see that are currently available.

However since its not impossible to do but the custom coding falls out of the scope of our support forum. I would recommend contacting one of our certified consultants in order to achieve.

Also I see on our internal system that this feature is on our wish list for future updates and that it has been an accepted request.
