How to set defaults for ransack sorting?
This works for me:
@search = Change.search(params[:q])@search.sorts = 'updated_at desc' if @search.sorts.empty?Note: I had some head scratching at first, when I had desc in uppercase – that just doesn't work.
You can also set multiple default sorts by defining an array:
@search = Post.ransack(params[:q]) @search.sorts = ['name asc', 'created_at desc'] if @search.sorts.empty?@posts = @search.result.paginate(page: params[:page], per_page: 20)https://github.com/activerecord-hackery/ransack/wiki/Sorting-in-the-Controller
