Question

echo $form->input(
    'country_id',
    array(
        'type' => 'select', 
        'label' => __('Country *', true), 
        'empty' => 'Select' , 
        'order' => array('countries.name ASC')
    )
);

Country list are not showing up in Ascending Order. Please anybody help me to find out an error or good way to show country list in ascending order.

Answer 1

You need to add order to your find query:

$countries = $this->Country->find('list', array(
    'fields' => array('Country.id', 'Country.name'), 
    'order' => array('Country.name' => 'ASC')
))
