Magento2: How to show recently added wishlist to be displayed at the starting In wishlist Page?

Question

I want to show a recently added wishlist to be displayed at the starting In wishlist Page in magento2? Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

You can create di.xml file in your custom module here

app/code/Vendor/Module/etc/di.xml

Content for this file is..

<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:ObjectManager/etc/config.xsd">
    <preference for="Magento\Wishlist\Block\Customer\Wishlist" type="Vendor\Module\Block\Customer\Wishlist" />
</config>

Now we need to create one Block file here in custom module

app/code/Vendor/Module/Block/Customer/Wishlist.php

Content for this file is..

<?php
namespace Vendor\Module\Block\Customer;

class Wishlist extends \Magento\Wishlist\Block\Customer\Wishlist
{
    protected function _prepareCollection($collection)
    {
        $collection->setInStockFilter(true)->setOrder('added_at', 'DESC');
        return $this;
    }
}

Hope this will help you!

_prepareCollection method is not overriding for some reason. So overrided a public function "getWishlistItems" which calls the protected function "_prepareCollection" . Also need to override the private method which is called insided the "getWishlistItems" function. In that way i can able to achieve it. So the required functions inside the above suggested class content by Kishan will be

public function getWishlistItems()
{
    if ($this->_collection === null) {
        $this->_collection = $this->_createWishlistItemCollection();
        $this->_prepareCollection($this->_collection);
        $this->paginateCollection();
    }
    return $this->_collection;
}

private function paginateCollection()
{
    $page = $this->getRequest()->getParam("p", 1);
    $limit = $this->getRequest()->getParam("limit", 10);
    $this->_collection
        ->setPageSize($limit)
        ->setCurPage($page);
}

protected function _prepareCollection($collection)
{
    $collection->setInStockFilter(true)->setOrder('added_at', 'DESC');
    return $this;
}

It works for me. Hope this will help someone.
