Auto-sorting function when adding content to Channels

Lindsay

It would be very nice if there was an option when adding content to channels to either: 
a) Manually sort content; OR
b) Content is automatically put into alphabetical order

We have some channels with a lot of content, and it takes forever to move titles up in the channel. Having these options would make this action more efficient when adding content to channels. OR fix the manual sort so manually moving titles is faster.

Totally second this request.  Was a complete surprise when going live with Percipio that an Alpha sort wasn't the default.  Definitely need the ability to manually order and while it's not great, I find that temporarily zooming out with my browser to better see content, is helpful but not a great solution.  Having a typical sort filter at the top of each Channel build screen to select between Alpha, most recent, etc. would be a huge benefit.

Hi @Lindsay Feller, thank you for your request. To clarify, when you said "while adding content to channels", do you mean in the search for content to add workflow or when viewing the list of content in a channel?

Lindsay

Hey @Michael Murphy - yes, to clarify, it would be when looking at the list of content on your channel, and then wanting to move those items around.

Since I first posted this request, I have noticed that moving content items up and down on my channels is MUCH faster than before.... 

However, I still think implementing an option or two, to automatically be able to add your content in alphabetical order, or choose to manually sort the content items on a channel would be more efficient

@Lindsay Feller that clarification was very helpful. Thank you! I'll put an item in our backlog to give the option to alphabetize the channel contents list.
