How to sort assets

  1. Make sure you're in "All assets" view.

  2. On the top right, you'll see a sorting drop down. This is initially set to "Date added - new to old", but you can change what it's set to to a number of options, depending on your specific account configuration (more on this later).

  3. Click the drop-down to change how your assets are sorted. This will save it as the default setting for your user account moving forward, until you change it again, even if you log out and back in again. This won't change it for other users, just you.

Which options you can sort by

These options are always available by default in your sorting drop down:

  • Date added: new to old

  • Date added: old to new

  • Most downloaded

  • Least downloaded

  • File size - large to small

  • File size - small to large

The rest of the options are determined by which text fields you've included in your Thumbnail display (this is configured in Admin > Fields > Thumbnail display > Logged-in users).

For example, the "Title" field is usually included in the Thumbnail field by default, and therefore you can sort by it. If, however, you were to remove it, it would no longer be available in the sorting drop-down.
