Organizing Table List

    Hello,

    I am wondering if it is possible to sort the order of the table list alphabetically rather than by the import date. We have a large amount of tables being used on our website and it would make the process of updating and replacing tables easier if the list were sorted alphabetically.

    Thanks in advance for your help!

    Hi,

    thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.

    Which list exactly are you referring to? For the “All Tables” list, you can e.g. order it by clicking on the column head cell in that list.

    Regards,

    You can always arrange the data in Excel, so it is listed alphabetically before you export the CSV out.

    Thanks for the quick responses. I am referring to the list of tables that displays when you replace a table with an import. It is sorted by ID number currently, but I’m wondering if it can be sorted alphabetically. We replace the content of tables very often so it would be easier to manager that process if they were sorted alphabetically.

    Hi,

    I see what you mean. Unfortunately, there’s no easy solution to that 🙁
    Your best workaround would maybe be to manually change the table IDs (on each table’s “Edit” screen) so that you get a nicer order. By the way: Table IDs don’t have to be numbers.
