Sort posts
Diperbarui 10 hours ago oleh Rana WildsDecide how posts will be sorted on your board. By default, posts are sorted manually with new posts added last. You can also sort automatically by date published, post subject, or randomly.
Accessing the sorting options
- Click the Settings cog icon (⚙️) at the top of your padlet
- Scroll down to the Layout section
- Click the drop-down menu next to 'Sort by'
- Select your desired sorting option
How sorting works
If you'd like to sort your posts manually, use the Drag and drop option.
When you use any of the other sorting options, manually rearranging posts on the board will not be possible. Instead, your posts will be sorted automatically by the chosen criteria.
Ways to sort
Drag and drop (manually)
When you sort manually (using Drag and drop), added posts will appear at the beginning or end of your board depending on which setting you choose. You will then be able to drag and drop posts to rearrange them however you want.
Date published
Posts will be sorted in the order that they were posted.
Post subject (alphabetically)
This setting will sort posts alphabetically by the subject of the post. If two posts have the same text in the subject, the tie will be broken by the date published. The older post will always come first. If a post has no text, it will be sorted to the end of the board.
Random
Sorting randomly will rearrange your posts randomly every time the page refreshes.
Custom properties
If you have created custom post fields, you can sort your posts this way, too!
