[font "Calibri"]I want items in both, CMS Builder List and on the live web page to be sorted alphabetically. For the life of me, I can’t figure it out. Right now, I just drag the items in the listing editor to sort it manually.

[font "Calibri"]This is the final listing page:

Re: [RapidWeb] Sort list alphabetically

By default viewers use the sorting order specified in "Admin > Section Editors > Sorting". But you can override that and specify a different sorting order if needed. The orderBy field is a comma separated list of fields used to sort the list of records (example: author, title).

Under the sorting tab of your section editor make sure the field you want things sorted by is listed first. Get rid of all instances of dragSortOrder for that section since you want to sort by another field. You can't sort by both dragSortOrder and another field.

Let me know if something is not working right with this for you
