I would like to customize the section editor to do the following:
1. Provide a filter on one or more fields so that not all entries are displayed in the list,
2. Set a default vaue to a field that can be overrirden. For example, if "date" or "ID" are in the database, would like to have the followinh happen on a "CREATE" event - date is filled in with the date in the most recently added record, and ID is incremented from the last highest ID number,
3. Define sort order after a CREATE such that new entires are added to the bottom of the lsit, not the top.
Apologies if these points have been addressed in the forum - I could not find anything.

Hi,
For your third point, we actually have a free plugin called "Create Record Here" that will allow you to create a record anywhere in the list:

We could create plugins for you to accomplish points 1 and 2. If you're interested, please send an email to consulting@interactivetools.com. Let us know exactly what you'll need and we can tell you what it would cost.
Hope this helps.

Alternately, for number 3, you can change the section's Order By (under the sorting tab) from "dragSortOrder DESC" to "dragSortOrder".
I hope this helps!
