Hello community,

Does anybody knows, how can I reorder the collection panels in Collection view. Or at least what is the order logic?

Thanks!

Hi,

the default sorting should be by collection name.

Hi Artur,

Should be, but it is not. I’ve created 2 collections with names ‘test1’ and ‘test2’, but they’ve sorted in random order among the other collections.

Is there any other way to impact on the sort order of the collections or group them in some way?

Thanks,  
Zdravko
