Set default sort order

I would recommend having the user/admin control the default sorting behavior when setting up the initial library.  Since in most cases the title makes sense, you can have it be the default, but still have it be changeable.  I think this would save you guys the headache of new niche content types coming up and having to develop additional sorting exceptions.  

Yes and that is doable but in this case it shouldn't require that much fiddling. Since the podcasts plugin provides the content, it should also be able to pass the default sorting requirement along with it. So that's what we need to build.

+1 for ability to globally set a default sort order.

In my use case for my music library, I would like the default sorting to be by release date, instead of title.

Is there a way to do this now by editing a specific js file, just as a temp workaround until full implementation?

Would love to see this as well.

 

In my mind this should be two-fold.

Global setting per library, and the ability for users to overwrite their own personal preference per library in the same way as they choose their default landing page per library.
