2. Click the Manage ordering link under the Publications panel checkbox.

3. Here you can change the Panel Name and choose one of the following ordering types:

  • Default - Your Publications will be sorted accordingly to the sequence of Live Publications in your collection.

  • Publication date - To sort the Publications, the system will use the year that is written in the volume of thePublication as the Publication Date.

Note: In case the date is not mentioned in the Volume, the system will use the date when the publication was pushed to Live.

The following is the list of possible formats that, when used in volume, will be detected as the date to sort the publications in your collection:

  • 2019 September
    2019October
