    Sorted Lists are sorted alphabetically. You’ll need to do a table, rather than a list, if you want to sort by date descending.

    Thanks for the quick reply thom.

    Can I be silly and ask if you mean a table in the database or a table within the HTML on the page?

    Instead of [fileaway] do [fileaway type=”table” sortfirst=”mod-desc”]

    No prob.

    Hi, I used the same option, but sorting has some issues. I am sorting by file name which has date on it.

    Example:

    File name 1 = 9-1-16 name of my file.mp3
    File name 2 = 9-12-16 name of my file.mp3

    When I sort descending by file name I expect 9-12-16 file comes first but it is not. sorting by mod is working fine but, in my requirement I cannot use it because old files even touched frequently.

    Could you please check it?

    If you want to sort by date in the filename column, or any column other than the date modified column, your dates have to be formatted like this: 2016-01-01 (YYYY-MM-DD)

    Worked after changing the date format in the file name. I appreciate your quick response.
