[SOLVED] Alphabetical by last name? was created by orlisgal
Hi there! Is there any way to make it so that my user list will show users alphabetically by LAST name instead of FIRST name?

Thanks!

CB > User Management or your userlist you've created in CB > List Management? If your userlist you've created in CB > List Management then yes; you'd just to set the sorting to be based off the last name field. If you mean in CB > User Management then nope.

Perfect - thanks! Yes - userlist I've created in CB List management. So now can you share with me how to set the sorting to be based off of the last name field? That would help, thanks!

I've no idea what CB version you're on. So assuming CB 2.0 you'd edit your userlist, click the Sorting tab, then select the field to sort by, then select its direction. You can sort by multiple fields if you like by using the + button to add more sort fields.

Thanks - and I didn't realize the version would make a difference, but thanks for letting me know.

I have v. 1.9.1. There is no "Sorting tab" that I can see.

I clicked on "List Management"; then I clicked on the list in question (in this case it's "Staff") and then there are several items listed that I can edit. There is no "Sorting tab", but one of the options says "Sort By" - I'm assuming that's what I need to click, correct?

So I tried the following:
1) Clicked on the windows just above "Sort by" and chose "Last name" from the drop down menu;
2) Next, I chose "ASC" from the 2nd drop down option;
3) Then I clicked on "Add"
4) I finally clicked on "Save."

And now it looks like that did it! So now my list is in alphabetical order, based on the user's last name - woohoo.

Thanks so much for your help.

If you have not already done so, please download the CB 191 documentation from the Advanced download area - it should help you with such issues/questions.
