Sorting Catalogs with recent content on All Courses page

Hi! 

Our content is broken down into catalogs by subject. Some of our content is grouped into Learning Plans, while others remain as single units. 

What I’m wondering - Is there a way to have catalogs sorted by “newest content” on the All Courses page?

For example, we have a weekly, company-wide meeting that occurs and I would like the catalog that hosts that content to appear at the top of the All Courses page whenever a new edition is added to the catalog. Currently, it lives at the bottom of the All Courses page since it was the first catalog we created. 

From my understanding, setting the display to default as “Newest” only applies to the newest catalog, not the newest content within the catalog.

For clarity, I don’t want to set the sort to “Oldest” since, even though it applies to this example, it doesn’t fix the overall issue I’m trying to fix. Alternatively, if someone has a suggestion on a feature / way to display the content, I’m all ears.

 

Thank you for your help!

@acarrier  I see… this might be an enhancement idea to be submitted to Docebo https://community.docebo.com/ideas 

 

The only workaround I can think of would be to create a channel (if you have Coach and Share) and keep adding all-new courses there, so you will have a “what’s new” feed. 

You may also create a “what’s new” catalog, and add all courses there in parallel to their typical location - then use that catalog to review what is new. After a while, you may want to remove older courses from that catalog.

@acarrier did you try the option to define the Sort Order on the catalog level?

@alekwo, yes - the content within the catalog is sorted by “Newest to Oldest”. This, however, doesn’t make the catalog appear at the top of the “All Courses” page. 

Sorting the “All Courses” page using “Newest to Oldest” sorts by the most recently created catalog, not by the most recently added content. I’m trying to find a way to have the course catalogs sorted on the “All Courses” page by most recently added content.

I’ve added a screenshot below, hoping it adds a bit of context.
