Hi @johnjkr, I’m not sure I understand correctly. On the section page, you already have the option to sort pages: We could also add the option to sort files in ascending or descending order in this dialog. |

HI @perber, I did not see that menu for the sections. My fault there. The sort /move within the section works very well. Thanks. This can be closed. |

The Explorer tree lists pages in the order they were created, which means if I do not create or import pages in their chronological order, the Explorer sequencing is 'out of order'.
I have tried different ways to use the Move action, but that does not help re-order pages.
As a reminder, this is important for my use cases because I am helping create an internal 'library' of company communications and the expected way to view these pages/notes is as a chronological list based on the page name (Obsidian note/file name), or eventually a date Property in the YAML compliant frontmatter.
The result is I have pages that were added later, manually or using the importer, that end up at the end of the Explorer list but based on title - yyyy-mm-dd-subject - and Date frontmatter should be interspersed among previously added pages.
Pending any potential code changes to accommodate this requirement, I'd appreciate any workarounds for changing the order pages are displayed in Explorer panel, even if that means going into the underlying .md file and editing something in the frontmatter.
For example, I considered but have not tried editing the "leafwiki_created_at" value in frontmatter out of fear of completely breaking everything else that was working.
