[solved] How to set a folder to sort by "Date Created" automatically?

Post by *Jorge24 »

Is there a way to automatically sort a specific folder by date created every time you go to it?

I know I can use "Auto Switch Mode" to set a "View Mode" for a specific folder but I can't find a way to create a View Mode that sorts by "Date Created".
There is a "Date" option in the View Mode's "sort order" but it sorts by "Date Modified" instead of "Date Created".

Maybe there's a plugin or something that allows me to add more sorting options to the View Modes? Having a mode that sorts by image dimensions would be nice too.

Create a custom column view with [=tc.creationdate.Y.M.D h:m:s], and then select it in the "Columns View:" field, and the column in the "Sort Order:" field.
