In the meantime, in case you need to do this again, edit the config file and look for lines that look like:
Code:
LastLibrarySorter_shelf_filterByBookshelf%28Ender%27s%20Game%29=sortByDateAddedToShelf()
The bit between the "%28" and "%29" is the URL encoded shelf name. If you remove the line, it will use the default sort. The value on the right is the name of the sort function used. You can change it to one of:
- sortByNewest() - This is "Recently Read"
- sortByTitle()
- sortByAuthor()
- sortBySize()
- sortByFileType()
- sortByDateAddedToShelf()

A fair time ago I tried changing the sortby options to sortByAuthor.
First off it didn't seem to work. Sometimes it would get overwritten and sometimes not. But even when not overwritten it didn't seem to work.
I would have [Sort] IIRC where the usual sort by was displayed and the tiles on the home screen would move around in a random way every time I powered on. Once I even had no tile for the current book.
My question is does changing it actually work now?
