Bookjunkie - Tags is a built in column I cannot change its type.

davidfor - thanks, no secret list_unsort function then
Can you recall if the opposite solution was considered, i.e a custom column with Column Type of "Comma separated text,
like tags, shown in the tag browser" was be sorted
like tags are always sorted. Yes they are sorted in the Book List, but not in Book Details and hence not when used in a template.
If a '!' was prepended to the Tag that I want first, that would force it to the top if the list.
Can someone furnish me with a template that will examine the first character of the first tag and if it is '!' then return the substring of first tag from position 1 to end, otherwise return the first tag. I tried but it didn't work
So
!Underpass would return
Underpass and
Crossover would return
Crossover.
