Sort by author and then publish date (multi-column sort)?
Not sure if calibre has multi-tier sorting like excel.

I can't get it to work. I click on Author(s) and then Published.

{Date} then {Authors} will bias Authors in date order. IIRC Calibre defaults allow 5 levels of bias. There is a Tweak you can reduce. Preferences: Tweaks LOTS OF REALLY GOOD STUFF if used carefully. As a new user, take a few and read (delay making adjustments for a bit) the descriptions. Some have very good reasons for NOT doing the change (reducing delays. Those can get us banned from useful metadata or trigger anti-SPAM/DOS measures at ISPs) |

@badbob001 - the View Manager plugin allows you to store multiple views with different sort orders, see Index of plugins
