What the subj says. I see only sort by replies, views or activity (last reply/edit).

Above that click on “Latest” to see them ordered by creation date. I don’t know of a way to sort them by title.

I can confirm that (at least in my case) clicking on Latest does **not** order them by creation date (it looks the same as ordered by activity). I’m using 1.9.4 stable.

Sorry, duh, you’re right.
~~PS: You can use the urls:
..com/latest?ascending=true&order=creation
…com/latest?ascending=false&order=creation
to order by creation date.~~ sorry, no that’s not right either. ☹

Thanks, good find.
Can the theme be edited from the GUI to change the url of “Latest” or “Activity”?
If any dev is reading this: why not replace “Activity” with “Created” given the “Latest” button is a duplicate of “Activity”?

Not possible right now, @nordize
Check this:
- [Sort display of topics Alphabetically](https://meta.discourse.org/t/feature-request-sort-display-of-topics-alphabetically/53911)
- [Sort topics (within category) in alphabetical order by default](https://meta.discourse.org/t/sort-topics-within-category-in-alphabetical-order-by-default/25350)
- [Sort topics within category by topic title](https://meta.discourse.org/t/sort-topics-within-category-by-topic-title/56139)

Yes.
I would like the same thing.
But just typing
latest?order=created
Don’t work.
Anyone have a solution to: sort topics by _created date_?
