sort projects by name, or by created date?
Hi: Seems like the "list projects in alphabetical order" can only be by Ascending order, no Descending order. Also in "Home" -> "Active Projects" section, why not show project "Created Date", and can be sorted? I create 5-10 projects per day, but some how I don't know how they got listed and ordered? and I don't find a better way to order them? Drag Drop won't work because it is time consuming. Any suggestion? Thanks James
