make Announcements sortable?

[LiquidFractal]

Hello,

Unless I'm missing something, there seems to be no way to order Announcements if you have more than one displaying at the same time: they display in descending order.  Would it be too complicated to offer a sort option where the most recent Announcement could appear at the top (i.e. Admin-determined order)?

You can sort them into ascending or descending, I've got mine set to descending so the newest announcement is up the top.

Really? How does one do that?  I go in to my ModeratorCP, then select Announcements; I have two current announcements.  I can select all or none of them, but all I can do in the interface is make them inactive, edit, or delete them.  I don't see any means for ordering them.  Or is this somehow done in the AdminCP instead?

Click the Arrow on the right side of the screen [<], this is the widget organiser, click EDIT on the announcement block and choose from there.

AHA!  There it is.  It didn't occur to me that it was a block attribute.  Thank you CP_User
