Subscription Sorting

You can sort your subscription list by name, unread count, and last update.

Choose View > Subscriptions > Sort By Name—your subscriptions will change positions.

Subscriptions inside groups are sorted along with top-level subscriptions.

To return to your manual organization, choose View > Subscriptions > Organize Manually. Even though you previously sorted your subscriptions by name, NetNewsWire remembers your manual organization.

Other commands allow you to sort by unread count and last update date.

When sorting happens

Sorting happens after a refresh session. If you’ve sorted by name, sorting happens whenever you change the name of a subscription.

Customizing sorting

Some people like to leave their top-level subscriptions organized manually, but still sort inside groups. Here’s how:

  1. Choose NetNewsWire > PreferencesÉ.
  2. Click the General toolbar icon if itŐs not already selected.
  3. Near the bottom of the window, check the box next to Sort inside groups only.

Notice that you can also turn off sort animations via the Animate sorting checkbox.
