Whenever I want to arrange my Reading List, I find it tedious. Please don't get me wrong. I love this site as it is very useful in manga info and chapter releases info.

As to what I said earlier, I suggest that hopefully the Reading List can be easily arranged using drag and drop method or the "Series" category name is clickable that when clicked will automatically arrange the list below by alphabetical order or it would be nice if there's another option in arrangement by mangaka. I like to arrange the manga series side by side (or grouped together) the works of the same author.

The site has the "Priority" than can be used to arranged titles but it can't be used for multiple titles, only one title at time ...and that's become also my problem as I get lost and have to look back or up where was the other titles that I am suppose to arrange together with the first title I moved up/down.

Hopefully others experience the same, especially those with long list in their Reading List.

you are able to sort alphabetically but not by author.
at the bottom on the right is the sort tools

I would definitely be on board for this, as much as I like this site, good can usually be nudged into great when polished in just the right areas.

Thanks for pointing it out. I really forgot about that.

Yes, we have alphabetical sorting but it would be great if it we can sort by author (please add this in sort choice) as well and by "With Priority" (up and down choices in the left side of the title) or other choices like released date, publication date, etc. So, that means two conditions to query. Will that be possible? If more choices will be allowed (using checkboxes), that would be awesome.

The drag and drop would be great if that will be possible in addition to above. This is actually my topic title but the it seems it's harder to implement compare to above using multiple selections.

In my case, I always like to sort the titles together by author and by priority order or vice versa. It's easier when only one title is added to the list as I can move it together with other works of the mangaka. Now the scenario if the newly added title is at the bottom of the list and I would like to move it to the very top of the list together with the other works of the mangaka (since I put them as the very top priority), that when it really took me some time to arrange it, so this is when I came up with the suggestion for drag and drop.

I also mentioned multiple selections in my first post. This is when the titles are scattered and I would like to group them together within the certain part of the list. Drag and drop might be good for this method after checking those titles, wouldn't it? smile
