Can you please add ‘Release Date’ to the ‘sort by’/’order by’ dropdown list for playlist, so I can listen to a playlist in the order (or reverse order) of when the songs were released (newest to oldest or oldest to newest)?

    Help upvoting my similar issue to Sort Album Lists ASCENDING and DESCENDING. Thanks

    Hey all! If you have a little knowledge of the Chrome Browser Console and access to Soundiiz or a similar service, the script I just wrote should create a revised playlist sorted in reverse chronological order (newest to oldest). You just have to replace the playlist ID with your own playlist ID (from the URL in the web app). See https://gist.github.com/justathoughtor2/966d5524df547bcab78d715243c5b84e for the script. Note that each step has to be run one at a time in the console so as not to exceed the free API quota. Hopefully this is easy enough to implement within Deezer itself that we’ll see something added soon, but this should serve in the meantime.

     

    By the way, here’s a sample unsorted playlist: http://www.deezer.com/playlist/7058375424

    And a sorted one: http://www.deezer.com/playlist/7061990684

    That's brilliant from you to share with us, @justathoughtor2 

    Thanks a bunch. We'll be passing this on to our devs as feedback, directly from your post :wink:

    I would most like to be able to sort albums by release date. This is available on Tidal and I found it a great way to explore favourites from the past. It also means that old albums that I have added recently don't get mixed up with new releases.
