Tags alphabetical order on AEM

Hi 
I'd like to be able to sort the display order of my tags if I wish.
Currently, I'm obliged to delete everything and recreate the tags one by one in the order I've chosen.
This can be very cumbersome when there are a lot of tags.

Ideally, there should be a button for sorting in ascending or descending order.

With the possibility of moving (up/down or drag&drop) certain tags to make exceptions in order if I wish.

    Hi - This functionality is available.  Next to "Sort by" use the dropdown arrow to select NAME.

    You can also sort by Created and Modified.

    Hello
    Thank you for this clarification, but this setting doesn't change anything, it just sorts the list of tags on the screen
    If I change page and come back to the tags they are in the wrong order again (the initial order of contribution)

    And it doesn't change anything when displaying tags in searches, for example

    If I add a new tag, it's added at the very bottom of the list, so there's no way to move it manually or sort the whole list to manage the display order

    What do I do if I want my ecotap tag to be between cablofil and IME?
    Apart from deleting everything and recreating all the tags one by one in the order I want.
    that I'm going to have to redo every time I add a new tag


    Thanks
    Gaëtan

    If the tag sort default state could be changed to be by Name, that would be ideal. 

    Taking it a bit further, perhaps even the creation of new tags could be made to fall into name sort order, not only in UI but in jcr?

    one more idea would be a custom workflow for admin to sort tags in name order in jcr.

     

    as manual workaround, i have been able to manually reorder tags in jcr using crxde.
