Search results default as “order by” relevance - the relevance order doesn’t work well for our content, and often serves up search results that are not relevant at all.  I would like to set my search results to default to “most recent” they are the assets the majority of our end users are looking for.  Is this something we can enhance in the future to choose our default results order? 

Great to see you in the Community ​@julie muhlethaler! Thank you for taking the time to ask your question. Indeed I can understand the importance of the order relevance. I have submitted this insight as a product request on your behalf.


100% I’ve thought the same thing, it would be great to change the default behaviour to most recent. Most relevant would be more appropriate for natural language search.


I totally agree, the most relevant is a mystery to me what constitutes as relevant. I’ve had many requests from our users as well to change the default to most recent. Is there anyone here that has a need or uses the ‘most relevant’ sorting?


Hi, FYI the default sort order for our Bynder instances was changed to "Date added” by our CSM.

@Ryanne Perry can the product request be extended to include the following:

  • custom sort, similar to in Excel.
    I.e. sorting based on multiple criteria in a selected sort order.
    In Excel that would be "Sort by … Then by”, which can be extended.
  • preferred sort order can be saved as a personal preference

@voey oooh that’s good to know I’ll ask Support right away to change that for us to date added.
Correction, I misunderstood, we already have that, i have said nothing :)


Thank you for the support an additional information ​@voey. Yes, I have submitted the product request on your behalf.
