Overview

Search sorting is the way the KanBo Search results are ordered. You can sort search results by several options:

  • Relevancy
  • Oldest
  • Newest
  • Due date or card date (cards only)

Sorting does not work for documents and users.

  2. Select the preferred option.

Search sorting options

Relevancy

Search results are based on the identity of the user. Therefore, different users may receive different results for the same query.

Aspects considered when displaying search results:

  • Assigned members
  • Card blockers
  • Creation date
  • Connection with My Space
  • Date of your last interaction or visit 

Oldest

Search results are listed by the date they were created. The oldest appears at the top of the list. This applies to comments, spaces, and workspaces.

Newest

Results are sorted by the date of the last action. The most recent appears at the top of the list. This applies to comments, spaces, and workspaces.

Due date and start date

This option works for cards only. You can sort cards by their time dependencies.

Note the difference between ASC and DESC phrases:

  • ASC – ascending sort
  • DESC – descending sort
