Hi Ranju,

This is non-intuitive, I think you need:

"date;truncate=4,reverse"

The truncate=4 will break off the year (e.g. 2021-04-23 becomes 2021) and the reverse as you might guess reverses the order.  Here is an example of a view using this configuration:

Hi list,

we have been asked to add group by "date" as an additional option on all the views we have. I can do that by adding "date" in the variations section (like below) for each view.

variations => [

                        "creators_name;first_letter",

                        "type",

                        "date",

                        "DEFAULT" ],

This is fine, only thing is the date is in ascending order i.e. oldest one first. We would like it to be the other way i.e. newest one first.

Would anyone know what do I need to do ? I tried using "date;-year"  , thinking this might set the date in reverse order but that does not seem to work.

Any help will be appreciated!

Best regards,
Ranju
