Default to Date Modified?

[beau]

I've been looking at Options to see if I can set Date Modified as the default sort, couldn't find anything. Can it be done?

Sort by Date Modified.
Once a sort has been set, it tends to stay that way (at least in 1.4beta).

(You'd also want to set Options | Indexes, Index date modified & Fast date modified sort.)

@therube Date Modified doesn't seem to work/stick for me. Per your advice I also set Options | Indexes, Index date modified & Fast date modified sort and I am running 1.4.0.713b.

Problem solved. As shown, the Results options page allows two different "sort first" options to be checked concurrently in which case the second option apparently prevails. These choices should be mutually exclusive.

I cannot understand how I can do above operation? Would you like to explain it in a different way because I want to set "date modified" as default.

Thank you.

I cannot see them to check.

Thank you.
