How to make Repeating Group Descending?

I want to display the items in my repeating group from the Last item to the 1st item, instead of vice versa. This is so that the first thing that the user sees are the newest items that have been added to the repeating group, which would be the last items.

I’ve tried using fields and sorting but I feel like there must be a simple way to do it. I just want my same repeating group, but in reverse(descending).

Any ideas?

Hi there, @noviceBubbleUser2… this should be what you are looking for…

Hi @mikeloc and thanks for the reply!

That’s actually similar to the current setup that I’m using.


The issue is, I don’t want to display them in order of Creation Date(or any other sort by fields).

It is a Repeating group of a user’s social media “saved posts”. If a user saves a really old post, it will display last, even though they just saved it. Basically, I want the Descending option without Sorting it by creation date.

Ah, okay… so you want posts a user has saved to display with the most recently saved posts at the top of the list… is that the idea? If so, does a saved post have a date associated with it? You have to sort in descending order by something, so you could sort by the saved date of the post instead of the date when the post was originally created.

Does that make sense?

@mikeloc Thanks! I created a new data type called “Saved Posts”. When the user clicks save, they add the post to that type in the field “Post”. Then I set the Repeating Group to sort by: Created Date.

It seems to be working!
