Sorting, well, Sort Categories

Hello!

I'm new to the website. Try as I may, I just can't seem to find a direct answer to this. I just wanted to know if it's possible to sort, or rather, rank items within a collection. For example, I wanted to sort the items within my Favorites collection, to sort of make a "Top 100", and I want to rank, say, El Beso de la Mujer Araña on the top 1, and, uh, El Aleph on the 2nd place. Is this possible?

If it is not possible, I guess I would be recommending this to further improve the website! That said, I'm already loving it here : )

Use a field you do not use for anything else (custom classification system or comments or private comments) to record the numbers and then sort by that column.

But remember that if it is not a numerical field, you need to use leading zeros - 001, 002 ... if you want it to sort correctly. Otherwise you get 1, 10, 100, 101...
