Custom Default Sorting of Post List Column in Backend

    Is there any way to make the plugin sort the post list column in a certain way (for example: from oldest to newest) by default?

    I think now you have to click on the column title – sometimes twice before it will sort in the desired way. Any setting for that? Thanks!

    Hi, it is possible. Just add this snippet to the end of your functions.php file.

    function orderby_modified_posts( $query ) {
    if( is_admin() ) {
	$query->set( 'orderby', 'modified' );
        $query->set( 'order', 'asc' );
    }
}
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'orderby_modified_posts' );

    Thanks
