Delete Branch "%!s()"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?

Describe the feature you'd like
The shelf showing the Books can be sorted on the fly by
Name,Creation DateandUpdated Date, I miss that feature however in the Book Outline View, as I've mocked up in the image below.The pages within a chapter should follow the sorting order, so if sorted by
Updated Datethe chapter with the most recent update is listed atop and the pages within the chapter are sorted accordingly.In addition to the 3 sorting options
Name,Creation DateandUpdated Dateof courseManual Order(or probably better:User Defined???) is also needed.Describe the benefits this would bring to existing BookStack users
Background is that Books are often a messy work in progress with lots of chapters and even more pages. To find/see the newer pages in a Book which one has recently/ the last time worked on, it would be nice to be able to sort them optionally by Updated Date. Yes, there is the
Recently Updated Pagesview, but that’s spreading across all books, so has a different taste/use case.Can the goal of this request already be achieved via other means?
Not really. The
Recently Updated Pagesview isn’t quite the same, when you have many Book, Pages and Users on the system.Have you searched for an existing open/closed issue?
How long have you been using BookStack?
Since 2019.
