Hi, all!
I am wondering how this can be done in Wix:
I need a text-list with links to blog posts in alphabetical order that automatically updates when I add a new blog post.
So I have a page that is called “Alphabetical list”. Here the user will see all of my blog posts with headlines in alphabetical order. For example like this:
Alligators (with link to the blog post about Alligators )
Baboons (with link to the blog post about Baboons)
Dolphins (with link to the blog post about Dolphins)

When I publish a new blog post about Camels, the list updates and Camels is placed automatically on the list between Baboons and Dolphins.

Is this possible in Wix? Please help a newbie that is used to Wordpress :smiling_face:

Hey,

In order to implement this, you can use Wix Blog “Posts” Collection. As you can see in the article below, you can use the following fields:

  • Title (title)
    Description : The title of the post.

  • Post Page URL (postPageURL)
    Description : The relative URL of the post page on your published site.

Corvid: Wix Blog “Posts” Collection Fields

You can populate the required data from this collection to a repeater and sort it either using data binding :

About Filtering and Sorting Database Content Displayed in Page Elements

or code :

Good luck!
