This is in relation to adding hubs to the home screen from Collections. As of now it’s only possible to see the items within collections in ascending order, this means that even if i make a smart collection (Latest movies in Horror), the first movie to appear in the home screen hub will always be the oldest and it’s not so convenient. I use the opportunity of this post to thank the Plex team for adding this new feature (collections on home screen), now our home screens can become truly personal! I’ve been really looking forward for this feature. ---

You can change the sort order in Smart Collections when you create or edit the advanced filters ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/plex/original/3X/9/6/968ca14f79a4b9ed618d0505c9580e0ade3fc9c4.jpeg) ---

As brenthardy62 pointed out, you can currently do this for smart collections (built from the new advanced filter). Beyond that this topic is already covered in an existing suggestion. Please vote/comment in that existing thread instead of posting a duplicate that’ll result in votes getting distracted/dispersed. > [@Sort collections by descending release date](https://forums.plex.tv/t/sort-collections-by-descending-release-date/405531): > > We already can soft the collection by title or by release date. When sorted by release date, the oldest item is first and the newest is last. Entering a large collection on TV apps needs you to scroll through all old movies to reach the newly added ones. Please add a setting in the collection preference window to choose ascenting or descending release date order. Thx a lot. PS: Maybe there is already a request like this. I searched a while but did not find this. Therefore closing this thread. ---
