Improved Logbook Sorting & Filtering

If I am not mistaken, logs are currently sorted by the date they are created. I would love to see a feature implemented that allows you to sort your logbooks manually by dragging them around, or even having a sorting feature to sort from “Old → New”, “Most QSOs”, “Most Recent”, etc.

There are two logs of mine that I use pretty frequently, but as I begin to create more logs for POTA activations, I find them starting to get lost at the bottom. A way to sort them by my preference, or through some sort of filtering would be something I would love to see!

@W2DIY Hey Daniel,

We actually already have this on the roadmap as a mini feature! Great suggestion though!

To add on to the original suggestion, I personally would love to see FOLDERS that we can put our logbooks in.

Some ways I would use folders is for different categories like POTA with all of my POTA logs, Contests for all my contest logs, and I do a lot of remote station operation and have different logbooks for that, so I would also create a folder to keep those all together.

Just a thought that came to mind and thought I would add it on here!

@W2DIY Hey Daniel,

We’ve got several new designs ready for some changes to the logbook lists. While folders aren’t currently apart of that I do think you’ll find these changes to be very helpful! :wink: I’ll add this to the list of suggestions though!

Thanks & 73

Current plans for logbook search, sorting and filtering improvements:

  • Ability to add Favorites
  • Search by logbook name
  • Add sorting by number of QSOs
  • Persist your sorting options across sessions

Search, filter and sort is heavily dependent on database capabilities, so we are planning to do this in another 1.5 months after we finish our database upgrade!
