Moodle Admins - Automatically sort courses in a category using Re-sort Courses

Moodle LMS is one the most flexible and customizable open-source Learning Management System in the world. It allows you to add new features or customize existing features by using Moodle plugins. In this post we will see how you can use the Re-sort Courses Moodle plugin.

The Re-sort Courses Moodle plugin sorts a category page automatically as soon as a course has been added or modified. This can be helpful for the administrators to sort the courses in a category without any manual intervention.

In Moodle core, the admins can sort the courses within a category but that needs a manual task for each category. Moodle core does not take care that Moodle course categories are sorted automatically.

This Re-sort courses plugin helps you save a lot of time. After installing this plugin, as soon as a course has been added or modified in a category, the plugin verifies that the containing category page is automatically sorted just as it would be sorted when you change the sorting filter on the course category management page.

To have a fine grain control over your course categories, you can choose the default sort order as well as skip categories. You can download the latest version of the Re-sort courses Moodle plugin from the official plugin’s directory here.

This can provide one of the handy features for the Moodle administrators to get rid of this senseless job of pushing the sorting button manually.
