Sort order filter on Manage Events page

Feature Requests

On the admin side, on the right side of the Manage Events page, the “Sort by” filter is locked as “best match” with no ability to change it. This is causing confusion for our editors because when they search by keyword or filter for upcoming events, they expect the results to appear in chronological order and they sometimes appear in random date order - even identical recurring events. This makes it difficult for editors to find the event(s) they are looking for in the results.

Is it possible to change the default Sort by order to chronological, or at least to offer both chronological and best match options in a drop-down?

This has also bothered me on occasion, and I’d like to +1 the option to change the sort of results when doing a text search.

(I also have a guess for the reason for it: terms could match too many results, or LW uses search to only sort rather than filter, so any normal sort would give back a list nearly identical to a non-search.)
